How long is the drive from Barnstaple to South Molton?

About 25–35 minutes via the A361, depending on traffic. I'll give you a realistic ETA when you call, and I send a text with an arrival window on the morning of planned visits.

Is my property in South Molton on mains gas?

If you're in the town itself, almost certainly yes. If you're in a rural property outside the town, it's worth confirming. Check your energy supplier or bills — or call and I'll help you figure it out.

Do you service boilers in Chulmleigh?

Yes, on request. It's further out but still within my coverage radius. Call me and we'll arrange it.

What do you charge for a call-out in South Molton — is it more because of the distance?

I don't apply a distance surcharge within my coverage area. I'll be clear about my pricing when you call, before I come out. ---

Boiler Repairs

For a boiler breakdown in South Molton, I aim to get out the same day or next day depending on my schedule. I work on Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Baxi, and Ideal boilers. I'll diagnose the problem properly and give you a clear quote before touching anything — and if a part is needed, I'll confirm the price with you before ordering it.

Boiler Servicing

Annual servicing keeps your warranty valid and gives you early warning of components that are wearing. For South Molton properties I'd suggest booking in spring or summer — I get busier in autumn and that's when the gaps in my schedule get tighter. A full service takes around an hour and I'll leave you with a clear summary of the boiler's condition.

Landlord Gas Safety Checks

Rental properties in South Molton and the surrounding parishes need a CP12 gas safety certificate every 12 months. I carry out the inspection and issue the certificate the same day. I can also set up annual renewal reminders so it doesn't catch you out.

Smart Thermostats

I install Hive, Google Nest, and Tado. If your current thermostat is a manual dial on the wall, a smart controller is a meaningful upgrade — you control the heating from your phone and you don't heat an empty house. Worth considering if you're heading into a heating bill you'd rather keep down.

Central Heating Repairs

Cold radiators, pressure problems, noisy systems — I diagnose and fix central heating faults across all types. For older systems that haven't been power flushed in a while, sludge build-up is a common culprit for uneven heat distribution.

Unvented Cylinders

G3-qualified servicing and repairs for unvented hot water systems. Manufacturers require an annual service on a Megaflo or similar to keep the warranty valid — and it's the safe thing to do on a pressurised system. I'll carry it out. ---
