Boiler repair & service in Shildon

Mixed housing ages mean boiler sizing, drain method and access planning vary job by job. That local repetition helps on landlord repairs, certificates, and tidy work in finished rooms — we diagnose on site rather than guessing from a postcode. Boiler work here is never “just a fault code” — we trace pressure loss, ignition and pump issues on the actual system fitted.
