About Thorley

South-west Stortford with strong post-war housing stock. Steady volume of boiler swaps.

Strong mix — Victorian terraces in the old centre, post-war housing in Thorley, and large new-build estates expanding north.

  • New-build combi boilers approaching first major service interval
  • Victorian terrace flue routing constraints
  • Hard water from the chalk aquifer accelerates scale build-up in heat exchangers

Thorley homeowners trust us for boiler servicing — here's why

Our boiler servicing work in Bishop's Stortford is built around three things: doing it properly, charging fairly, and being there afterwards if you need us.

That last bit matters — a lot of installers vanish the moment the invoice clears. We don't.

If something plays up in the first year, we come back and sort it. No quibbles, no callout fee.

Frequently asked questions — boiler servicing, Thorley

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 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.

Do you do landlord CP12 certificates?

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