Energy Efficient Oil Boiler Repairs

Worried your oil boiler is past its best? Before assuming you need a full replacement, it’s worth getting a proper diagnosis. Many oil boilers that seem inefficient or unreliable simply need a targeted repair to get back to performing well — and at a fraction of the cost of a new boiler.

Older oil boilers can lose efficiency over time, but a fault with a burner, heat exchanger, or pump does not automatically mean the boiler is beyond repair. Our OFTEC-qualified engineers will assess your boiler honestly and let you know whether a repair makes financial sense or whether replacement is the better long-term option.

If a repair is the right call, we’ll get your oil boiler running as efficiently as possible and back heating your home quickly.

What common oil boiler faults do we repair?

Lack of heat or hot water – A common problem with oil boilers is the absence of heat or hot water. This issue can arise from various causes, such as a clogged or blocked filter, a malfunctioning thermostat, a faulty pump, or an oil burner that isn’t operating correctly.
Boiler leaks – Water leakage from a boiler can be caused by several issues, including a fractured heat exchanger, a damaged pressure relief valve, or a leaking pipe. If the heat exchanger is cracked or broken, it needs to be replaced to resolve the problem. A faulty pressure relief valve will also require replacement. If the leakage is due to a pipe, repairing or replacing the pipe will be necessary to fix the issue.
Boiler randomly switching off – Several factors can cause a boiler to switch off at random times, such as a blocked or clogged filter, a malfunctioning thermostat, or issues with the combustion process. To address this, we start by inspecting the filter and replacing it if it’s dirty. Next, we check the thermostat to ensure it’s functioning properly. If the thermostat is working correctly, we’re able to repair the combustion process.
