Question 1

What happens during a typical plumbing repair visit?

Accepted Answer

We assess the fault, trace any leak to its source, then give a fixed written quote before starting. Once agreed, we carry out the repair with quality parts, test it under normal use, and leave the area tidy.

Question 2

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 3

How do I book a plumbing repair in Holden Vale?

Accepted Answer

Call us on 07880 240138 during our working hours, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, and we will arrange a visit to assess the job and agree a fixed price.

Question 4

Do you offer a fixed price for plumbing repairs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Wherever possible we provide a fixed price once we have seen or understood the job, rather than an open-ended hourly rate, so you know the cost upfront before any work begins.

Question 5

What is an unvented hot water cylinder?

Accepted Answer

An unvented cylinder stores hot water at mains pressure without needing a cold water tank in the loft, giving strong, consistent pressure at every tap. We are qualified to install and service unvented cylinders safely, which by law requires specific certified training.

Question 6

How can I check your Gas Safe registration in Holden Vale?

Accepted Answer

You can verify our registration independently on the official Gas Safe Register using our Register No. 640113. We would always encourage checking this before any gas work begins, in Holden Vale or anywhere else.

Question 7

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 8

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 9

How often should I have my boiler serviced?

Accepted Answer

We strongly recommend having your boiler serviced annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Regular servicing ensures your boiler operates safely and efficiently, helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, keeps your manufacturer's warranty valid, and can extend the lifespan of your boiler by several years. An annual service typically takes around 30-45 minutes and includes safety checks, efficiency testing and a visual inspection of key components.

Question 10

Can you replace an old cylinder with an unvented one?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this is a common upgrade when a vented system struggles with poor pressure. We will assess your incoming mains pressure and flow rate first to confirm an unvented cylinder is suitable for your property before recommending it.
