An annual service matters more in Tolleshunt D'Arcy than in soft water areas, because the Maldon area water is hard at around 288 ppm and scale builds on the heat exchanger every year the boiler runs. With 13% of Tolleshunt D'Arcy homes on mains gas, we service a lot of combis here. We are around 35 minutes from Tolleshunt D'Arcy.
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.

Questions about boiler servicing in Tolleshunt D'Arcy
How much does a boiler service cost?
Ask us for a one-off price for your boiler when you call. Plan 1 at £8.99 a month, including VAT, covers the annual service, priority call-out and manufacturer warranty management on a 12-month minimum term. Landlords can add the gas safety certificate on Plan 3 at £12.99 a month.
How quickly can you book a service?
A service is planned work, so we book it at a time that suits you rather than the first available slot. Call 01268 855605 or use the booking form and we will offer dates. If the boiler has a fault, book a repair instead so the engineer comes prepared.
How often should a boiler be serviced?
Once a year. Most manufacturer warranties are conditional on an annual service by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and a boiler that is checked yearly is far less likely to fail in the first cold week of winter. Our plans send you a reminder when the service falls due.
What is the difference between a service and a gas safety check?
A gas safety check confirms the appliance is safe to use and is what a landlord's CP12 records. A service goes further, inspecting and cleaning components and checking the boiler is running to the manufacturer's figures. Landlords usually have both done on the same visit.

Tolleshunt D'Arcy is 24.6 miles from our base in Bowers Gifford, around 35 minutes by van. Next-day appointments for repairs and installs, and emergencies as availability allows. Typical drive time around 35 minutes.
