Repair or Replace: How to Decide

If the boiler is over twelve years old and the repair costs a large share of a new one, replacing usually works out better. Parts for older models get harder to find, and a single failed heat exchanger can be worth more than the boiler.

Keeping Your Existing Pipework

Where the old pipework is sound and correctly sized, we reuse it. That means less mess, fewer floorboards up and a lower price. We test what is there first, because reusing undersized or corroded pipe would only cause problems later.

Running Costs After a Replacement

A modern condensing boiler recovers heat that an older non condensing model sent out of the flue. Paired with a decent thermostat and balanced radiators, most homes see a clear drop in gas use. We set the flow temperature properly, which is where a lot of that saving comes from.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I replace my boiler rather than repair it?

Look at age, reliability and the cost of the repair. Past twelve years, breaking down more than once a year, or facing a repair worth a large share of a new boiler, replacement is usually the better call. We will tell you honestly which way we would go.

Can I replace my boiler with the same type?

Yes, and a like for like swap is the quickest and cheapest option. Combi for combi, or system for system, keeps the pipework and controls in place. Changing type is worth considering only if your hot water needs have actually changed.

Will a new boiler lower my gas bills in Kingston upon Thames?

In most cases yes, especially if you are replacing a non condensing boiler. How much depends on your old boiler, your controls and how you heat the house. Setting the flow temperature correctly and balancing the radiators makes a bigger difference than most people expect.
