Boiler Service £55.00 Inc vat Landlord Gas Safety Cert £60.00 Inc vat
If you’re anything like us you’ve seen a plumber of central heating engineer waltz in, spend five minutes tinkering, then leave a hefty bill at least once in your life. Cowboys aren’t the norm, but there are enough of them around to make many people looking for annual boiler servicing wary.
In the hope of demystifying what actually happens during your the course of your boiler being serviced, as well as providing you a checklist of items to make sure your boiler service engineer covers all the bases, we've summed up what happens during the process below.
- Boiler flue output analysed
- Pipework inspected, with ventilation and clearance check
- Full testing of all boiler components and functionality
- Disassembly and cleaning of key components
- Replacement of any boiler components that are faulty or nearing end of life
Of course there’s a great deal more to it than that, but without becoming a boiler servicing engineer yourself you probably don’t need to know much more! So long as your boiler service incorporates those five broad requirements any run-of-the-mill problems will be detected and fixed.
Beware of annual safety checks, boiler safety checks and interim boiler service and quick boiler service packages. Sometimes these can seem like full annual boiler services, but on closer inspection they might cover only a fraction of the tasks that need to be carried out during a service.
