Annual boiler services from £85 by a Gas Safe registered engineer

Annual Boiler Servicing

An annual boiler service from LAB Plumbing & Heating costs £85 to £120. We are Gas Safe registered, and we check the boiler is working safely and correctly, test the flue gases and clean key parts where needed. Boilers should be serviced every 12 months to stay safe and to keep the manufacturer warranty valid.

A yearly service is the simplest way to keep your boiler safe, reliable and covered by its warranty. We service gas boilers across Chester-le-Street, Durham, Newcastle, Gateshead and Sunderland, and most services are priced between £85 and £120.

A service is mainly about safety and making sure the boiler is working as it should. We check the gas pressure and burner, test the flue gases with a calibrated analyser, inspect the seals and condensate, and make sure the controls and safety devices respond correctly.

Some parts of the service, such as cleaning the heat exchanger, can help the boiler run more efficiently. If anything needs attention, you are told straight away, with a clear price before any extra work is done.
