Price List - Uxbridge Boiler Repairs

We don't charge for a callout to a local domestic property (Hillingdon within a 10 mile radius from Uxbridge) at a weekday daytime, even at an evening if it has been agreed in advance. We work from Monday to Friday but not on Saturday and Sunday.

We also reserve the right to charge a diagnostic fee £70 if all three conditions are met: 1. A significant amount of work has been involved before we get into the bottom of the fault. 2. The diagnosis is correct and given to customer. 3. The customer decides not to go further repair or a new boiler with us.

If we fix your problem by a very first visit, we charge a standard fee at £70. The “fixed” includes a boiler reset or switch on, boiler parameter adjustment, system pressure topping up, radiator valve opening, re-programming heating on and off times, pump bleeding, or even calling Cadent to restore your gas supply etc. Please be aware this list is not exhaustive.

We have a high first time fix rate, at the moment it is slightly more than 50%. In other words, it is to say more than 50% chance a callout is leading to a boiler fix and a charge accordingly.

If we need to come back with a new part, the typical labour charge on the second visit is from £100 to £140.

For an intermittent fault, we only offer one free visit (the very first visit), subsequent visit(s) for the same intermittent fault will be chargeable.

Please bear in mind we have only successfully repaired 50% of the boilers and heating systems by first visits, due to spare part and material reasons. But an early callout will speed up your boiler repair for sure, even we need to come back with a new part.

Our opinion on boiler services

Most of gas fires are open flue types so they are more dangerous than room-sealed boilers. Fires should be serviced on a regular basis, particularly the pilot injector and its air inlet need cleaned on a regular basis.

To service a back boiler with its front fire.

Powerflush is an effective method to clean a heating system so you get a better circulation and have the boiler protected. It is sometimes needed with a boiler installation, particularly for those which are converted from old systems to combi boilers.

But powerflush is also used by some newbie heating engineers as a scapegoat when it is difficult to diagnose a circulation problem.

We wish to get your boiler and heating working again after a powerflush, so we will make an assessment first to see if it is really required. Once we give you a quote for a whole powerflush, we will guarantee its working, so “no fix no fee”.

See powerflush page for our powerflush standards.

From the trust of local customers, we often encounter difficult blockage jobs for central heating systems, normally a customer is left without heating or hot water by one or few local firms, as the blockage is bit trick to be resolved.

There is no surprise some firms didn’t want to engage in a job like this anymore.

This completed house unblocking service isn’t normally straight forwards, it might take one whole day or two days by min two engineers. We still offer “no fix no fee” policy, there is no charge until we finish the job and you are satisfied with outcome.
