No hot water in Hockerill? Boiler repairs sorted properly
No hot water but heating still works? On a combi, that's almost always a diverter valve, diaphragm or PCB issue. We carry the common parts, diagnose on-site and usually get it fixed in one visit across Hockerill. Most Hockerill repair callouts we diagnose and fix on the first visit — common parts (PRVs, diverters, pumps, PCBs) live on the van.

About Hockerill
Older Stortford district with Victorian and Edwardian terraces — flue routing requires careful planning.
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

Learn moreLocal, honest boiler repairs for Hockerill homes
We've been doing boiler repairs in Bishop's Stortford 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.
What happens when you book boiler repairs with us
Fast response
Same-day where possible — especially for vulnerable customers or no-heat in winter.
Honest diagnosis
If your boiler is past saving, we'll tell you. We won't sell you a £400 repair on a 16-year-old unit.
Repair, replace, or part-exchange
Three options where appropriate, with honest cost/benefit on each.
Aftercare
We log the repair, register the parts warranty, and give you a service reminder.
boiler repairs in Hockerill: questions we get a lot
Why have I lost hot water but heating still works?▾
On a combi boiler this is the classic diverter valve symptom — the valve that switches the flame between heating and hot water has stuck. Common, and usually a one-visit fix.
How much will it cost?▾
Diverter valve replacement on most boilers is £180–£320 fitted. We'll give you a fixed price after diagnosis before any work starts.
How fast can you come out?▾
We aim for same-day on no-heat and no-hot-water situations. Tell us when you call if anyone elderly or with young children is in the property — we prioritise.
Do you guarantee repairs?▾
Yes — 12 months on the workmanship and any parts we supply.
