BOILER REPAIRS

Whilst it can be tempting to put off arranging boiler repairs if your heating is still working and you are still getting hot water but if you notice that something just isn't right - it could be a false economy to put a boiler repair off.

At best you may simply be paying more for your heating and hot water as your boiler is simply not working efficiently. At worst you could have a gas leak, or carbon monoxide circulating in your home which can have a serious detrimental impact on you and your families health.

Whilst it may be tempting for DIY enthusiast to have a tinker and try to follow a YouTube video, or even to ask a plumber mate, repair work on your gas boiler should be carried out by a gas safe engineer. When we use the word 'should' this is in fact a requirement by law.

If you notice something like smell of gas in your home you should definitely not delay getting in touch. In fact if you have been out of your property and notice a strong smell of gas just before entering you must take great care not to switch on a light or do anything which can trigger a gas explosion. Contact a professional as soon as possible. A gas engineer will be able to provide some practical advise which should be followed and if possible make arrangements to get to your home as soon as possible.

For less serious issues arranging a repair as soon as you spot something unusual could save you many times the cost if you delay and your boiler struggles on at the expense of damaging more parts.

BOILER REPAIRS DERBY

Over the years we have carried out many boiler repairs in Derby and with so many different makes and types of boilers there can be a wide variety of things that can go wrong with a  boiler. That said, considering the amount of work they are put through there are one of the longest lasting 'machines' you will find in a household.

When a fault occurs in a gas boiler there as some issues that are more prone to require a boiler repair than others. One of these is a leaking or malfunctioning seal, whilst another is an issue with a gas pipe or other pipe in the heating system. Pipe issues can sometimes be more tricky to detect as both water and gas will seep from the initial point of leakage and tracking this back to point of failure can cause some disruption. External pipe damage happens more often in the winter as freezing can cause water expansion through ide formation to cause a water pipe to burst. We always advise homeowners to set your heating to continue to circulate 24 hours a day at a low level to prevent water from freezing.

The third most common repair issue related to broken valves or valves which simply are working properly. These are a little easier to identify and fix, provided any replacement parts are readily available.

COMBI BOILER REPAIR DERBY

Combi boiler repairs are one of the more common boiler types to need repair. This is generally because the boiler has two functions all in the same unit - providing hot water and powering the central heating.  By simply having all components in one unit it follows that if there is a problem with one of the two functions it will still be in the same boiler. For regular and system boilers the hot water tank has its own heating for the hot water taking some of the burden from the boiler unit.

Fortunately our team are very familiar with combi boiler repairs and as a general rule if a replacement part is necessary these are generally quite easy to get hold of allowing a repair to be done quickly.
