    Expertise you can rely on

    Restoring warmth in your home

    Experiencing issues with your boiler can be a huge inconvenience for your family. Whether it’s a minor fault or a complete breakdown, a malfunctioning boiler can disrupt your daily routine and leave you without heat or hot water.

    Our team of Gas Safe registered engineers are trained to diagnose and repair a wide range of boiler issues, from simple malfunctions to more complex problems.

    In a best-case scenario, the boiler is simply showing its age and a small component needs to be replaced, but in the event of more significant fault, our team will swiftly source parts and materials to handle the repair with minimal fuss or repeat visits.

    A strategic same-day service

    We know how frustrating it can be to face a boiler breakdown, especially during the colder months. That’s why we strive to provide same-day emergency boiler repair services whenever possible.

    Our engineers are strategically located throughout Newcastle and the surrounding areas, allowing them to respond promptly to your call. They will arrive fully equipped to diagnose the problem and, in many cases, fix it in the same visit.

    If your boiler has stopped working suddenly and you need our team to come and complete emergency repairs, please call us on 0191 4888 581 – we’re on hand to help.

    Important questions

    How can I tell if my boiler is broken?

    If you suspect your boiler may be experiencing an issue, first ask yourself the following questions:

    • Smell: Can you smell gas or fumes? This is a significant indicator.
    • Pressure: Is your boiler showing high or low pressure instead of a steady constant pressure?
    • Noise: Can you hear unusual noises such as banging, whistling, or tapping?
    • Gas usage: Is your average gas usage higher than average? This indicates the boiler is not performing or there may even be a gas leak.
    • Flame colour: Is the pilot light or flame orange or yellow? This should be blue.
    • Leaking, dripping, and discolouring: Is there excess condensation, water leakage, or discolouration around your boiler?
    • Temperamental: Do you repeatedly need to relight your pilot light or restart your system?
    • Headaches or nausea: Are you experiencing headaches or nausea? Is there any dark sooty staining on or around your boiler? This could indicate carbon monoxide exposure and action needs to be taken immediately.
