Boiler servicing prices vary, but you can usually estimate the cost pretty accurately once you know what type of boiler you have and what level of service you’re booking.
Below is a practical guide to typical boiler service costs in Middlesbrough and Teesside, what affects the price, and what a proper service should include.
Typical boiler service costs (guide)
Most homeowners will fall into one of these:
- Standard boiler service: typically a fixed price (commonly £60–£90)
- Boiler service + minor adjustments: usually a bit more depending on parts/time
- Landlord gas safety check (CP12): often priced per property/appliance set (see Landlords and Gas Safety Certificates)
Exact pricing depends on your boiler, access, and what’s included.
What affects the price?
Boiler type
- Combi boilers are often straightforward to service.
- System / regular boilers can take longer, especially if access is tight or the setup is older.
Age and condition
If a boiler hasn’t been serviced for years, the engineer may need extra time cleaning components, checking for wear, and confirming safe operation.
Access
Boilers in cupboards, lofts, or awkward locations can add time.
What’s included in the service
Not every “boiler service” is the same. A proper service should include (as appropriate to the appliance):
- Visual checks for leaks/corrosion
- Safety checks (including flue and ventilation)
- Internal checks/cleaning where required
- Checking pressures and basic performance
- Confirmation of any issues found and what’s recommended next
How often should a boiler be serviced?
- Once per year is the usual recommendation.
- If you’re a landlord, you’ll also need annual gas safety compliance for relevant appliances.
When a service isn’t enough
If you’re seeing issues like frequent pressure drops, banging/noises, inconsistent hot water, or repeated fault codes, you may need a repair rather than a service.
