Fast boiler repairs when your heating lets you down
No heating or hot water? We fix boiler breakdowns across Hertfordshire, with most faults diagnosed and repaired on the first visit.
If your boiler has stopped working, first check the pressure gauge (usually 1 to 1.5 bar when cold), that the power and gas supply are on, and that your thermostat is asking for heat. If it still will not fire, call LWS on 07867 388453. If you smell gas, leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency number on 0800 111 999.

Before you call
A few quick checks can sometimes get you going again: make sure the boiler has power, the gas is on at the meter, the pressure gauge reads around 1 to 1.5 bar when the system is cold, and your thermostat and timer are set correctly. In freezing weather, a blocked condensate pipe is a common cause of lockouts.
If you smell gas, do not use electrical switches, open windows, turn off the gas at the meter if it is safe to do so, leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency number on 0800 111 999.
Repair or replace?
We will always tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense. If your boiler is old, unreliable or parts are no longer available, we can show you fixed prices for a replacement so you can decide with all the facts.

Boiler Repairs & Breakdowns FAQs
What should I check if my boiler stops working?
Check the boiler has power, the gas is on, the pressure gauge reads around 1 to 1.5 bar when cold and your thermostat is calling for heat. In freezing weather, check the condensate pipe outside has not frozen. If it still will not work, call us on 07867 388453.
What should I do if I smell gas?
Do not use electrical switches or naked flames. Open doors and windows, turn off the gas at the meter if it is safe, leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency number on 0800 111 999.
Is it worth repairing an old boiler?
Sometimes. If your boiler is over 10 to 15 years old, breaking down often or parts are hard to find, a replacement can be better value. We will always give you an honest view and prices for both.
