Hi all We've got an old gas fire which has been serviced and deemed okay but we are thinking of replacing it. I've had little experience with this so thought I'd ask for advice before pricing up. We are considering getting an electric and had two questions: 1. Are electric fires good value...

Starting to go little more brown on the ceiling as it dries. The plasterboard on the wall sounds a little dull when I tap it in the affected areas too. https://photos.app.goo.gl/P4Ex5JZvCsoKVN9a6

Hi all My boiler leaked last night causing damage to my ceiling and sofa (some discolouration of the walls too). I got an emergency call out and the leak has been temporarily fixed while a new part is awaited. I have included some pics here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ncpXEPjibFdxESQcA In...

Hi I am hoping to convert my garage into a laundry room with washer, dryer, storage units, with room to air/hang dry clothes. I wondered if anyone had done similar or had any advice on how they'd do it? Currently considering the following: Replacing old wooden doors and window with UPVC...

Electrodes have been changed. Not too sure about the seal. Heat input 29.73 kW? Have a feeling it was strip cleaned last year. They said on the summary sheet I had no approved CO alarms but I pointed them out to them at the start ...

Cheers. Any advantages or disadvantages to cleaning at this reading? Other tests were passes apparently. High Comb: CO/Co2 ratio:0.0005 CO (ppm): 48 CO2%: 9.4 Low Comb CO/Co2 ratio - 0.0000 CO (ppm) - 3 CO2% 8.7 Tightness test - Not done. flue, combustion, burner ratio, ventilation all...

Yes Worcester. 532.

Hi I had my boiler serviced and was told the fan pressure was -4.9. The manual says pressure "must be greater than -4.9. Pressures below indicate that the heat exchanger will require cleaning". The engineer said it will be fine until next year when it is recommended I have a strip down...

I asked the boss of the company if he could come and check out the work but he appears to have blocked me from messaging/calling.

Sorry my mistake. I was going through the documents from my boiler cover and it says they were subsequently replaced 3 months after the initial service when they sanded them off. Cannot recall if they ordered them after the first service or we had a problem which prompted the swap. The wife was...

Thanks and I agree the customer is often not in a position to comment. However my flu is only visable externally from the back garden. Is a visual usually done on these from outside while the boiler is on? Only he never went out the back. Also on the service summary sheet it is just a list...

Will this damage the boiler beyond repair?

Electrodes have been swapped last year. They also replaced condenser seal and unblocked the trap. I'm surprised that the big company did all that under a reasonably cheap service plan.

Good advice but the fault is back 2 hours after the service.

Would that be checked during servicing and fault finding? Only the fault has reoccurred within 2 hours of the engineer visit.

So the engineer couldn't find a fault. I paid cash for the services (30-40 mins work for fire and boiler). The only advice was that next year it would need a full strip down service for around £150 as "air flow through boiler at 4.9". I was really surprised that the service was much less in...

Hi all My boiler has stopped working and displays the code "EA". I have an engineer coming out tomorrow to service it and my fire (£120), and to look at the problem. Background: I had the boiler serviced 11.5 months ago (by a big company) and the engineer told me that the ignitor sparks were...

Finding the trustworthy setups is the part I probably need some pointers on.
