Common questions about boiler repairs in Bishop's Stortford

Are Glow-worm and Vaillant the same?

Same parent group, often shared componentry, but Glow-worm sits at a lower price point with shorter warranties. Good value for rental properties.

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.

Do you guarantee repairs?

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