It’s not uncommon for a boiler to need repairs during its lifespan, especially given how heavily it’s used on a daily basis. This is particularly true during the winter months, when the boiler plays a crucial role in keeping your home warm. A breakdown during this time can leave your home uncomfortably cold, making it essential to ensure your boiler is functioning properly.

One of the most important reasons to have your boiler serviced is the risk of it not completing the combustion process correctly. Incomplete combustion can result in the production of carbon monoxide a harmful and potentially fatal gas if left undetected. Regular servicing also helps ensure your boiler operates at peak efficiency. By having it inspected routinely, an engineer can identify and address any potential issues early, keeping your system running smoothly and safely.

If your shower pressure is low when other taps in the house are running, your household’s water supply is insufficient due to an inadequate plumbing system. If the problem continues when all other taps are off, it’s likely due to leaks.

The easiest way to unclog your toilet is with a plunger, but if you don’t have one on hand, fill the toilet with dish soap or laundry detergent, add a pot of boiling water and then wait a few minutes before flushing

Open the toilet tank and put a few drops of food coloring into the water to check if your toilet is leaking. If the color has changed after 15 minutes, your toilet has a leak, but if the water’s still clear, you do not have a leak.

Domestic plumbing issues are often more complex than they initially appear. Hiring a professional to handle a blockage ensures the problem is properly resolved, reducing the risk of it recurring. Experienced plumbers can also provide valuable advice on how to prevent similar issues from happening in the future.
