Boiler Service Taunton
Annual servicing for homes, flats and rental portfolios
We service boilers in Taunton for homeowners, landlords and letting agents across the town and its villages. Every visit is done by a Gas Safe registered engineer at a price agreed beforehand, and you get a written report of what was checked.
Boiler service in Taunton
Boiler service in Taunton for landlords often means flats along East Reach and the terraces off Priory Bridge Road. If you are near the County Ground, book around cricket days, as parking disappears fast when Somerset are at home. Around Musgrove Park Hospital, where spaces are always in demand, tell us about drives or permits when you book. Whatever the street, the law for landlords is the same: a gas safety check every 12 months, a copy of the record to tenants within 28 days, and records kept for at least two years. The government's guide to landlord safety responsibilities sets out the full list of landlord duties.
Book an annual boiler service anywhere from Norton Fitzwarren to Creech St Michael.
The boilers we service here
Servicing here is mostly gas combis in post-war and newer homes, plus regular and system boilers with cylinders in the older terraces and period houses near the centre. Many older terraces still have a gas fire on an old chimney. New-build boilers under warranty make up a growing share of the visits on the edges of town.

The servicing we do most for homes and lets
Renewals for landlords with several houses
Landlords with a few houses spread across the town often end up with certificates expiring in different months. We use the two-month early renewal window to bring them into line, so all your gas safety records fall due together without losing any time on the existing certificates.
First services on new-build boilers
Many homes on the newer estates were handed over with a boiler registered for a manufacturer warranty. Most warranties need a service within 12 months of installation, then every year. We complete the service record and benchmark log so your warranty stays valid.
Gas fires in older terraces
Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the centre often still have a gas fire as well as the boiler. A gas fire needs a yearly check as much as a boiler does, especially if it flues into an old chimney. We test the fire and flue at the same visit.

Planning your service before the winter rush
September to November is the busiest time for boiler services, because everyone remembers the boiler when the weather turns. Booking in the summer is easier and gives time to fix anything the engineer finds before you need the heat.
For a landlord check, give your tenants written notice of at least 24 hours, and send us the current expiry date. You can renew up to two months early and keep the same expiry date, so there is no need to wait until the last week. If the house has a gas fire on an old chimney, mention it when you book, as the flue test adds time to the visit and we will allow for it.
Make sure there is a working carbon monoxide alarm in any room with a gas boiler or gas fire. If it is missing or past its expiry date, we can fit a new one during the service. Our page on carbon monoxide alarm fitting explains where alarms should go.

Boiler installation TauntonBoiler Service Taunton FAQs
My tenant will not let the engineer in. What do I do?
Keep a record of every attempt, as landlords must show they took all reasonable steps. Give written notice, offer different times, and we can rebook at short notice. Your letting agent or the council can advise if it keeps happening.
How long does a service take?
Most services take under an hour for one boiler. A landlord check on a house with a gas fire and hob as well takes longer, because every appliance and flue is tested and recorded. We give you a time window when you book so you can plan the day.
What should I pay?
We fix the price before booking, so the figure you are quoted is the figure you pay. It changes with the number of appliances and whether you need a certificate. See boiler service cost for the factors, and ask a gas safe engineer from our team for your exact price.
Can I renew my gas safety certificate early without losing time?
Yes. Since 2018 landlords can have the check done up to two months before the current record expires and keep the original expiry date. So a check done in October on a record expiring in December still runs to the following December. It makes booking much easier, especially across several properties.
Do you check gas fires during a service?
Yes. Tell us what gas appliances you have when you book, and we test them all in the same visit. A gas fire on an old chimney needs its flue checked carefully, as a blocked flue can push carbon monoxide back into the room. We record everything on the service report or gas safety record.
