What a boiler service covers
A boiler service is a full safety and performance check of your boiler, carried out once a year by a Gas Safe registered engineer. It confirms the boiler is burning gas safely, venting fumes properly and running as efficiently as it should.
We service boilers in homes right across Gateshead — from Low Fell and Felling to Whickham, Blaydon and Birtley. Every service is recorded, so you have the paperwork your manufacturer asks for if you ever need to make a warranty claim.
What we check
- Boiler casing, seals and general condition
- Burner and heat exchanger, cleaned where needed
- Flue gas analysis for safe combustion
- Gas pressure and gas rate
- Flue and terminal clearance and condition
- Condensate pipe and trap
- System water pressure and expansion vessel
- Controls and safety devices working correctly

Why service your boiler every year?
Keep your warranty valid
Most boiler manufacturers require an annual service by a Gas Safe registered engineer as a condition of the warranty. Miss a year and a claim can be refused — which is an expensive way to find out.
Stop small faults becoming breakdowns
Worn seals, a blocked condensate trap or a tired expansion vessel rarely stop a boiler straight away. They show up on a cold morning in January instead. A service catches them while they're still cheap to put right.
Carbon monoxide safety
A boiler that isn't burning cleanly can produce carbon monoxide, which you can't see or smell. The flue gas analysis we carry out at every service is how that gets picked up. Make sure you have a working CO alarm too.
Lower running costs
A clean, correctly set-up boiler uses less gas to heat the same home. With energy prices where they are, that's money back every month the heating is on.
Servicing boilers across Gateshead
Gateshead has a real mix of homes — Victorian terraces and Tyneside flats around Bensham, Saltwell and Low Fell, interwar and post-war semis in Felling, Wrekenton and Whickham, and newer estates further out towards Ryton and Birtley. We work on all of them, whether the boiler sits in a kitchen cupboard, a loft or an airing cupboard.
Landlords: Gateshead has a lot of rented Tyneside flats. We can carry out the annual service and your gas safety certificate (CP12) in the same visit — one appointment for the tenant, one trip for us, and both records sent to you the same day.
Older boilers: if yours needs more and more attention every year, we'll tell you straight whether it's worth keeping or whether a new boiler installation makes more sense. No pressure either way.

How much is a boiler service in Gateshead?
The price depends on the type of boiler you have and whether you want anything else done in the same visit, such as a landlord gas safety check.
We quote a fixed price before we come out, and it doesn't change afterwards. If we find a fault during the service, we explain it and give you a separate fixed price for the repair — nothing is done without your say-so.
