Standing at the sink or in the shower waiting for hot water can quickly turn from a mild annoyance into daily frustration. In my experience of over fifteen years working hands on in plumbing and heating across South Yorkshire this is one of the most common issues homeowners raise.

When your boiler starts acting up, it is easy to feel unsure about what is safe to check yourself and what should be left to a professional.

When your boiler stops working properly, it rarely gives you much warning. One moment everything is fine and the next you have no heating, no hot water, or worrying noises coming from the unit.
