FAQ'S About Boilers

How much should a new boiler and installation cost?
Replacing your combi boiler or system boiler could cost anywhere between £600 -£900 for a lower-priced budget model. £900 – £1,200 for a mid-range model. £1,000 – £2,500 for a premium model. This all depends on the features and the actual boiler make. Also, the output of the boiler can also affect the price as higher-rated more powerful boilers will generally be more expensive. The cost of labour will also have to be factored in.
Can a plumber install a boiler?
When carrying out a new gas boiler installation you will need to ensure that you employ an actual Gas and Heating engineer. Although a plumber can work on the pipework and radiators that make up your central heating system it’s important they do not work on the gas pipe or the boiler. The Heating engineer needs to be Gas Safe qualified.
How long does it take to install a boiler?
On average 1-3 days.
We have carried out full boiler replacements within one day but each installation is different. Factors including location, new flue, old and new pipework will all have to be taken into account along with the complexity of the job. When you book a boiler quote we will gain a better understanding of your requirements and be able to give you an estimate of the time involved.
How long do boilers last?
Like all mechanical systems, a well-maintained and up-to-date boiler service will make sure your boiler lasts you the best part of 15 years, even longer with modern quality boilers on the market today. Warranties are always worth paying close attention to and with up to 12 years on some of our ranges this will give you peace of mind for years to come.
Does putting in a new boiler make a lot of mess?
If it’s a simple boiler change where we are swapping out old for new then there will be minimal disruption. The pipes running to the boiler may have to be altered and the brackets to the wall may have to be drilled out creating dust.
Don’t worry though, our Gas Engineers are all house trained and one of our core values is to leave your home as we found it!
On the other hand, if you’re relocating the boiler and changing the central heating system then this can create quite a bit of upheaval, especially if floors are being lifted.
Do I need new radiators with a new boiler?
Not necessarily. When you book us in for a home visit this will be part of our home survey. If you’ve been having issues with the radiators, such as cold spots, taking a long time to heat, etc then let the team know.
We can power flush the whole system during a boiler installation which helps the efficiency of the overall system.
How do you know when your boiler needs replacing?
1. Radiators take longer than usual to heat up
2. There is a bad smell coming from the boiler
3. Increase in your energy bills
4. Leaky Boiler
5. Strange or unusual noises coming from the central heating boiler
