Inspection
Boiler and Furnace Inspection
A structured check of your boiler or furnace: how it is operating, what condition it is in and what maintenance it needs.
Overview
What an inspection tells you
The boiler or furnace is the heart of a central heating system. When something is wrong, it usually shows as poor heating, frequent shutdowns, unusual noises or the system struggling to reach temperature. An inspection gives you a structured look at the unit and its connected components so you know where things stand.
We check how the equipment operates, assess its physical condition and look at how well it is performing against what the building needs. You get a clear explanation of what we found and a prioritised list of recommended maintenance, so you can decide what to do next.
An inspection records the condition and operation of the equipment at the time of the visit. It is not a guarantee of future performance and is not a compliance certificate.

FAQs
Questions about boiler and furnace inspection
Common questions about this service. If yours isn't answered here, ask our team.
01What is the difference between an inspection and a service?
An inspection assesses and reports on the equipment. A service carries out cleaning and adjustments. Many customers book both together; our maintenance and servicing page explains what a service covers.
02Do you inspect both boilers and furnaces?
Yes. We inspect boilers and furnaces used for central heating. Let us know the type of equipment when you enquire.
03Can you carry out the recommended work?
Yes. If the inspection identifies work that is needed, we can quote for it. You decide whether to go ahead.
04How should I prepare for an inspection?
Make sure we can reach the boiler or furnace and the main controls. If you have manuals or previous service records, keep them handy.
05Does an old boiler always need replacing?
Not necessarily. Age alone is not a reason to replace equipment. An inspection shows its condition and performance, so you can compare the cost of repairs with replacement.
