Our emergency engineers reach Corringham in about 10 minutes from Bowers Gifford, at any hour. Most breakdown calls from Corringham are combi boilers, which suits a housing stock where 84% of homes run on mains gas. Scale from the hard water in the Thurrock area, around 263 ppm, is behind a good share of the overheating and hot water failures we attend.
No heating in the middle of winter, no hot water with a baby or an elderly relative in the house, or a boiler dripping water onto the floor all count as emergencies. We run a 24-hour emergency line on 01268 855605 for boiler breakdowns across Essex, every day of the year.
When you call, an engineer speaks to you, asks what the boiler is doing and gives you an honest arrival time. On arrival we make the boiler safe, diagnose the fault and repair it there and then where the part is on the van. If a part has to be ordered, we isolate the fault, get the heating or hot water running where we can and return to finish the job.
We are Gas Safe registered (925538), family run and based in Bowers Gifford, so our engineers are never far away. Emergency call-out starts from £120 and the repair price is agreed before any parts are fitted.

Questions about emergency boiler repair 24/7 in Corringham
How much is an emergency boiler call-out?
Emergency call-out starts from £120. That covers the engineer attending and diagnosing the fault. The repair itself is priced once we know what has failed, and we agree it with you before fitting anything.
How quickly can you get to me?
The emergency line is answered 24 hours a day and the engineer who speaks to you will tell you when they can be there. We are based in Bowers Gifford and cover the whole of Essex, so arrival time depends on where you are and where the engineer is when you call.
What counts as a boiler emergency?
No heating in cold weather, no hot water where someone vulnerable lives in the house, a boiler leaking water, or a boiler that has locked out with a smell of burning. If you are unsure, call and describe it. The engineer will tell you whether it can safely wait until morning.
I can smell gas. What should I do?
Turn the gas off at the meter, open windows and doors, do not switch anything electrical on or off, and call the National Gas Emergency number on 0800 111 999 first. Once the supply is safe, call us on 01268 855605 to find and repair the fault and get you reconnected.
