Annual boiler servicing, Nailsea
Long boiler guarantees sound reassuring, but they usually come with conditions. The most common is an annual service carried out by a suitably registered engineer, with a record to prove it. Miss a year, or have the work done by someone who isn’t registered, and a manufacturer may be entitled to turn down a claim when a part fails.
That makes the yearly visit about more than keeping the boiler running. When we service your boiler in Nailsea, we work through the checks for your fuel type, fill in the service record and give you a note of what we did, so the paper trail is there if you ever need it. We service gas, oil and LPG boilers of all common makes.
[VERIFY WITH AMW — that engineers complete the Benchmark / manufacturer service record on every visit and use genuine or approved parts]
Guarantee conditions
Every manufacturer sets its own terms, so always check your paperwork. These are the conditions we see most often, and how a service helps you meet them.
Nearly every guarantee asks for a service at least once a year, often within a set window of the installation anniversary. Diary it and book in good time.
Gas and LPG boilers need a Gas Safe registered engineer; oil boilers are normally serviced by an OFTEC registered technician. Work by anyone else can put your cover at risk.
Most boilers come with a Benchmark checklist in the manual, with pages for each service. We fill it in, so there’s a dated record of every visit.
Many guarantees must be registered with the manufacturer after installation. If you’re not sure yours was, it’s worth checking with them.
Some terms expect the system to be cleaned and protected with inhibitor, and some longer guarantees need a system filter. We test the water and top up inhibitor where required.
If a service turns up a fault, getting it repaired promptly with suitable parts helps avoid a dispute later. We’ll tell you what we find and price it first.

Missed a service?
If your boiler has gone more than a year without a service, book one as soon as you can. Whether a gap affects your guarantee is down to the manufacturer’s terms, and they may treat a short delay differently from a missed year. Getting it serviced now is the best way to limit the damage and to check nothing has been building up in the meantime.
Smell gas? Don’t use electrical switches or naked flames. Open windows, turn off the gas at the meter if you can, leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999.

In most cases, yes. Nearly all manufacturer guarantees require the boiler to be serviced every year by a suitably registered engineer. The exact terms vary by manufacturer and model, so check the paperwork that came with your boiler.
Yes. A gas or LPG boiler must be worked on by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and oil boilers are normally serviced by OFTEC registered technicians. Some manufacturers also ask for genuine parts. Using someone who isn’t registered can put your guarantee at risk.
Book a service and we’ll start a fresh record. If a previous engineer or installer serviced the boiler, they may be able to send you copies. The manufacturer can often confirm whether your guarantee was registered.
Yes. You don’t need to use the original installer to keep most guarantees valid, as long as the engineer is suitably registered and the service is recorded. We service boilers across Nailsea whoever fitted them.
Yes. We work across Nailsea and West End, and in nearby villages such as Backwell, Wraxall, Flax Bourton and Chelvey. Not sure if we reach you? Just give us a call.
Not quite. A gas safety check (CP12) is a legal requirement for landlords, while a service keeps the boiler running well and the guarantee in place. We can do both in one visit; see boiler servicing for landlords.

Local to you
A market town between Bristol and the coast, with a strong local centre and villages all around it.
Nailsea was once known for its glassworks, and it grew quickly from the 1960s onwards as new estates were built around the old village. Today many of its homes are family houses from that period and later, and a good number have had their original boilers replaced with modern combi or system boilers. Newer boilers are the ones most likely to still be under a manufacturer guarantee, so the annual service really counts here.
Around the town, Backwell, Wraxall and Flax Bourton mix village streets with older farmhouses and cottages. Some of those rural homes sit off the gas grid and run on oil or LPG, which is why we keep OFTEC and Gas Safe registered engineers on the team.
