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

Do you put your quotes in writing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every fixed quote is given in writing before any work begins, so you have a clear record of the agreed price for your Whitebirk property before we start.

Question 3

How can I check your Gas Safe registration in Whitebirk?

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 Whitebirk or anywhere else.

Question 4

How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?

Accepted Answer

Warning signs include an unexpectedly high water bill, damp patches on walls, ceilings or flooring, a musty smell, or your water meter still ticking over when everything is turned off. If you suspect a hidden leak, get it checked promptly to limit damage.

Question 5

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 6

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 7

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 8

What should I do if I have a burst pipe?

Accepted Answer

Turn off your water at the stopcock immediately to limit damage, then turn off any electrics near the affected area if there is a risk of water contact. Call us during working hours, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, to arrange a repair as soon as possible.

Question 9

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 10

Do you cover plumbing as well as boilers and heating?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Beyond boilers and heating we handle the everyday plumbing that keeps a home running, including leaking pipes, dripping taps, running or blocked toilets, and unvented hot water cylinder installation and servicing across Whitebirk.
