Common questions about boiler servicing in Thaxted
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.
