Common causes

  • Age and wear on components that are past their design life
  • Lack of annual servicing and maintenance
  • Sludge, scale and poor water quality in the system
  • Changes to the property that outgrew the original system

What's involved

1

On-site assessment of the current system and the fault or requirement.

2

Work carried out to Gas Safe and manufacturer standards, with the system tested before handover.

3

Clear explanation of what was done, what was found and what to watch for.

4

Paperwork where it matters: service records, certificates and warranty documentation.

Prevention — stop it happening again

Service yearly

An annual service catches heating faults while they're cheap and keeps warranties valid.

Bleed and balance

Bleed radiators in autumn and ask your engineer to balance the system — even heating, lower bills.

Protect the water

Inhibitor and a magnetic filter stop sludge — the most common heating killer.

Test your CO alarm

If you have gas heating, a working carbon monoxide alarm is non-negotiable.

For landlords

Landlords: your repair duties

As a landlord you must keep the property's water, heating, sanitary and drainage systems in good working order and fix them promptly when they fail. You're responsible for structural repairs, the boiler and heating system, plumbing and electrics. Tenants should report faults in writing — and you should respond fast, because a small leak left unattended becomes a big claim.
