If you suspect a gas smell or carbon monoxide leak, leave the property immediately and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999. Do not attempt any repairs yourself.
Boiler faults can interrupt your heating and hot water supply. A professional assessment helps identify the cause of the problem and determine the appropriate repair.

Any work on a gas boiler must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Before booking, you can check an engineer’s ID and registration on the Gas Safe Register.
Check your thermostat settings and look for any boiler error codes. Follow only the basic checks permitted by the manufacturer’s instructions. If the problem continues, contact a qualified heating engineer.
Possible causes include trapped air, faulty radiator valves, poor water circulation or a wider heating system fault. A professional assessment can help identify the cause.
A boiler may operate while a fault prevents it from supplying hot water correctly. The cause depends on the boiler type and system configuration, so further assessment may be needed.
Repeated pressure loss can indicate a leak, a faulty component or another system issue. If the pressure continues to drop, arrange an assessment instead of repeatedly topping up the system without investigating the cause.
Repair times depend on the nature of the fault, engineer availability and whether replacement parts are required. Contact JH Plumbing & Heating Solutions to discuss your problem and check availability.
This depends on the boiler’s age, condition, repair history, efficiency and the cost of the work required. A qualified engineer can assess the problem and explain the practical options.
Costs vary according to the fault, diagnostic work, labour and any replacement parts needed. Request a quote based on your specific heating issue.
