What’s Included in a Boiler Service
A proper service is much more than a quick look. A standard service with us covers:
- Visual inspection of the boiler, flue, and pipework for leaks, corrosion, and damage
- Flue and ventilation checks to make sure fumes leave your home safely
- Burner and heat exchanger inspection and clean where needed
- Gas pressure and combustion checks, adjusted if they’re outside the safe range
- Safety devices tested — flame supervision and shut-off controls
- System pressure checked and topped up, expansion vessel checked
- Controls and thermostat operation tested
- Condensate pipe checked for blockages and correct fall
- A clear summary afterwards: what was checked, what was found, and anything worth watching

How Often Should a Boiler Be Serviced?
Once a year — and for most boilers it’s a condition of the manufacturer’s warranty, which can run to 10 years on newer models.
- Miss the annual service and a warranty claim can be refused, turning a free repair into a bill of several hundred pounds.
- Servicing also catches the small problems early: a perished seal or a drifting pressure reading found in October is a cheap fix; the same fault found when the boiler fails in January becomes an emergency.
- If your boiler is already showing symptoms — strange noises, pressure that keeps dropping, radiators heating unevenly — don’t wait for the service date; see our boiler repair page instead.
Landlords in Walsall
If you rent out a property, the law requires an annual gas safety check on the appliances, carried out by a registered engineer, with a copy of the record given to your tenants.
- Many landlords book the safety check and a full service in the same visit — the boiler stays legal, reliable, and efficient, and there’s one appointment instead of two.
- Tell us when you get in touch and we’ll arrange both together.
- Landlords also need an annual landlord gas safety certificate (CP12) for their properties.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most commonly asked questions about boiler servicing
Usually 45–60 minutes for a straightforward annual service. Older boilers, or ones that haven’t been serviced for a few years, can take a little longer.
For most manufacturers, yes — servicing every 12 months by a qualified engineer, recorded properly, is a standard warranty condition. It’s one of the main reasons not to skip a year.
A safety check confirms the appliance is safe to use. A service includes the safety checks plus cleaning, adjustment, and efficiency work that keeps the boiler running well and protects its lifespan. Homes benefit from a service; rented properties legally need the safety check as a minimum.
We’ll show you what’s wrong, explain whether it’s urgent or can wait, and give you the repair price before doing anything extra. Nothing is replaced without your agreement.
