Things Magdalen Laver customers usually ask about boiler repairs

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.

Do you charge a callout fee?

We charge a clear diagnostic fee (told to you upfront before we attend). It covers proper on-site diagnosis. The repair itself is then quoted as a fixed price you agree before any work starts.

Do you guarantee repairs?

Yes — 12 months on the workmanship and any parts we supply.
