What is a Boiler Service?

Professional boiler servicing is a comprehensive maintenance procedure performed by Gas Safe registered engineers to ensure your heating system operates at peak efficiency and safety. During this vital service, technicians thoroughly clean components, inspect for wear and tear, test pressure systems, and verify that all safety mechanisms function correctly, helping prevent unexpected breakdowns and extending your boiler's operational lifespan.

What Action to Take When Your Boiler Shows Problems

If you notice unusual noises, pressure fluctuations, heating inconsistencies, or any performance issues with your boiler, contact our emergency Breakdown team immediately at 0121 674 4283. Addressing minor problems promptly can prevent major system failures and protect your family from potential hazards.

What's the Duration of a Boiler Service

A standard boiler service typically requires 30-60 minutes to complete properly, though this can vary based on boiler type, age, condition, and any maintenance issues discovered during inspection. Our engineers always take the necessary time to ensure your system receives thorough attention without rushing through critical safety checks.

How Frequently Should a Boiler be serviced?

Industry experts and manufacturers universally recommend annual boiler servicing to maintain optimal performance, prevent costly emergency repairs, and ensure continued safety.

THANK YOU to Ash and the team at Vulcan Heating. Not only did they do a 21/ service of a really old boiler and not try and upsell us anything we didn't need - they also fixed an aggressive tap we had just to be good eggs! Friendly, able and reliable 🙂
