From first call to handover — our boiler repairs routine

1

Fast response

Same-day where possible — especially for vulnerable customers or no-heat in winter.

2

Honest diagnosis

If your boiler is past saving, we'll tell you. We won't sell you a £400 repair on a 16-year-old unit.

3

Repair, replace, or part-exchange

Three options where appropriate, with honest cost/benefit on each.

4

Aftercare

We log the repair, register the parts warranty, and give you a service reminder.

Frequently asked questions — boiler repairs, Great Amwell

How quickly can you actually get out?

For genuine emergencies in Great Amwell — no heat, no hot water, an active leak — we aim for same-day. We'll tell you straight when we call back if a faster response isn't possible.

Do you charge an emergency callout fee?

We charge a clear diagnostic fee, told to you upfront before we set off. The repair itself is then quoted as a fixed price you agree before any work starts.

Are you 24/7?

We aren't a true 24-hour service — we're a small family business — but we pick up early and stay late, and we prioritise vulnerable households and no-heat situations through the day.

Do you charge a callout fee?

We charge a clear diagnostic fee (told to you upfront before we attend). It covers proper on-site diagnosis. The repair itself is then quoted as a fixed price you agree before any work starts.

Is it worth repairing an old boiler?

Honest answer: if it's over 12 years old and the repair is more than £400, replacement usually makes more financial sense. We'll lay out both options without pressure.
