Boiler Servicing in Benfleet

We are about 5 minutes from Benfleet by van, which is why many households in the Castle Point area put us on a service plan and let us remind them when the service is due. The very hard water here, about 318 ppm, and the fact that 86% of homes rely on a gas boiler make a yearly check worth keeping up.

An annual boiler service checks that the boiler is burning cleanly, venting safely and running at the pressures and gas rate the manufacturer intended. It is the one job that catches small faults before they become breakdowns, and most manufacturer warranties require it every year.

Our engineer inspects the boiler, flue and pipework, runs a flue gas analysis with a calibrated analyser, checks the gas pressure and gas rate, inspects seals, the burner and the heat exchanger, tests the safety devices, checks the system pressure, expansion vessel and filter, and records the results for your warranty file. Anything that needs attention is explained and priced separately.

We service all makes, including Baxi, Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal and Glow-worm, and are Gas Safe registered (925538). You can book a one-off service or join a service plan from £8.99 a month, which includes the annual service, priority call-out and warranty management.
