Local, honest boiler servicing for Ongar homes

We've been doing boiler services in Ongar long enough to know which streets have shared chimneys, which estates have undersized gas supplies, and which boilers tend to fail first.

That experience means we get the spec right at the survey, not halfway through the install.

And we don't cut corners on the bits you can't see — proper pipework, magnetic filter, full system flush where needed.

Quick answers on boiler servicing in Ongar

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.

How long does a service take?

Usually 45–60 minutes for a domestic boiler in normal condition.

Do you do landlord CP12 certificates?

Yes — combined service + CP12 packages available, with bulk pricing for landlords with multiple properties.
