Boiler Engineer

If you smell gas, do not touch any electrical switches, do not light any flames, and open all windows and doors immediately. Turn off the gas supply at the meter using the emergency control valve — turn the handle so it sits across the pipe. Leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 from outside. Do not re-enter until given the all-clear.

Whether you need an emergency repair, a routine service, or a full boiler replacement, we will find someone qualified and local.

If your boiler is over 10 to 15 years old, breaks down frequently, or has an efficiency rating below A (90%+), replacement is usually more cost-effective than repeated repairs. A single repair costing over £400 on an older boiler is often not worthwhile. Modern condensing boilers are up to 30% more efficient than older models, so a new boiler can pay for itself through lower gas bills within 5 to 7 years.

Warning signs include a yellow or orange boiler flame instead of blue, dark staining around the boiler, increased condensation on windows, and a pilot light that frequently goes out. Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure include headaches, dizziness, nausea and confusion. If you suspect a carbon monoxide leak, open windows, leave the property immediately and call the Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999. Fit a CO alarm near your boiler — they cost under £20 and save lives.

Boiler repairs in Nottingham typically cost between £150 and £400, depending on the fault and the parts required. Common repairs like replacing a faulty diverter valve or fan motor sit at the lower end, while PCB (printed circuit board) replacements can push costs higher. A Gas Safe registered engineer will diagnose the fault and provide a fixed quote before starting any work.

A new combi boiler installation in Nottingham generally costs between £2,500 and £4,500, including the boiler unit and fitting. The final price depends on the boiler brand, the complexity of the installation, and whether any pipework modifications are needed. If you are switching from a conventional system to a combi, expect additional costs of £500 to £1,000 for removing the old tanks and cylinders.
