Welcome to visit this blog site! This is Ming Xu, an independent gas engineer in St Albans, Hertfordshire. I have been doing boiler repairs for 11 years, I am proud of my work and I value my customer’s satisfaction.
In 2009, while experienced a few of let downs by local gas engineers on boiler repairs in my rented properties, that was the last stroke to make me into gas engineer career, as I felt boiler repairing shouldn’t be a difficult job, particularly I have engineering background.
Boilers are massively produced by big companies, these manufacturers made technical manuals available to the public, and they still produce spare parts for around 10 more years, and they even have dedicate technical lines to help front line engineers on boiler repairs. Hundreds thousands of boilers were produced for each particular boiler model, some common problems or easily failed parts may have been experienced and subsequently discussed and shared somewhere on the internet. So it is not a rocket science to repair boilers!
Your boiler worked until yesterday, but this morning it stopped working. In 90% chances, the problem is likely by just one failed part. It is the gas engineer responsibility to find this part out, and get a new one and replace it. The most difficult part on boiler repairs is at the fault finding.
This site was created in 2017, actually started in 2020 while whole country is in Covid-19 lockdown. I will share my experiences here. Thank you for your reading.
