Boiler stopped working? No heating or hot water? Losing pressure, leaking, making unusual noises or showing a fault code?
CombiCert provides professional boiler repairs throughout Telford and the surrounding area. We are Gas Safe registered heating engineers with extensive experience diagnosing and repairing domestic gas boilers from the major manufacturers.
Our approach is simple: diagnose the actual fault first, explain what has failed and tell you whether the boiler is worth repairing. We do not replace parts unnecessarily and we will tell you if repairing an ageing boiler no longer makes financial sense.
We repair gas boilers in homes throughout Telford, Wellington, Dawley, Madeley, Lawley, Priorslee, Muxton, Ironbridge, Newport and surrounding areas.
Whether your boiler has stopped completely or has developed an intermittent fault, we will investigate the cause and explain the options before carrying out repairs. Where possible, we aim to repair faults rather than simply replace components until the problem disappears.
Common Boiler Problems We Repair
Boiler faults can appear in dozens of different ways. Some are straightforward, while others require proper fault finding rather than guesswork.
Boiler not firing or starting
No heating
No hot water
Boiler repeatedly losing pressure
Boiler pressure too high
Water leaking from the boiler
Radiators not heating correctly
Boiler switching itself off
Ignition and flame failure faults
Pump faults
Diverter valve problems
Thermostat and heating control faults
Sensors and temperature faults
Unusual banging, vibrating or kettling noises
Error codes displayed on the boiler
Intermittent faults that keep returning
If your boiler is displaying an error code, make a note of it before calling us. The code does not always identify the failed component, but it can give us useful information before we arrive.
Proper Boiler Fault Finding
Good boiler repair starts with diagnosis.
Modern boilers contain pumps, fans, gas valves, ignition systems, sensors, electronic controls, pressure components and safety devices. A fault showing on the display does not necessarily mean the component named in the fault code is actually defective.
We test the boiler and heating system systematically to establish why the fault has occurred. That might include checking system pressure, electrical signals, sensors, combustion, gas supply, pumps, valves, controls and the condition of the surrounding heating system.
The objective is to repair the cause of the problem, not simply reset the boiler and hope it stays running.
Which Boiler Brands Do We Repair?
CombiCert works on most common domestic gas boiler manufacturers including:

If your boiler manufacturer is not listed, call us with the make and model and we can normally tell you whether we can help.
Combi, System and Conventional Boiler Repairs
We repair combi boilers, system boilers and conventional heat-only boilers.
Not every heating fault is actually caused by the boiler. Problems can also originate from pumps, motorised valves, thermostats, hot-water cylinders, zone controls, expansion vessels or the heating system itself.
Diagnosing the whole system rather than concentrating only on the appliance often prevents unnecessary boiler repairs.
Is Your Boiler Worth Repairing?
In many cases, yes.
A single failed component does not automatically mean you need a new boiler. However, there comes a point where repeatedly repairing an old appliance becomes poor value.
We consider the age and overall condition of the boiler, the cost of the repair, availability of replacement parts, previous breakdown history and whether other expensive components are likely to fail soon.
If repairing the boiler makes sense, we will tell you. If replacement would be the more sensible long-term decision, we will explain why and let you decide.

Boiler Repair FAQs
How quickly can you attend a boiler breakdown in Telford?
Availability varies depending on workload and the time of year. Call us and we will tell you the earliest appointment we can offer. During colder weather boiler repair demand can increase significantly, so contacting us as soon as a fault develops is advisable.
Why does my boiler keep losing pressure?
Pressure loss can be caused by leaks within the heating system, expansion vessel problems, pressure relief valve faults or components inside the boiler. Repeatedly topping the pressure back up without finding the cause is not a permanent repair.
Why is my boiler working but I have no hot water?
The cause depends on the type of boiler and heating system. On a combi boiler it may involve a diverter valve, sensor, flow detection or another internal component. On systems with a hot-water cylinder, the fault may be outside the boiler entirely.
Can you repair a leaking boiler?
Often, yes. The cause may be a seal, valve, pipe connection or internal component. However, water and gas appliances should not be ignored. If water is leaking from your boiler, switch the appliance off if it is safe to do so and contact a Gas Safe registered engineer.
Can you repair my boiler on the first visit?
Many faults can be repaired during the initial visit, particularly where common components are involved. Some repairs require manufacturer-specific parts that need to be ordered. We will explain this once the fault has been diagnosed.
Do you repair older boilers?
Yes, provided the boiler remains safe to work on and suitable parts are available. With very old appliances, we will also discuss whether the repair represents good value compared with replacement.
Do you repair boilers for landlords?
Yes. We work with homeowners, landlords and letting properties throughout Telford and the surrounding area.
Which areas do you cover?
Our domestic boiler repair work primarily covers Telford and nearby areas including Wellington, Dawley, Madeley, Lawley, Priorslee, Muxton, Ironbridge and Newport. Contact us if you are slightly outside these areas as we may still be able to help.
Need a Boiler Repair in Telford?
If your boiler has stopped working, is displaying a fault code or simply is not operating as it should, call CombiCert and tell us what is happening.
If possible, have the boiler make, model and any fault code available when you call. This can help us understand the problem before attending.
If a failed tightness test raises questions, see our gas pipe check in Telford before deciding on repair or replacement.
