Boiler Repairs
When the boiler stops working, I aim to get out the same day where possible. I diagnose the fault properly, and if a part is needed I tell you the cost upfront and order it in. I work on all major brands — Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Baxi, Ideal, Glow-worm, Viessmann.

Annual servicing is the cheapest insurance against a midwinter breakdown. I strip the boiler down, check every component, clean the heat exchanger, test for combustion efficiency, and give you an honest report. Most servicing appointments take around an hour. Book before the autumn rush if you can.

If you're a landlord with a rental property in Barnstaple, you need a CP12 certificate every 12 months — no exceptions. I carry out gas safety checks on all gas appliances, issue the certificate same day, and can set up annual reminders so it doesn't slip. Plenty of rental properties around Barnstaple town centre and the EX31 and EX32 postcodes — I know the area well.

Hive, Google Nest, Tado — I install them all. If your wiring needs adjusting or your boiler needs to be paired with a new controller, that's Gas Safe work and I'll do it properly. Most installations are done in under two hours.

Cold radiators, noisy pipes, a pump that's starting to fail — these aren't boiler problems, they're central heating problems. I'll diagnose what's actually wrong rather than guessing. Power flushing, radiator valve replacement, magnetic filter fitting — all covered.

Megaflo and other unvented hot water cylinders need a G3-qualified engineer to service or repair them — I hold that qualification. If you've got an unvented system and it hasn't been serviced in a while, it's worth getting it looked at. ---

There's no call centre. When you ring, you speak to me. I'll ask a few questions, give you an honest idea of what it's likely to be, and arrange a visit. I'll send a text on the morning with an ETA and I'll stick to it where possible.
Pricing is transparent. I'll tell you what I think the job will cost before I start — not after. If I find something unexpected once I'm in there, I'll tell you and give you the option before doing additional work.
Based Here. Not Just Covering Here.
