Question 1

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 2

How long does a boiler installation typically take?

Accepted Answer

A straightforward like-for-like combi boiler swap usually takes one working day. Converting from a conventional or system boiler to a combi, or fitting a new unvented cylinder alongside the installation, can take one to two days depending on the pipework involved. We confirm the expected timescale in your written quote.

Question 3

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 4

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 5

What does a banging or kettling boiler noise mean?

Accepted Answer

Banging or kettling noises usually mean sludge or debris has built up around the heat exchanger or in the system, restricting flow. It is often resolved with a powerflush, though we always check the system first before recommending one.

Question 6

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 7

Do you maintain central heating for landlords in Rose Grove?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We install, repair and maintain central heating systems for landlords as well as homeowners across Rose Grove and Lancashire, with a fixed quote agreed before any work starts so costs are clear for rental properties.

Question 8

What are TRVs and why would I want them?

Accepted Answer

Thermostatic radiator valves let you set an individual temperature for each radiator, so you are not heating rooms you rarely use to the same level as the rest of the house. They are a simple, low-cost way to improve comfort and control running costs.

Question 9

Do you give a fixed price before starting work in Rose Grove?

Accepted Answer

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

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.
