What’s Wrong With Your Boiler?

What Happens When You Report a Boiler Fault
When a boiler stops working properly, the first job is to understand what is causing the problem. AB Plumbing & Heating checks the boiler and the relevant parts of the heating system before recommending any repair.
That might involve checking the pressure, controls, internal components, pipework or fault codes, depending on the symptoms. Once the cause has been identified, the problem is explained clearly and the repair options are discussed before any work goes ahead.
A boiler repair visit may include:
- Checking the boiler and heating controls
- Investigating fault codes or warning lights
- Testing pressure and system operation
- Inspecting relevant internal components
- Checking for leaks or damaged pipework
- Explaining the fault and repair required
- Replacing faulty parts where appropriate
- Testing the boiler after the repair
If the boiler is older or has developed repeated faults, we’ll also give you an honest view on whether another repair makes sense or whether replacement may be worth considering.
Boiler Repair Process
1. Tell Us What’s Happening
Let us know what the boiler is doing, whether you have no heating or hot water, a fault code, pressure problems, unusual noises or another issue.
2. Fault Diagnosis
We’ll inspect the boiler and relevant parts of the heating system to identify the cause of the problem rather than guessing or replacing parts unnecessarily.
3. Repair and Testing
Once the fault has been explained and the repair agreed, the necessary work is carried out and the boiler is tested to make sure it is operating correctly.
4. Clear Advice Before We Leave
We’ll explain what has been done and let you know if there is anything else worth keeping an eye on. If an older boiler is becoming uneconomical to repair, we’ll say so.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my boiler stops working?
Check that the boiler has power, that the heating controls are switched on and that the system pressure looks normal. If the boiler still will not operate, get in touch and we can investigate the fault.
Why does my boiler keep losing pressure?
A gradual loss of pressure can be caused by several things, including a leak somewhere in the heating system, a faulty valve or a problem within the boiler itself. If you are regularly having to repressurise the system, it is worth having the cause checked.
Can you repair a boiler that has no heating or hot water?
Yes. Loss of heating or hot water can be caused by a number of boiler or heating-system faults. We will inspect the system, identify the cause and explain what repair is required.
What do boiler fault codes mean?
Fault codes are designed to indicate where a boiler has detected a problem, but the code alone does not always tell you exactly what has failed. We use the fault information alongside checks of the boiler and heating system to diagnose the problem properly.
Why is my boiler making unusual noises?
Banging, rattling, whistling or other unusual noises can have several causes, including circulation problems, trapped air, pressure issues or components beginning to fail. Persistent or new noises should be investigated rather than ignored.
Is it worth repairing an older boiler?
That depends on the boiler’s age, condition, repair history and the cost of the parts required. If a repair makes sense, we will tell you. If repeated faults mean replacement is becoming the more sensible option, we will explain that too.

Yes. Boiler repair work is carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
