Straightforward pricing for Gas and Oil heating systems.
At DT Boiler Services, I keep things simple. A call-out is sometimes the only safe way to diagnose a fault properly – whether it’s a gas boiler, oil boiler, heating issue, or hot water problem.
This page explains exactly what you’re paying for, so there are no surprises.
What Your Call-Out Covers
Your call-out fee includes:
- Time and professional expertise
- Travel to your property
- The first hour on site
- Full diagnostic testing
- Gas Safe safety checks
- Use of tools, meters, and equipment
This applies to both Gas and Oil systems.
You’re paying for the visit, the knowledge, and the diagnostics – not how complicated the fix turns out to be.
If the Fault Is Fixed Within the Hour
If the problem is diagnosed and sorted within the first hour, you only pay the call-out fee.
No extra labour charge.
Many common issues fall into this bracket:
- Gas boiler ignition faults
- Low pressure / no heating
- Faulty sensors
- Stuck valves
- Oil boiler lockouts
- Tripped photocells
- Minor electrical faults
- etc.
If More Work or Parts Are Needed
If the repair requires:
- Extra labour
- Replacement parts
- Specialist work
- Oil line repairs
- Gas boiler components
- Safety-critical parts
The engineer will:
- Explain the problem in plain English
- Give you a fixed price or estimate
- Get your approval before starting anything
Repairs and parts are charged separately from the call-out fee.
You’ll never be charged twice for the same visit.
No hidden fees. No work done without your say-so.
Gas Safety & Oil Safety Standards
Work is carried out to the same standard every time – whether it’s a full breakdown or a quick fix.
Gas systems include:
- Gas Safe checks
- Combustion analysis
- Ventilation checks
- Flue safety
- Appliance safety lockouts
- Burner/ignition testing
Oil systems include:
- Burner diagnostics
- Photocell and electrode checks
- Oil pressure & pump checks
- Oil line safety
- Hose inspection
- Fire valve checks
- Combustion analysis
Safety isn’t optional – it’s part of every call-out.
Why Simple Fixes Still Cost a Call-Out Fee
A “quick fix” still involves:
- Setting aside time
- Travelling to the property
- Running combustion/safety checks
- Using diagnostic gear
- Making sure the appliance is safe to run
You’re not paying for how long the screwdriver is in an engineers hand.
You’re paying for a trained, insured professional to attend, diagnose, and keep your system safe.
Evening, Weekend & Emergency Call-Outs
Out-of-hours call-outs (evenings, weekends, urgent requests) use a higher rate.
This covers extended working hours, travel, and immediate availability.
Upfront, Honest, Transparent
My pricing is simple:
- Clear call-out fee
- No hidden extras
- No pressure tactics
- No work carried out without your approval
If you want a reliable, straight-talking Gas Safe / Oil boiler engineer, you’re in the right place.
