Boiler Service & Maintenance in Wigan
Annual boiler servicing to keep your heating running safely and efficiently.
Looking After Your Boiler
Prevention is always better than cure. Regular boiler servicing is essential to keep your heating system running safely and efficiently. An annual service can help prevent costly breakdowns, extend the life of your boiler, and is a requirement of most manufacturer warranties. If we identify any faults during a service, our engineers can carry out boiler repairs there and then.
Our Gas Safe registered engineers service all makes and models of boiler. Each service includes a thorough inspection, safety checks, and a service record for your files. If your boiler is nearing end of life, we can also advise on a new boiler installation to keep your home comfortable and efficient.

Why Service Your Boiler Annually?
An annual boiler service is one of the most important things you can do for your home. Here's why we recommend it to all our customers.
Safety
A faulty boiler can produce carbon monoxide — an odourless, potentially lethal gas. Annual servicing ensures your boiler is burning safely.
Warranty Protection
Most manufacturers require an annual service to keep your warranty valid. Missing a service could void your cover.
Energy Efficiency
A well-maintained boiler runs more efficiently, using less gas and reducing your energy bills.
Prevent Breakdowns
Catching small problems during a service prevents them becoming expensive emergency repairs later.
Boiler Lifespan
Regular servicing can add years to the life of your boiler, delaying the cost of a full replacement.
Landlord Gas Safety Certificates
If you're a landlord, you are legally required to have all gas appliances checked annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. We provide landlord gas safety certificates (CP12) and can set up annual reminders so you never miss a check.
