Whether you have a combi, system or conventional boiler, our Gas Safe registered engineers can diagnose faults and advise on the appropriate repair.

If you are unsure of your boiler’s make or model, we can identify it during the visit and advise on the best course of action.
Boiler Error Codes
If your boiler is displaying an error code, it can help identify the type of fault affecting your heating system. However, the code does not always identify the exact cause, and further diagnosis may be required.
Common boiler faults can include:
- Ignition or flame failure
- Low system pressure
- Overheating
- Sensor faults
- Circulation problems
- Fan or air-pressure faults
- Blocked condensate pipes
- Electrical or control faults
Our engineers can diagnose boiler faults and explain what is causing the problem before carrying out the appropriate repair.
If you know your boiler’s make and error code, our guides may also help:
If the boiler has stopped working or continues to display a fault code after following the manufacturer’s reset instructions, it is best to have the problem professionally diagnosed rather than repeatedly resetting the boiler.

Things to Check Before Calling Us
There are a few simple checks you can make if your boiler stops working:
- Check that the boiler pressure is within the manufacturer’s recommended range.
- Check that your thermostat and heating controls are switched on.
- Check the batteries in your wireless thermostat or heating controls.
- If you have a prepayment gas meter, check that there is credit available.

Boiler Service in Liverpool
If your boiler is due for its annual service, we also provide boiler servicing in Liverpool for a wide range of gas boilers.
A boiler service is different from a boiler repair. Servicing is carried out to check the boiler is operating safely and efficiently, while a repair is needed when a fault or breakdown has occurred.
If your boiler is currently working but is due a service, visit our Boiler Servicing Liverpool page for more information.
If your boiler has stopped working or developed a fault, our boiler repair service can diagnose the problem and advise on the appropriate repair.
Customer Help – Boiler Advice
Before calling a heating engineer, there are a few simple checks you can make yourself. The following videos show how to safely check and top up the pressure on two common types of boiler.
How to Fill Up an Ideal Boiler
If your Ideal boiler has low system pressure, our video shows how to top up the pressure correctly.
How to Fill Up a Worcester Boiler
This video shows how to fill a Worcester Greenstar 1000, 2000 or 4000 combi boiler to approximately 1.5 bar.
If your boiler has low pressure and you are unsure how to repressurise it, check the manufacturer’s instructions or contact a Gas Safe registered engineer.
If your boiler is displaying an error code, make a note of the code before contacting us. Telling us the symptoms you’re experiencing can also help us get a better understanding of the problem before attending.
Who Should You Call If Your Boiler Stops Working?
If your boiler has stopped working, you should use a Gas Safe registered heating engineer to diagnose and repair the fault. Gas boilers should only be worked on by appropriately qualified professionals.
Before calling, make a note of your boiler’s make and model, any error code displayed and the symptoms you are experiencing. This information can help us understand the problem before we attend.
If you need a boiler repair in Liverpool, you can contact Aigburth Plumbing & Heating on 07927 062866 or 0800 193 3006.
How Much Is a Boiler Service in Liverpool?
Our boiler servicing in Liverpool starts from £80. The cost can vary depending on the type of boiler and any additional work that may be required.
If your boiler is working but is due its annual service, you can find more information on our Boiler Servicing Liverpool page.
If your boiler has developed a fault or stopped working, our boiler repair service can diagnose the problem and advise on the appropriate repair.
Is It Worth Repairing a Boiler?
Whether it is worth repairing a boiler depends on its age, condition, the fault involved and the likely cost of the repair.
A relatively new boiler with a straightforward fault will often be worth repairing, while an older boiler requiring expensive or repeated repairs may make replacement a more sensible long-term option.
We can assess your boiler, explain what has gone wrong and provide honest advice on whether repairing or replacing the boiler is likely to be the better option. We will not recommend a new boiler simply because a repair is possible.
Is Boiler Repair Classed as an Emergency?
A boiler breakdown can be an emergency, particularly if you have no heating or hot water, but some situations require more urgent attention than others.
If you smell gas, suspect a gas leak or believe there may be a risk of carbon monoxide, do not attempt to repair the boiler yourself. Turn off the gas supply if it is safe to do so, avoid using electrical switches or naked flames, leave the property if necessary and contact the appropriate emergency gas service.
For a boiler that has stopped working without an immediate safety risk, our Gas Safe registered engineers can assess the fault and advise on the appropriate repair.
If you smell gas, contact Cadent immediately rather than waiting for a boiler repair appointment.
Why Does the Boiler Pressure Keep Dropping?
If your boiler pressure keeps dropping, there could be several possible causes. A loss of pressure can be caused by a leak somewhere in the heating system, a problem with the expansion vessel, a faulty pressure relief valve or an issue with the boiler itself.
Bleeding radiators can also cause the pressure to fall because air is released from the heating system. If you regularly need to top up the boiler pressure, this should not be ignored, as there may be an underlying fault that needs to be diagnosed.
Our Gas Safe registered engineers can check the boiler and heating system to identify why the pressure is dropping and advise on the appropriate repair.
If your boiler pressure is repeatedly falling or you notice water leaking from the boiler or heating system, contact us to arrange a boiler repair in Liverpool.
Would a Plumber Fix a Boiler?
A plumber may be able to help with some parts of a heating system, but gas boiler repairs must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer who is qualified to work on gas appliances.
If your gas boiler has stopped working, is losing pressure, displaying a fault code or is not providing heating or hot water, it is important to have the fault properly diagnosed rather than attempting to repair it yourself.
At Aigburth Plumbing & Heating, our Gas Safe registered engineers have over 20 years of hands-on experience diagnosing and repairing gas boilers across Liverpool.
We can identify the cause of the fault, explain the repair options and advise whether repairing the existing boiler or replacing it would be the better option.
