FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions About Boiler Engineers in Durham

Answers to common questions about boiler repairs, Gas Safe engineers, servicing, replacement boilers and heating problems in Durham.

Are your boiler engineers in Durham Gas Safe registered?

Yes. McCarthy & Son is Gas Safe registered, and gas boiler repairs, servicing and installation work is undertaken by appropriately qualified engineers.

Can I arrange an emergency boiler engineer in Durham at weekends?

Yes. We provide 24-hour emergency boiler and heating assistance, seven days a week, including weekends and overnight, for urgent breakdowns throughout Durham and surrounding communities.

Why does my boiler keep losing pressure after I top it up?

Repeated pressure loss may indicate a problem involving the boiler or another part of the central heating system. Continually topping up the pressure does not address the underlying fault. Our engineers can investigate the cause and determine the appropriate repair.

What should I do if my boiler displays a fault code?

Make a note of the fault code and consult the manufacturer's instructions for its meaning. Avoid attempting internal boiler repairs yourself. If the problem continues, a Gas Safe engineer can investigate the fault and determine what work is required.

How often should a boiler be serviced in a Durham property?

Gas boilers should generally receive an annual service in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Routine servicing helps check the boiler's condition and operation and provides an opportunity to identify developing problems.

Can you replace an old boiler in a Durham terraced house?

Yes. We provide boiler installation and replacement for properties of different ages and sizes. Our engineers can assess the existing heating system and recommend a suitable replacement based on the property's requirements.

Can you investigate why one radiator is cold while the others work?

Yes. A radiator that remains cold may have a problem involving its components, heating controls or the circulation of water through the system. Our engineers can investigate the cause and carry out suitable repairs.
