Whether your boiler has no heating or no hot water, we offer boiler repairs in Macclesfield at a fixed price. Same-day or next-day visits are available wherever possible, and all work is covered by our repair guarantee. We fix faults such as low pressure, leaks, strange noises and error codes.
Our engineers repair every common type of boiler, including combi, gas and electric. You can book a visit online at a time that suits you. Your engineer arrives, checks the boiler and tracks down the fault. They repair the fault and test the boiler before they go.
A condensing boiler drains waste water through a plastic pipe that runs outside. In freezing weather, the water in that pipe can turn to ice. The boiler then stops and may show a fault code or make a gurgling sound.
You can usually thaw the pipe yourself. Pour warm water, not boiling water, slowly along the frozen part. Then reset the boiler as your manual shows. If you'd rather not try these checks, a Gas Safe engineer in Macclesfield can do them for you.
If the pipe freezes in every cold spell, the way it was fitted may be the cause. A pipe that is too narrow, or runs a long way outside, freezes more easily. Lagging or rerouting the pipe can stop it happening again.
During a very cold spell, keeping the heating on low can help. It keeps a little warm water moving through the pipe. It also helps to know where your condensate pipe runs, so you can find it quickly.
A frozen pipe is not the only cold-weather fault. Pumps, valves and thermostats all work harder when it's cold outside. If your heating struggles in winter, it's worth having it checked before it stops.
Signs of a frozen pipe include a gurgling sound from the boiler and a fault code on the display. Some boilers show a flashing light instead. If you can see ice on the pipe outside, it has frozen.
If others in your home have noticed the problem, ask them what they saw. Every detail helps when the engineer arrives. For a smell of gas, ring the free National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999.

They are, every one. Gas Safe registration is required by law for gas work, and all our engineers hold it. Each one is fully trained and DBS-checked before they visit customers. If you are not Gas Safe registered yourself, please leave the boiler casing closed and let our engineer do the repair.
That depends on what has gone wrong. Your engineer first finds the fault, then explains the repair and how long it is likely to take. If a part has to be ordered, they'll tell you what happens next. You won't be left guessing about the timing.
It depends on the make. Each manufacturer uses its own set of codes, so the same code can mean different things on different boilers. Your manual lists them all. Write the code down before you reset, and tell us when you book. It helps your engineer prepare for the visit.
In most cases, repair it. A repair usually costs far less than a new boiler, and most boilers can be fixed whatever their age. Most boilers last between 10 and 15 years. If yours is older and breaks down often, a new one may cost less over time.
