Low boiler pressure is one of the most common reasons heating fails. This guide explains the usual causes, what to check yourself, and when a Gas Safe engineer is needed for a lasting fix.

Pressure loss is usually caused by a system leak, bleeding radiators, or a faulty pressure relief valve. If pressure keeps dropping after re-pressurising, there is likely an underlying fault that needs professional diagnosis.

If you have re-pressurised your boiler but pressure falls again within days, call a Gas Safe engineer. Persistent pressure loss can indicate a small leak in the system, a failing expansion vessel, or a PRV that needs replacing.

Boiler Repairs — Frequently Asked Questions

Can you repair my boiler same-day? +
Yes, we offer same-day and next-day boiler repairs in most cases. Many repairs are completed within 24–48 hours of your call. We have no call-out fee if you proceed with the repair, so you only pay for the actual work required. For emergency heating loss situations, call us 24/7 and we'll prioritise your appointment.
Do you charge a call-out fee? +
No call-out fee if you proceed with the repair. You only pay for the parts and labour for the actual repair work needed. We provide a free diagnostic assessment and written quote before starting any work — you're under no obligation to proceed.
How do I know you're Gas Safe registered? +
All our engineers are fully Gas Safe registered. We provide proof of registration with every service visit, and you can independently verify our registration on the official Gas Safe website at gassaferegister.co.uk.
How much does a typical boiler repair cost? +
Boiler repair costs vary depending on the problem and required parts. Simple repairs like thermostat replacements might cost £100–300, while more complex repairs could range from £300–600+. We always provide a free diagnostic and written quote before proceeding. Emergency repairs outside business hours may incur an additional fee.
What if my boiler can't be repaired? +
If repair is not viable — because the boiler is beyond economic repair, spare parts are unavailable, or continuing repairs would be uneconomical — we'll recommend a replacement. We can discuss replacement options, financing, and installation timelines. You won't be charged for the diagnostic assessment.
Do you repair all boiler brands? +
We repair virtually all major boiler brands including Worcester, Vaillant, Baxi, Ideal, Viessmann, Ariston, Ferroli, and many others. Our engineers have expertise across system boilers, combi boilers, and conventional boilers. We stock common spare parts and can often repair boilers same-day.
What's your warranty on repairs? +
All parts we install come with manufacturer warranties, typically 12 months for parts and 12 months for labour. We guarantee our workmanship and stand behind every repair. If an issue persists after repair, contact us for a free follow-up visit.
