Boiler repair in Earlsdon, Coventry. No heat, no hot water, leaks and lockouts on the older systems in Earlsdon terraces and semis. Same-day where we can.
The faults we get called to in Earlsdon follow the housing. Long pipe runs from a kitchen boiler to the far bedroom radiator, so the system loses pressure at the weakest joint. Old cast-iron radiators holding sludge that eventually reaches the heat exchanger. Cylinders in airing cupboards on a system that still uses a separate hot water tank. And, on the coldest mornings, condensate pipes that were run outside the back wall when the boiler was swapped years ago.
A repair visit starts with finding out which of those it is, rather than swapping a part and hoping. Bring the fault code if the boiler shows one, and say what the house does: no heat at all, heat but no hot water, or heat only in some rooms. That one answer usually narrows it to a part before anyone arrives. If you smell gas, leave the house, do not touch switches and ring the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999 from outside.
Usually the boiler has locked out or lost pressure. See the fault code pages if a code is showing, or send a photo of the display and the pressure gauge.
On a combi this points at the diverter valve or the hot water sensor. On a system with a cylinder it is usually the cylinder thermostat or the motorised valve in the airing cupboard.
Classic in a long Earlsdon terrace. Often sludge or air rather than the boiler, and a balance or a power flush fixes it for good.
Water is leaving the system somewhere. We look at radiator valves, the pipe under the boiler, and the expansion vessel before refilling it again.
An honest answer on an older boiler: what the part costs against what is left in the appliance, and whether a new boiler makes better sense.
Send a photo of the boiler badge and the display on WhatsApp. It tells us the model and usually the likely part before we set off.
Yes, and the streets around it: Chapelfields, Hearsall Common, Spon End and up toward Canley. Earlsdon is a short run for us, so same-day is realistic on most breakdowns.
Often yes for a single part that is still available. The questions are whether the part is still made, what else on the appliance is tired, and how the heat exchanger looks. We tell you straight.
Yes. Plenty of Earlsdon houses still run a cylinder and a separate boiler, and the faults are different from a combi: motorised valves, cylinder thermostats and pumps rather than diverter valves.
Usually air or sludge, sometimes a pipe clipped tight against a joist that expands and catches. It is worth sorting: a noisy system is normally an inefficient one.
The code means the boiler stopped itself, which is the safe outcome. If you smell gas, leave the house, do not touch switches and ring the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999 from outside.
Ask to see the Gas Safe ID card when they arrive and read the back, which lists the appliances that person is signed off to work on.
