Boiler Replacement

Replacing Old, Unreliable and Failed Boilers

A boiler that breaks down repeatedly, needs parts that are no longer made or has failed outright is usually better replaced than repaired again. We remove the old boiler and fit a new one in homes and businesses across Cambridgeshire, Essex and Suffolk. Where a breakdown has left you without heating, our 24/7 call-outs mean we can attend at any hour, make the system safe and assess the replacement.

A replacement is also the moment to check that the boiler suits the property as it is used today. We look at how you use hot water and the condition of the existing system, and we clean or flush it where sludge or limescale would shorten the life of the new boiler. The work is fully insured and guaranteed, and nothing is fitted until you have agreed the cost.

  • The condition of the existing system and whether it needs cleaning or flushing.
  • Any changes needed to the flue, pipework or controls.
  • Whether the old boiler has failed and the work is needed urgently.

The work

How a Boiler Replacement Is Carried Out

The main stages of the job, from finding the fault to the final check.

  1. Assessing the Old Boiler

    We check the old boiler, the system and your hot water needs, and confirm whether replacing it is the right call.

  2. Quote and Choice of Boiler

    We recommend a suitable boiler, quote for the work and only proceed once you agree the price.

  3. Removal and Fitting

    We drain down, remove the old boiler, prepare the system and fit the new boiler and its controls.

  4. Testing and Sign-Off

    We fill, test and run the new boiler, then review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Boiler Replacement Questions

How do I know if my boiler needs replacing rather than repairing?

Frequent breakdowns, parts that are no longer available, rising running costs and a repair quote close to the cost of a new boiler all point towards replacement. We give you our view after assessing the boiler.

Can the new boiler go in the same place as the old one?

Usually, yes, and keeping the same position keeps the work simpler. If you would prefer a different position or a different type of system, that becomes a boiler installation, which we also carry out.

Why does the system need cleaning before a new boiler goes in?

Older systems collect sludge and debris, and scale where the water is hard. Left in place, it can block the new boiler's heat exchanger and shorten its life, so we clean or flush the system as part of the job.

My boiler has broken down completely. Can you replace it urgently?

We take call-outs 24/7, so we can attend, make the system safe and assess the replacement at any hour. Fitting the new boiler depends on the model chosen, and we confirm the arrangements when you agree the quote.

Do you replace boilers in businesses as well as homes?

Yes. We replace boilers in homes and commercial properties, and we arrange the work to keep disruption to your premises as low as possible.
