Question 1

Which boiler brands do you install and recommend?

Accepted Answer

As a Baxi Approved Installer, we specialise in Baxi boilers and can offer extended warranties of up to 10 years. Baxi produce highly reliable, energy-efficient boilers with excellent value for money. We can also install other leading brands such as Worcester Bosch and Vaillant if required, and will recommend the best boiler for your home based on your property size, hot water demands, and budget rather than pushing a single brand.

Question 2

What does balancing a central heating system involve?

Accepted Answer

Balancing means adjusting the flow to each radiator so heat is distributed evenly, room by room, instead of the nearest radiators taking most of the heat. We usually balance the system alongside fitting or adjusting TRVs once it has been cleaned.

Question 3

How do I know my central heating needs a powerflush?

Accepted Answer

Common signs include radiators cold at the top or bottom even after bleeding, rooms that never reach a comfortable temperature, banging noises from the boiler, or black sludgy water when you bleed a radiator. Any of these in a Glen Top home is worth having checked.

Question 4

Are you Gas Safe registered?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating is Gas Safe registered, Register No. 640113, which you can verify directly on the Gas Safe Register. We only carry out central heating and gas work within that registration.

Question 5

Do you offer free quotes and estimates?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide free, no-obligation surveys and fixed written quotes for boiler installations, central heating work, and most plumbing jobs, so you know the full cost before agreeing to any work.

Question 6

Do I always need a new boiler if some rooms stay cold?

Accepted Answer

No. Cold rooms and uneven radiators are often a central heating problem, not a boiler fault, and a powerflush, a new magnetic filter or some balancing is frequently a far cheaper fix. We always recommend the proportionate solution first.

Question 7

Do you give a fixed price before starting work in Glen Top?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every central heating job is quoted as a fixed price once we have assessed your Glen Top property, so you know the full cost before anything begins. There is no obligation to book after the quote.

Question 8

Is a central heating check the same as a boiler service?

Accepted Answer

No. A boiler service covers the boiler itself, while a central heating check looks at radiators, valves, pipework and the existing filter across the whole system. We can assess both together so nothing in the system gets missed.

Question 9

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 10

What should I do if I smell gas in my home?

Accepted Answer

If you smell gas or suspect a leak, you should immediately open doors and windows to ventilate the area, turn off the gas supply at the meter (if safe to do so), avoid using any electrical switches, naked flames, or phones inside the property, leave the property, and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 immediately. Once the emergency has been handled, contact us during working hours for any follow-up repair work.
