Question 1

How much can I save by upgrading to a new boiler?

Accepted Answer

Upgrading from an old, inefficient boiler to a modern A-rated condensing boiler can save you hundreds of pounds a year on your energy bills, depending on your current boiler's age and efficiency. We will give you an honest estimate of the likely savings for your specific property during a free survey, rather than a generic figure.

Question 2

Will a powerflush damage an older system?

Accepted Answer

A powerflush is a standard, well-established maintenance procedure, but on a very old or already fragile system there is a small risk of exposing existing weak points. We always assess your system first and are upfront if we think a gentler approach is more appropriate.

Question 3

Do you give a fixed price before starting work in Horton?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 4

How much does a powerflush cost?

Accepted Answer

The cost depends on the number of radiators and the size of your system, so we provide a fixed quote after assessing your property. You will know the full cost before any work begins, with nothing added afterwards.

Question 5

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 6

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.

Question 7

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 8

What is a powerflush and do I need one?

Accepted Answer

A powerflush forces cleaning fluid through your heating system at high velocity to remove built-up sludge, rust and debris. If radiators run cold in patches, or the boiler makes banging or kettling noises, it is often the recommended first step before any other work.

Question 9

Do you cover central heating repairs across Horton?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating covers central heating installation, repair and maintenance across Horton and the wider Lancashire area. We work Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, and prioritise urgent heating problems during working hours.

Question 10

Can you add a new radiator to my existing system in Horton?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can add radiators to extend heating into conservatories, extensions or previously unheated rooms in your Horton home. We check first that your boiler and system have the capacity to support the addition properly before fitting it.
