Need your boiler repaired, serviced or replaced in Eastham? Wirral Plumbers has been keeping homes across this part of the Wirral warm since 1998.
We’re based in Bebington, which puts Eastham firmly within our regular working area. Our engineers carry out everything from annual services and straightforward repairs to complete boiler replacements for homeowners, landlords and businesses.
Over more than 25 years, we’ve seen heating technology change enormously. What hasn’t changed is our approach to the job. We’ll look at what you’ve already got, establish what you actually need and recommend the most sensible solution rather than automatically pointing you towards the most expensive one.
All boiler work is completed by Gas Safe registered engineers, with free, no-obligation quotations available if you’re considering a new installation.
New Boiler Installation in Eastham
A boiler can keep running for many years, but there eventually comes a point where continuing to repair an old appliance stops being worthwhile.
Perhaps yours is breaking down more frequently. Maybe replacement parts are getting expensive, or you’ve recently bought a property with a boiler that’s clearly seen better days.
Whatever the reason, we’ll help you choose a replacement that suits your home.
We’ll carry out a survey before providing a quote, taking into account factors such as:
- Property size
- Number of bathrooms
- Hot water usage
- Existing heating system
- Available installation space
- Current boiler location
- Existing controls
- Your budget
This allows us to correctly size the new appliance instead of relying on guesswork.
Once you’ve accepted the quotation, we’ll arrange the installation, remove the old boiler, fit and test the replacement and make sure you understand how everything works before we finish.
Gas Boiler Options
Modern gas boilers are highly efficient, but there are several different configurations available.
For many Eastham homes, a combi boiler is the obvious choice. They’re compact and provide hot water directly, removing the need to store it in a cylinder.
For larger properties, particularly those where several people may need hot water simultaneously, a system boiler can offer better performance.
Conventional boilers are still installed too, particularly where an older property already has a suitable traditional heating arrangement.
There’s no benefit in changing an entire heating system simply for the sake of it, so we’ll look at what’s already there before deciding which route makes the most sense.
Boiler Repairs in Eastham
Not every boiler fault is a disaster.
Sometimes the problem is relatively simple; other times a fault requires more detailed investigation.
Our engineers deal with issues including boilers that won’t ignite, intermittent hot water, low pressure, leaking systems, cold radiators, unusual noises and fault codes.
Because we’ve worked on boilers for decades, we’re familiar with appliances from all of the leading manufacturers.
We’ll diagnose the problem and explain what needs doing before carrying out the repair.
Where possible, we aim to resolve faults on our first visit, and our vans carry a selection of commonly needed replacement parts to help us do that.
Boiler Servicing in Eastham
One appointment each year can potentially save a great deal of inconvenience later.
Regular boiler servicing helps keep your heating system safe and gives an experienced engineer an opportunity to spot signs of wear before a component fails completely.
It’s particularly important with newer boilers because annual servicing is generally a condition of the manufacturer’s warranty.
During a service we’ll inspect the boiler and flue, check the appliance is burning correctly, look for leaks, assess its general condition and carry out the necessary safety checks.
We’ll also tell you if we spot something that doesn’t need fixing immediately but may need attention in the future.
Electric Boiler Installation
There are situations where installing a gas boiler isn’t practical.
An electric boiler can provide an alternative, particularly in properties without convenient access to mains gas or where installing a flue would present difficulties.
The units themselves are generally compact and quiet, and they have fewer mechanical components than a conventional gas boiler.
However, electricity and gas have different running costs, so choosing an electric boiler requires more consideration than simply comparing the purchase price.
We’ll talk through those differences and establish whether electric heating is appropriate for your property.
Boilers From Leading Manufacturers
Having access to different manufacturers allows us to match the appliance to the customer rather than the other way around.
Brands we install include:
Reliability matters, but we’ll also look at the warranty, available controls, output and price when recommending particular models.
As Vaillant and Glow-worm accredited installers, we can provide manufacturer warranties lasting up to 10 years on qualifying boilers.
