New boilers and heating
Combi, system and regular boiler replacements, radiators, power flushes and magnetic filters.
Gas work is not a DIY job. By law, anyone working on your boiler, gas fire or hob must be on the Gas Safe Register. Before they start, ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the back to confirm they're qualified for your type of appliance.
Wokingham's housing ranges from older homes in the town centre to estates from the 1970s and 1980s and large new neighbourhoods such as Arborfield Green, Montague Park and Matthewsgreen. Each brings different heating work. In older houses, regular boilers with a hot water cylinder and loft tanks are common, and a conversion to a combi or a system boiler is often worth discussing when the boiler is replaced. On estates such as Woosehill, many homes are on their second or third boiler but still have their original radiators and pipework, where sludge can damage a new boiler unless the system is flushed.
In new-build homes, the boiler is usually covered by a manufacturer's warranty that depends on an annual service by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Missing a service can void the warranty, so keep the paperwork. Faults in the first couple of years may also be covered by the developer's warranty, so check before paying for a repair.
Wokingham's water is hard, and limescale builds up fastest where water is heated. In a combi, that means the plate heat exchanger that makes your hot water. Signs include hot water that swings between hot and cold, a boiler that bangs, and flow that drops over time. Check every new-boiler quote includes scale protection, a magnetic system filter and inhibitor. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, ask where a new flue will go before you agree a design.
Every rented home with gas needs a landlord gas safety check every 12 months. When comparing quotes, check the boiler make and model, the warranty and what keeps it valid, and whether the system will be flushed. Reviews on Trade Pilot come from real, invoiced jobs. If you smell gas, leave the property, turn off the gas at the meter if it's safe to do so, and call 0800 111 999.

Frequently Asked Questions
Usually £80 to £150. Most boiler warranties need a service every year, so check yours and keep the records.
Check your warranties first. The developer's warranty may cover faults in the first couple of years, and the boiler maker's warranty usually covers parts if the boiler has been serviced every year.
A like-for-like combi swap usually costs £2,200 to £4,000 fitted. Converting a regular or system boiler to a combi, or moving the boiler, costs more because of the extra pipework and flue work.
Ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the back, which lists the types of gas work they're qualified to do. You can also check them on the Gas Safe Register website.
Every 12 months, by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Give tenants a copy within 28 days of the check, or before they move in, and keep each record for at least two years.
