Question 1

Do you offer a warranty on new boiler installations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Baxi installations can carry extended manufacturer warranties of up to 10 years when fitted by an Approved Installer such as ourselves, alongside our own workmanship. Exact warranty terms depend on the model and registration, which we confirm in writing at the time of installation.

Question 2

How can I check if an engineer is Gas Safe registered?

Accepted Answer

Every genuine Gas Safe registered engineer carries a Gas Safe ID card, and you can independently verify any engineer or business on the official Gas Safe Register website using their registration number. Our Register No. is 640113, and we are always happy for customers to check this themselves before any work begins.

Question 3

Are your prices fixed or do you charge by the hour?

Accepted Answer

Wherever possible we provide a fixed, written quote before work begins, covering installations, servicing and most plumbing jobs, so there are no surprises on the day. This is confirmed after a free survey or an honest phone conversation about the job.

Question 4

Can you install a boiler in a rented property for a landlord in Altham?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we regularly work with landlords across Altham and the wider Lancashire area. Alongside installation we can carry out the annual Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) once the new boiler is in place, keeping your rental property compliant from day one.

Question 5

Do I need to replace my radiators when I install a new boiler?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. If your existing radiators and pipework are in good condition and correctly sized, they can often be reused with a new boiler. We assess this during your free survey and only recommend changes where they genuinely improve efficiency or comfort.

Question 6

Can I get a Baxi boiler installed with an extended warranty in Altham?

Accepted Answer

Yes. As a Baxi Approved Installer we can offer extended manufacturer warranties of up to 10 years on Baxi boilers fitted in Altham. Where Worcester Bosch or Vaillant suits your property better, we will recommend that instead.

Question 7

How long does a boiler installation take in Altham?

Accepted Answer

A straightforward like-for-like combi swap usually takes one working day. Converting from a conventional or system boiler to a combi can take one to two days depending on the pipework. We confirm the expected timescale in your written quote before any work is booked.

Question 8

What types of boiler can you install, combi, system or conventional?

Accepted Answer

We install all three. Combi boilers heat water on demand with no cylinder and suit smaller homes. System boilers work with a cylinder for higher hot water demand. Conventional boilers use a cylinder and cold water tank, common in older properties with existing pipework we can often reuse.

Question 9

Will a new boiler reduce my energy bills?

Accepted Answer

A modern A-rated boiler is significantly more efficient than an older G or E-rated unit and can meaningfully reduce heating costs, especially if your current boiler is over 15 years old. The exact saving depends on your system, insulation and usage, so we avoid quoting a guaranteed figure.

Question 10

Should I repair my old boiler or replace it?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the boiler age, the cost of the specific repair, and how often it has broken down before. We give an honest recommendation based on your situation rather than defaulting to the more expensive option, and can quote for both so you can decide.
