Boiler repairs in Liverpool

The cost of a boiler repair varies based on the boiler type and severity of the issue. Some problems are quick and inexpensive to resolve, while others may require more extensive work. At BOXT, we charge an £89 flat fee for an initial one-hour assessment from our Liverpool boiler engineers. If the issue is straightforward and parts aren’t needed, this fee covers the full repair. If additional work or parts are necessary, we’ll provide an upfront explanation before proceeding.

It is illegal for anyone without the necessary accreditations to do any work on a gas boiler, whether that’s installing or repairing it. We don’t recommend that you get a handyperson to repair any type of boiler, electric or gas, as they won’t have the necessary training to do the job to a high standard.

You can carry out routine maintenance checks yourself, such as checking the system pressure and bleeding radiators, but any in-depth maintenance or repairs must be carried out by a trained and qualified professional.

Deciding whether to repair a boiler depends on several factors: the age of the boiler, the cost of repairs, and the frequency of breakdowns. If the boiler is relatively new (less than 10 years old) and the repair cost is minor, it is usually worth fixing. Regular maintenance can extend the boiler's lifespan, making repairs a viable option. However, if the boiler is older than 15 years, frequently breaks down, or the repair cost is over half the price of a new unit, getting a replacement might be more cost-effective. 

No, only Gas Safe registered engineers are able and qualified to repair gas boilers. You should never attempt to repair, service or replace a boiler yourself. There are some simple DIY fixes you can try before contacting an engineer, but anything more complex will need expert attention. Read our guide on common boiler problems for more information.
