Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do before the heating engineers come?
For a smooth and hassle-free service, make sure the entry for the boiler engineers is facilitated especially if you live in a building with restricted access.
Before the engineer arrives, clear any obstructions around your boiler and secure pets or children away from the work area or the boiler rooms for safety purposes.
If you suspect a gas leak, ventilate the area well without using electrical switches. Also, take into consideration that the engineer has unobstructed access to your home’s water and electrical supply.
Most importantly, make sure someone is available to grant access to your home and have the warranty documents or service records ready for review. List any issues you’ve noticed with your system beforehand, including the make and model of your boiler, to assist in diagnostics.
It is also important for you to think of any questions that you might have regarding the repair or maintenance of your boiler. Rest assured that all our engineers can provide you the necessary information that you need.
Can my boiler be repaired in one visit?
With Rowlen, we take pride in delivering fast, reliable, and cost-effective results. While minor boiler repairs can often be completed within a single visit, more complex issues may require additional time.
Our Gas Safe registered engineers come prepared with common boiler spares and aim to resolve most issues promptly. Our vans are stocked with an array of boiler spare parts, enabling us to perform a majority of domestic boiler repairs without delay.
However, should your heating system require specialized parts, like a Vaillant boiler repair kit or Halstead boiler component, that are not available on-hand, we will provide a fixed price upfront and schedule a follow-up repair.
What happens if my boiler cannot be repaired?
Rowlen will assess your boiler first. If the heating engineer finds it impossible for repair or if repairing your old boiler will cost you more, we will recommend replacing it with a new boiler.
Don’t worry; we will guide you through selecting a new, energy-efficient boiler that suits your Richmond property and provide a professional boiler installation service.
