Can’t find the answer to your boiler repair question? Get in touch with The London Plumbing Company!

What should I do if my boiler breaks down and needs a repair?

First, don’t panic! But there’s a set drill to follow:
– Turn off your boiler’s mains power
– If it’s a gas boiler, check that the pilot light has gone out
– See whether you can spot any obvious causes for the problem, e.g. low water pressure
– Ring your trusted, local Gas Safe Registered boiler engineer, like The London Plumbing Company, for advice
– Ask us for a quote to get your boiler repair underway

If you understand the problems to look for, make yourself familiar with these steps, and know how you can contact a reliable heating system engineer from The London Plumbing Company, then you can nip a lot of problems in the bud, and get boiler repairs in South London carried out before a small issue potentially becomes a much bigger deal.

How do I know if I need a boiler repair?

There are five tell-tale signs that your boiler may need a boiler repair, so if you notice any of these points get in touch with The London Plumbing Company for a prompt appointment:

Radiators not warming up, or no hot water: The first and most obvious sign of a problem that may need a boiler repair. First, check that your thermostat is set properly. If it is, and your timer is also set to be providing heat and hot water at the time you check, then you may have a problem that needs investigating by a Gas Safe Registered heating engineer from The London Plumbing Company
Odd noises from your pipework: Noises such as banging, clanging or something that sounds like a boiling kettle usually suggest something’s wrong inside your heating system’s pipework  It could be caused by limescale build-up, or possibly a loose part, but either can be dealt with by an experienced boiler repair engineer from The London Plumbing Company.
Water leaks from around your boiler: This is a sure sign of a problem, and you should get The London Plumbing Company’s expert gas engineers round to investigate it ASAP.
Low water pressure: If your boiler has a pressure gauge (most reasonably modern boilers do), and the needle has dropped to lower than usual, it suggests there’s a leak, or you might have an airlock in your system. A boiler repair from The London Plumbing Company will be able to resolve this, getting your water pressure back to normal promptly
Pilot light going out: This can have some minor causes which could be sorted by simply re-igniting it – something you should always be sure you know how to do. But if it persists there may be a bigger problem, possibly with your gas supply, the ignition system, or your thermocouple. These are all problems a Gas Safe engineer from The London Plumbing Company can properly and thoroughly investigate for you.

Our teams and fully-equipped vans are out and about all over South London, getting to you quickly if you find yourself in need of an emergency boiler repair. So don’t let any of these signs develop into a bigger problem – call us to get help and advice from one of our team of knowledgeable and experienced gas and heating servicing and repair experts.

How long should my boiler last?

A typical boiler’s lifespan is between 10 and 15 years. Many boiler manufacturers offer generous warranties on their appliances, but these will often only stay current if you have your boiler serviced regularly.

The lifespan of your boiler might also depend on how heavily it’s used, and its location. So a well sheltered spot, well away from any sources of moisture, yet which is still easily accessible, is the ideal place to have one installed, and could have a bearing on its longevity.

Should I book a boiler repair if my boiler has got a gas leak?

There are three main signs to look out for which often point to a gas leak:
Dark stains on your boiler or the walls or ceiling around it: this is a sign that your gas flue is the source of a leak, and needs attention.
A slight smell: while the deadly carbon monoxide gas is odourless and colourless, when it’s released in your home it’s usually mixed with other gases so that it can be smelled and warn you that you should get your boiler looked at.
Condensation in the room housing your boiler: This won’t be caused by the presence of carbon monoxide in itself, but is a likely sign of a poorly ventilated boiler. Carbon monoxide and other gases can linger in your house, and their build-up is a danger sign. You need, by law, to have a carbon monoxide detector installed, and this will be activated if you have a problem with a build-up of the gas.

If you notice any of these signs, and you live in South London, Wandsworth or Wimbledon, you should immediately get in touch with The London Plumbing Co and one of our knowledgeable on-call boiler repair engineers will get to you as soon as possible to carry out any boiler repairs needed, putting your mind at rest.

Should I repair or replace my boiler?

If they are spotted promptly, and properly dealt with, many issues with a gas boiler can be put right with a professional boiler repair. All boilers have a number of parts which, over time, will suffer wear and tear, affecting their performance, and many can be quickly and economically replaced during a boiler repair from The London Plumbing Company.

If your boiler has been serviced regularly, this should mean there’s much less chance of it suffering any unforeseen problems which might need the attention of boiler repair South London specialists. But it can also help a boiler last longer, as replacing those parts worst affected by wear and tear will keep your whole system running more efficiently, putting less stress on the hidden parts which are most difficult and expensive to fix.

But when your boiler has reached the end of its life, it may be a false economy to try to keep it working, as you won’t benefit from the cost savings that having a more modern and more efficient boiler will bring.

