About Sheering

Established village between Harlow and Sawbridgeworth. Strong mix of post-war semi-detached, modern infill and a smaller core of older period properties along the main road.

Predominantly post-war semis with combi-suitable layouts. Some older detached on the periphery.

  • Conservation area restrictions affect external flue siting on period properties
  • Some streets have shared chimney stacks where flue routing needs coordination
  • High Wych and rural fringes occasionally on LPG rather than mains gas

Why Sheering customers pick us for boiler servicing

We've been doing boiler services in Sawbridgeworth 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.

We service a lot of Worcester Greenstar units installed across the executive estates — 2015–2018 batch are due first or second compressor service now.

Things Sheering customers usually ask about boiler servicing

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.

How often should a boiler be serviced?

Once a year. It's almost always required to keep the manufacturer's warranty valid, and it catches small issues before they become breakdowns.
