Common Boiler Repair Problems
Our fully qualified engineers have tackled a host of gas repairs and boiler repairs in the past. Here are some of the most frequent boiler faults they have experienced and fixed.
Your boiler makes kettle-like noises
You know that sound that kettles make when they’re filled with boiling water? If your boiler is making banging noises, it is working harder than usual to heat the water. The reason is straightforward. Water contains calcium, magnesium, and other minerals that can solidify into limescale, especially hard water.
When limescale accumulates, it forms a coating on the pipes, which can occasionally obstruct water flow. This causes a new boiler to work harder, hence the noises. Our gas and heating engineers are well-versed in this issue and know how to deal with it.
There is dripping and leaking
Conventional boilers can leak from a variety of locations for a variety of reasons. It could be the result of a corroded heat exchanger, loose joints, corroded pipes, loose joints, and so on. Before addressing the issue, the technician must first identify the cause and trace the dripping back to its source.
The thermostat is faulty
The thermostat in your boiler system is an important component of the machine that helps to keep the temperature at the desired setpoint. If it’s not working properly, you’ll notice that the water isn’t as hot as you need it to be or that the heating in your home switches on and off at random. When a thermostat fails, the first step is to ensure that the proper settings are in place. If the problem turns out to be something else, the thermostat may need to be replaced.
There is no hot water
Another common issue is the inability of the boiler to heat the water. This problem can be caused by a number of factors, including a faulty valve, a clogged heat exchanger, or a faulty pilot light. If you encounter such a problem, you should have one of our Gas Safe registered engineers inspect the area and determine the root cause.
The pressure is low or high
The circulation of water in the boiler is made possible by high pressure. When there is a lack of water pressure in the system, it does not function properly. There could be a leak or something else going on. We are here for you, equipped with the best tools and ready to restore hot water flow in an efficient manner, regardless of the type of central heating repairs you require.
The condense pipe may have frozen
Condensate pipes are commonly used in newer models to eliminate waste gas. As outdoor temperatures drop during the winter, the risk of your condensate pipe freezing increases. This error will be displayed on the interface of modern devices. If this is the case, the pipe must be heated and defrosted.
The pilot lights turns off
This is typically a problem with older models that require a pilot light to ignite. If the light keeps going out, the thermocouple may be faulty. Overall, you should consult with a qualified specialist.
The boiler doesn't turn on
If the system will not ignite, you may be dealing with an electrical problem. Check that your boiler system is properly connected. You should also look at other appliances in the house. If neither of them turns on, you should call an electrician to inspect the problem further and perform any necessary electrical work.
The radiators are at fault
This is a problem if some of your radiators suddenly stop getting as hot as they should. Do you notice any cold patches as you run your hand across the surface? Is the radiator at the bottom cold? This means that the heat is not being distributed evenly as a result of sludge buildup or an excess of air within the devices.
FAQ on Emergency Boiler Repairs
How soon can you come to fix my boiler?
We strive to be as quick as possible. Given that you are in an emergency, our gas and heating engineers will usually try to visit you the same day you call.
How long does a boiler service take to complete?
It’s difficult to say because every job is different. The diagnostic will take between 20 and 45 minutes on average. Large-scale repairs may take longer to complete.
How much will it cost me to have my faulty boiler fixed?
If you want to know how much your faulty boiler repair will cost, contact us and request a quote. The more information you provide, the more accurate the estimate. We have no hidden fees to worry about because we provide transparent pricing.
Can you repair an old boiler or central heating system?
Without a doubt. We can repair various boiler types regardless of age, and we always strive to provide a first-rate service. However, keep in mind that if the appliance is more than ten years old, we may not be able to find replacement parts. This is determined by the heating suppliers and manufacturers.
How often should I replace my boiler?
Most new boilers function well for 10-15 years as long as they are taken care of. If you have your boiler serviced on a yearly basis, this can help extend its lifespan and keep it working at maximum efficiency.
My energy bills were high this season. Is there a problem with the central heating system?
If the season isn’t unusually colder than usual, and if your area’s electric rates haven’t been raised, but you’re still getting high electric bills, there could be a problem with the entire system. A more thorough investigation is required to identify a faulty component.
Why do I need a power flush?
It will take longer for your radiators to heat up if they have cold spots. They may require internal cleaning, in which case a power flush will be most beneficial.
