Boiler Service
Regular servicing is essential for complete safety and
efficiency. An Inadequately cared for boiler can be risky,
causing carbon monoxide poisoning. Maintenance extends a boilers
life; a well-kept one lasts more than 10 years, while a neglected
one might need replacement in a few years.
Our approach to boiler servicing distinguishes us from the
typical services provided by insurance companies, which often
involve a brief 15-minute inspection and minimal maintenance. We
take great pride in our commitment to delivering a comprehensive
and thorough service that prioritises both the longevity and
safety of your boiler.

structure, commonly referred to as the flue.
