Common Boiler Problems We Repair Across York

No Hot Water or Heating

This is often caused by a faulty thermostat, low pressure, or a broken motorised valve. We’ll identify the cause and get your system running again quickly.

Low Boiler Pressure

Low pressure can stop your boiler working properly. We check for leaks, re-pressurise safely, and advise if parts need replacing.

Leaking or Dripping Boiler

Leaks often come from internal parts like the pressure valve or pump seal. We’ll trace the leak and repair it before further damage occurs.

Unusual Noises (Banging, Whistling or Gurgling)

These sounds can mean air in the system, limescale build-up, or pump issues. We’ll inspect the cause and clean or replace parts as needed.

Pilot Light Keeps Going Out

Often a thermocouple or gas supply issue. We’ll test safety features and relight the boiler after correcting the fault.

Error Codes or Flashing Lights

We’re experienced in diagnosing fault codes on most major boiler brands. We carry manuals and tools to deal with the most common alerts.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My boiler got written off so I needed a replacement. Simtec were round as soon as they could to have a look.

Much cheaper and with less disruption than other quotes proposed. I’m really pleased with the service, really clean and tidy with everything they needed to do (better nick than they found it!).

New boiler and flue installed in really good time, and they explained it all really well. Will be using Simtec for my services in future.

Dek from Simtec Heating came to service our boiler and also fixed a couple of other plumbing issues we had around the house.

The service was fast, reliable, and carried out to a high standard.

Excellent customer care throughout – we would definitely recommend Simtec and will be using them again.
