Boiler Repairs
Woolacombe sits about 25–30 minutes from Barnstaple. For breakdowns — whether it's a guest calling from a holiday let or a permanent resident with no heating — I'll give you an honest timeframe when you call. I work on Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Baxi, and Ideal boilers and diagnose the fault properly. If a part is needed, I'll let you know the cost and order it only once you're happy.

Coastal properties see harder use on their heating systems than inland ones — salt air, damp winters, and boilers that run flat-out from October through March. An annual service is worth more here than in a sheltered inland town. I check all safety components, clean the heat exchanger, and test combustion efficiency. For holiday let properties, the quiet shoulder season is the ideal time to book.

This is where I do a lot of my work in Woolacombe. The CP12 gas safety certificate covers all gas appliances in a property — boiler, hob, gas fire if there is one — and must be renewed every 12 months. If you let your property, your guests and your insurance policy both depend on this being current. I carry out the inspection, issue the certificate by email the same day, and can set up a 12-month reminder so it doesn't catch you out mid-booking season. If you own more than one property in the Woolacombe area, tell me — we can often batch visits to save you time.

Remote heating control is particularly useful for holiday lets. You can set the heating to warm the property before a guest arrives and set it back when they leave — without being there. Hive, Google Nest, and Tado all work well for this. I install and commission all three, including any boiler-end wiring where needed.

Older properties in Woolacombe can accumulate sludge in the central heating system over time, particularly if they've had a series of different tenants or owners. Cold radiators, uneven heat, banging pipes — I diagnose and fix these. Power flushing is often the right solution for older systems.

G3-qualified servicing and repairs for unvented hot water cylinders. If you have a Megaflo or similar in your holiday let or home, manufacturers require an annual service to keep the warranty valid — and it's the safe thing to do on a pressurised system. I'm qualified to carry it out. ---