Think you might need a new boiler installation, rather than a boiler repair? Contact The London Plumbing Company to request a home survey and quote for a new, energy-efficient boiler from a leading manufacturer.

Can I carry out boiler repairs myself?

We don’t recommend that you repair your boiler yourself. If your boiler is still under its manufacturer’s warranty, boiler repairs should be done by an accredited Gas Safe Registered professional heating engineer such as The London Plumbing Company.

Carrying out boiler repairs yourself will almost certainly void this warranty, meaning that you won’t be able to rely on it if you need to make a claim. Not only that, but boiler repairs can be complex and require expert understanding and knowledge. Carrying out boiler repairs yourself is likely to be dangerous – protect your home and household with a professional boiler repair in South London from The London Plumbing Company.

Why do I need a boiler service? Expert advice from The London Plumbing Company

We all know how important it is that we get our cars and other vehicles serviced regularly – but did you know that the same applies to lots of our household appliances?

Why do I need a boiler service?
The London Plumbing Company answers the question: Why do I need a boiler service?

Your boiler, central heating and hot water system needs an annual service, not only validating your manufacturer’s warranty but helping to identify issues early to prevent a boiler breakdown in the future.

So why is a boiler service from The London Plumbing Company beneficial for you and your South London property? Our Gas Safe Registered boiler servicing engineers advise as to how a regular boiler service and a few timely checks can easily prevent some major and potentially costly problems with your most important household appliance.

A boiler service with The London Plumbing Company spots problems early

Given that it works far harder during colder months, you could be excused for thinking that, once you’ve passed through another of these colder periods, you’re in the clear regarding the condition of your boiler.

But, just like your car, all can appear fine on the surface, while problems can develop and linger deep inside your boiler, central heating and hot water systems.

An annual boiler service with The London Plumbing Company pinpoints actual and potential problems, giving your Gas Safe Registered engineer the chance to fix issues there and then to stop them developing into much bigger headaches in the future.

If something is going to break down, it always seems to happen at the worst possible time. Avoid unexpected boiler breakdowns and book your boiler service with The London Plumbing Company’s fully-qualified South London heating and plumbing engineers, giving you reassurance that your boiler will be ready for action when you need it.

Boiler servicing costs less than installing a new boiler

Once a problem with your boiler gets past the stage when it can be repaired cost-effectively, installation of a new, replacement boiler is likely to be your only option.

Ward off unnecessary costs with a regular annual boiler service, wherever you live in South London. Call it ‘boilernomics’ if you like – a small, regular outlay on boiler servicing with The London Plumbing Company keeps your faithful hot water and central heating system working efficiently for far longer.

Our experienced team of Gas Safe Registered engineers work locally in Wandsworth, Wimbledon, Balham, Tooting and all parts of South London every day, carrying out professional boiler servicing each year that makes great financial sense.

Of course, if you own your home, the advantages of a boiler service are obvious. But they should be an even greater concern to you if you’re a landlord with a portfolio of properties covering South London.

Boiler servicing keeps Balham & South London landlords on the right side of the law

Efficient, safe and fully-functioning gas appliances, such as boilers, radiators, heaters and cookers are a major selling point to your tenants.

But you can’t simply have them fitted and then forget about them. More than 25 years ago, regulations were introduced to ensure that landlords take their responsibilities for tenants’ comfort and safety seriously.

The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 put three main responsibilities on any landlord:

  • Annual gas safety checks: Once a year, all gas appliances and flues need to be examined and passed as safe by a Gas Safe Registered engineer. They will then issue a Landlord Gas Safety Record confirming that all the checks needed have been done.
  • Details of this Gas Safety Record are provided to tenants: You have 28 days after having your boiler service in South London carried out and gas safety record certificate issued to give details of this to your property’s occupiers. Or if you are welcoming new tenants, you need to let them see this before they move in.
  • Proper maintenance of gas pipes, chimneys and appliances: Although this isn’t strictly covered by your annual gas safety check, you should have the tightness of your system and pipework checked, and visually examined yearly, where possible.

Boiler servicing helps South London properties keep their value

Whether you live in your own property in South London, or you rent it to someone else, keeping the fabric of the building and all its permanent fixtures in good working order makes all kinds of sense.

Whether it’s a flat, maisonette or house, keeping the gas boiler, heating and hot water systems fully functional, and addressing potential problems as early as possible, are wise moves at any time. But they become even more important when you want to either attract a new tenant, or if you’re looking to sell the property.

Any reputable letting agent will insist on seeing a property’s Gas Safety Record before they start marketing it to prospective tenants – so a boiler service should be one of your first priorities, no matter whether you’re a new or experienced landlord.

If you own your home, a regular boiler service at your South London property by The London Plumbing Company gives you the reassurance you need that your home’s hot water and central heating are safe and working properly. And again, a good maintenance record is a real asset when you want to sell.
