A boiler service isn’t just about ticking a box – it’s about protecting what matters most:
Every Home Assist 365 boiler service is comprehensive and thorough. We don’t cut corners. Here’s exactly what we check:
The Best Time:
Most people book their boiler service in late summer or early autumn (August to October). This is ideal because:
However, we service boilers all year round. If your last service was more than 12 months ago, book now regardless of the season.
Annual Boiler Service: £89
Includes everything listed above plus a written report and safety certificate. No VAT, no hidden extras, no call-out charges
Here’s what to expect when our engineer arrives:
Our engineer will arrive in a marked Home Assist 365 van, introduce themselves, and show you their Gas Safe ID card. We'll lay down dust sheets to protect your floors and set up our equipment.
We'll check the boiler externally, look at the flue, and ask about any issues you've noticed – unusual noises, error codes, or performance problems.
This is the main part. We'll open up the boiler, remove and clean the burner, check all internal components, and carry out the full checklist detailed above.
Once everything's clean and checked, we'll reassemble the boiler, fire it up, and test heating and hot water. We'll also check system pressure and top up if needed.
We'll give you a written service report, explain any issues we found, and provide fixed-price quotes for any recommended repairs. No pressure to proceed – the choice is yours.

Here’s everything our engineers check during your annual boiler service. We follow manufacturer guidelines and Gas Safe standards for every inspection.
Before We Start: We’ll ask about any issues you’ve noticed – unusual noises, error codes, or performance problems. This helps us focus on potential problem areas.
Visual External Checks: We inspect the boiler casing for damage, corrosion, or signs of leaking. We check all visible pipework connections for leaks or corrosion. We examine the flue terminal outside for blockages, damage, or incorrect positioning. We verify adequate ventilation around the boiler – blocked vents are dangerous.
Opening Up the Boiler: We remove the boiler casing to access internal components. We photograph the inside if we find anything concerning – so you can see exactly what we’re talking about.
Gas Safety Tests: We test gas pressure at the meter and at the boiler – low pressure causes poor performance. We check for gas leaks at every connection point using detection equipment. We test the flame picture – it should be blue and stable, not yellow or flickering. We verify the flame failure device works – this cuts the gas if the flame goes out. We check flue gas analysis – measuring carbon monoxide and combustion efficiency.
Cleaning and Internal Inspection: We remove and clean the main burner – carbon buildup reduces efficiency. We inspect the heat exchanger for cracks, corrosion, or scaling. We clean the spark electrodes – dirty electrodes cause ignition problems. We check the fan – it must spin freely and be free from debris. We inspect all internal seals and gaskets for wear.
System Performance: We test the central heating – all radiators should heat evenly. We test hot water – checking temperature and flow rate. We verify the pump operates correctly and isn’t noisy or seized. We check system pressure and top up if needed. We test all thermostats and controls respond correctly.
After the Service: We reset the boiler, fire it up, and monitor its operation. We update your boiler’s service record. We complete your written service report with any recommendations. We clean up and restore everything to how we found it.
Final Safety Checks: We test the pressure relief valve operates correctly. We check the expansion vessel pre-charge pressure. We verify the condensate drain isn’t blocked – a blocked drain will shut down the boiler. We ensure all safety devices function as designed.
At Home Assist 365, our values are rooted in reliability, honesty, and high-quality workmanship. We believe in clear communication, fair and transparent pricing, and completing every job correctly the first time. Our engineers focus on safe, efficient, long-term heating solutions rather than short-term fixes, ensuring lasting peace of mind. Every customer is treated with care, respect, and dependable support, 365 days a year.
Every 12 months, without fail. Annual servicing keeps your boiler safe, efficient, and reliable. It’s also a requirement to maintain your manufacturer’s warranty. Think of it like an MOT for your car – essential, not optional.
Most services take 45-60 minutes. Our engineer will need access to your boiler and will test hot water and heating afterwards. If we find a problem that needs immediate attention, it may take slightly longer while we explain the issue and options.
We’ll explain the issue clearly, tell you if it’s urgent or can wait, and provide a fixed price quote for the repair. You decide whether to proceed – no pressure, no obligation. If it’s a safety issue, we’ll make sure you understand the risks, but the decision is always yours.
Yes. Our engineers are trained on all major brands including Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi, Viessmann, Glow-worm, Potterton, Alpha, and more. We service combi boilers, system boilers, and regular boilers. If it’s a gas boiler, we can service it.
Absolutely. All our Care Plans include an annual service plus breakdown cover, priority callouts, and discounted repairs. Plans start from £14.99 per month and it’s far better value than paying separately for service and cover.
Yes – or someone over 18 needs to be there to let our engineer in and out. The service takes about an hour and our engineer may need to test hot water taps and check radiators in different rooms.
Yes, you’ll receive a full service report on completion. This documents all the checks carried out and any recommendations. It’s useful for your records and essential if you’re a landlord.
You still need an annual service – in fact, most manufacturer warranties require it. We’ll service your boiler to the manufacturer’s specification and our service counts towards maintaining the warranty.
