Boiler Engineer
Acrise& Surrounding Area

A standard annual boiler service takes 30 to 45 minutes. The engineer will inspect the boiler internals, check gas pressure and flow rate, carry out a flue gas analysis, and test all safety devices. You will receive a service record which you should keep as proof for your warranty. The engineer should also flag any parts showing early signs of wear.

Submit your details and we will match you with the nearest available engineer for your job. Whether you need an emergency repair, a routine service, or a full boiler replacement, we will find someone qualified and local.

A straightforward like-for-like combi boiler replacement typically takes one day — around 6 to 8 hours. If the boiler is being relocated, the flue route changed, or you are converting from a conventional system, the job can take 2 to 3 days. Your engineer should give you a clear timeline before starting and ensure you have hot water by the end of the final day.

A boiler that loses pressure gradually over weeks usually has a small leak somewhere in the system — often a radiator valve or a pipe joint. This is not an immediate emergency but needs investigating. If the pressure drops rapidly or the boiler is cutting out repeatedly, call an engineer promptly. You can repressurise the boiler using the filling loop as a temporary fix, but this does not solve the underlying problem.

A leaking boiler should always be taken seriously. While a small drip from a pressure relief valve may indicate a minor issue, water leaking from the boiler casing can damage internal electrics and create a safety hazard. Never attempt to repair a boiler leak yourself.

A combi boiler heats water on demand and is ideal for smaller homes with one bathroom — no tank or cylinder needed. A system boiler uses a hot water cylinder and suits homes with two or more bathrooms where demand is higher. Conventional (regular) boilers have both a cylinder and header tanks and are found in older properties. Your engineer will recommend the right type based on your home's size and hot water demand.
