A: Boiler lifetimes can last up to 15 years. However cheap boilers, or those boilers fitted by cheap plumbers may last only 5 years.

Q: What is the difference between flushing and chemical (power) flush?

A: Flushing refers to cleaning the system with water. This is highly ineffective and does not clean proplerly. Cheap plumbers only flush out systems. Chemical (power) flush thoroughly removes deposits of sludge and debris from your central heating system, for example left at the bottom of radiators or pipes. It helps significantly in the long term and prevents cold radiators, boiler noises or slow warming of the central heating system. Chemical flushing costs from £300+ depending on the size of the property.

 Cheap plumbers avoid power flushing and hence they have cheap prices. No power flushing results in boiler problems (often within 5 years), and in worst cases boilers may need replacing quickly, incurring extra costs (£000’s) for householders.

Q: Do you have a call out charge?

A: We do not have a call out charge for boiler replacment jobs. We provide a free quote upon site inspections. Where jobs can be fixed and do not need parts replacing, a call out fee of £70 is charged for local areas. This also applies for the jobs previously completed by CGH, where fault did not lie in our workmanship.
