Common questions about boiler repairs in Takeley
Where do boiler leaks usually come from?▾
Most common: pressure relief valve discharging because system pressure is too high, a perished pump seal, or a failing heat exchanger on older units. We diagnose properly rather than guess.
Should I turn the boiler off?▾
If water is actively dripping and you can see it pooling, yes — switch the boiler off at the spur, and turn the system pressure down via the filling loop if you can. Then call us.
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 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.
