Common Boiler Problems We Fix
No Heating or Hot Water
One of the most common boiler problems in Amersham homes, often caused by faulty thermostats, broken diverter valves, or pump failures. Our engineers carry common replacement parts to resolve these issues quickly.
Boiler Pressure Issues
Low or high boiler pressure can prevent your heating system from working properly. We diagnose pressure problems quickly and can fix leaks, replace pressure relief valves, or recharge your system as needed.
Strange Noises
Banging, whistling, or gurgling sounds from your boiler often indicate underlying issues such as kettling, pump problems, or air in the system. Our diagnostic expertise helps identify the exact cause and provide effective solutions.
Pilot Light Problems
For older boilers with pilot lights, issues with ignition can leave you without heating. We repair faulty thermocouples, gas valves, and ignition systems to restore reliable operation.
Error Codes and Lockouts
Modern boilers display error codes when problems occur. Our engineers are trained to interpret these codes across all major boiler brands and can quickly identify and fix the underlying issues.
Radiator Problems
If some radiators aren’t heating properly, the problem may be with your boiler’s pump, diverter valve, or system pressure. We diagnose and repair these issues to restore even heating throughout your Amersham home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How quickly can you respond to boiler breakdowns in Amersham?
For boiler breakdowns in Amersham, we aim to have an engineer with you within 60-120 minutes for genuine emergencies, depending on time of day, weather conditions, and your specific location. For non-emergency boiler repairs, we can typically offer same-day or next-day appointments. Our response times are significantly faster than national companies who often schedule boiler repairs days or weeks in advance, leaving you without heating and hot water when you need it most.
Q: What causes most boiler breakdowns in Amersham?
Common boiler problems in Amersham properties include pressure issues, faulty thermostats, pump failures, and problems with diverter valves. In period properties in Old Amersham, we often see issues related to older pipework and system design. The hard water in the Chiltern area can also cause limescale buildup, leading to blockages and component failures. Our engineers are experienced with all these common issues and carry appropriate parts for quick repairs.
Q: How much does a boiler repair cost in Amersham?
Our boiler repair service starts with an £80 callout and diagnosis fee during normal working hours. After diagnosing the problem, we provide a clear quote for the repair work needed. Most common boiler repairs in Amersham cost between £150-£400 including parts and labour. Complex repairs may cost more, but we always provide detailed quotations before proceeding. Our transparent pricing ensures you never face unexpected costs.
Q: Should I repair or replace my broken boiler?
This depends on several factors including your boiler’s age, the cost of repair, and its overall condition. Generally, if your boiler is under 7 years old, repairs are usually the most cost-effective option. For boilers 8-15 years old, we consider the repair cost against replacement – if repair costs exceed 50% of a new boiler’s price, replacement might be better. Our honest advice helps you make the right decision for your Amersham property without unnecessary sales pressure.
Q: Do you repair all types of boilers in Amersham?
Yes, our Gas Safe registered engineers repair all types of boilers including combi, system, and conventional boilers from all major manufacturers such as Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi, Glow-worm, and more. We also repair both gas and LPG boilers. For oil boilers, our OFTEC registered engineers can handle repairs to oil-fired systems commonly found in rural areas around Amersham.
Q: Do you offer guarantees on boiler repairs?
Yes, all boiler repairs completed by P&R Mechanical come with a comprehensive guarantee covering both parts and labour. The guarantee period varies depending on the type of repair, but typically ranges from 6-12 months. If the same problem recurs within the guarantee period, we’ll return and fix it at no additional charge. This guarantee reflects our confidence in the quality of our workmanship and the genuine parts we use.
