Signs Your Boiler Needs Repairing

Boilers rarely stop working out of nowhere – there are usually a few warning signs along the way. If you know what to look for, you can often catch the problem early and avoid a full breakdown. Here are some of the telltale signs that you might need your boiler looked at:

Strange noises 

If your boiler’s making banging, clunking, or whirring sounds, it could be a sign of air in the system, low pressure, or a part starting to fail. 

Inconsistent hot water

Inconsistent hot water – especially if it suddenly runs cold mid-shower – can point to a fault with your boiler’s heat exchanger or thermostat.

Radiators not heating

Cold spots, slow heat-up times, or radiators that stay lukewarm might mean there’s a circulation issue or trapped air in the system.

Loss of pressure

If you’re constantly topping up the pressure, there may be a leak somewhere or a fault with the pressure relief valve.

Unusual smells

A faint smell of burning or something metallic near your boiler could signal overheating or an electrical issue – it’s best to switch it off and get it checked.

Pilot light issues

If your pilot light keeps turning off, it might be a sensor issue or something more serious like a gas supply fault.

Why Regular Boiler Servicing Matters

It’s easy to forget about your boiler when everything’s working fine – but regular servicing can make a big difference over time. A yearly check isn’t just about ticking a box – it helps keep your heating safe, efficient, and less likely to let you down when you need it most. Here’s why to keep on top of it:

Spot problems early 

A boiler service can catch small issues before they turn into bigger, more expensive ones – saving you stress (and money) down the line.

Lower Bills

When everything’s clean and set up properly, your boiler doesn’t work as hard – meaning lower energy bills and a system that lasts longer.

Staying under warranty

Most boiler warranties require an annual service to stay valid. Miss it, and you might not be covered if something goes wrong later on.

Safety first

Gas appliances should always be checked regularly. A service makes sure everything’s working as it should and reduces the risk of leaks or faults.
