Frequently asked questions — boiler repairs, Takeley

How quickly can you actually get out?

For genuine emergencies in Takeley — 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.

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.

Do you guarantee repairs?

Yes — 12 months on the workmanship and any parts we supply.
