    Servicing contracts we offer:
  • Yearly servicing (a legal requirement for Gas)
  • Tailored Service
  • All in One Service

Yearly servicing

It’s a legal requirement to have your boiler serviced once a year if it is GAS. However we would recommend for safety, efficiency and to lower the chances of failure it is better to have your Gas boiler serviced twice yearly. It is also recommended to have your oil boiler serviced at least once yearly, we would again recommend twice yearly to increase efficiency, reduce costs and to reduce the chances of failure.

Tailored Service

At Geoff Castles we understand that every business has different requirements and this is why we offer tailor made servicing contracts. A boiler may need servicing three times a year or more. This is particularly the case with process boilers, which need to be properly maintained to ensure the smooth operating of an automated factory process. Call us or send us an email to arrange a quote on your heating system.
