Why Service Your Boiler Every Year?
Keep Your Home Safe
An annual service identifies dangerous faults before they become serious. Carbon monoxide leaks and gas faults are caught early by a qualified Gas Safe engineer
Reduce Your Energy Bills
A well serviced boiler runs more efficiently. Even a small improvement in efficiency can reduce your heating bills meaningfully over a full winter
Protect Your Warranty
Most boiler manufacturers require annual servicing to keep the warranty valid. Skipping a service could invalidate your cover and leave you facing full repair costs
Landlord? It's the Law
Landlords are legally required to arrange an annual gas safety check for all rental properties. We can arrange Gas Safe engineers to carry out the check and provide the required certificate
Landlord Boiler Servicing Sheffield
Landlords in Sheffield have a legal obligation to arrange an annual gas safety inspection for every rental property they own. A Gas Safe registered engineer must carry out the check and provide a Gas Safety Certificate — also known as a CP12 certificate — which must be given to tenants within 28 days of the check.
Sheffield Boiler Repairs can arrange Gas Safe engineers to carry out landlord gas safety checks across all Sheffield postcodes. Whether you own one rental property or a portfolio, we can help arrange annual checks to keep you compliant.
When Should You Service Your Boiler?
The best time to book a boiler service in Sheffield is late summer or early autumn — August to October. This ensures your boiler is checked and ready before the heating season begins. Engineers are also less busy during this period, making it easier to get a convenient appointment.
However a boiler service can be carried out at any time of year. If your boiler hasn't been serviced in the last 12 months it's worth booking one as soon as possible regardless of the season.
