Boiler repair in Ealing
- Boilers asked to serve more bathrooms than they were sized for
- Pressure and flow complaints that are the system rather than the unit
- Heating that never quite reaches the top floor of a large house
Ealing’s larger Edwardian and interwar houses were mostly built around a regular boiler, a loft tank and a cylinder, and many have since been changed piecemeal: a combi in one house, a system boiler with an unvented cylinder in the next, sometimes a second boiler added for a loft floor. Knowing which you have narrows the fault quickly, so a photo of the boiler and of whatever is in the airing cupboard helps before the visit. Ealing’s purpose-built blocks, many dating from the 1930s, are a different job. Flats there usually have a small combi in a kitchen or hall cupboard, and its flue may exit into a light well or onto a rear wall shared with neighbours. Swapping a part is simple; changing the flue can need the freeholder’s agreement first. Houses often have a driveway, while the blocks mean a lift or stairs and tighter parking, which affects how long a visit takes.

Common questions
Do you cover Ealing?
We do. Ealing falls within Ealing, covering the W5, W13, W3, UB1 postcodes, and our engineers are out across Greater London from our Fulham office every day.
My shower goes cold when someone runs a tap. Is the boiler broken?
Probably not. That is the classic sign of a combi being asked to supply two outlets at once. It is a sizing problem rather than a fault, and replacing the same size boiler will not change it.
My flat’s boiler flue opens into a light well shared with other flats. Is that allowed?
It can be, if the terminal keeps the required distances from windows, vents and surrounding walls, and the space is open enough for fumes to clear. Some installations in Ealing’s purpose-built blocks were fitted under older rules or squeezed in where space was short. On a repair visit we check the flue and terminal position. If it falls short of current standards, we explain what that means and who in the building needs to agree to any change.
What does it cost?
You will have a price for the work before an engineer starts. If something behind the wall changes the scope, we pause and talk it through with you rather than carrying on and billing you afterwards.
