Boiler cover vs a one-off boiler service 

You have the option to decide. Our boiler cover is an excellent way to spread the cost of an annual service over the course of 12 months. Our boiler cover includes an annual service and it’s during a boiler service when problems can be spotted. This one reason why our customers enjoy spreading the cost of the service rather than paying in full. Paying for repairs on top of a service can become quite expensive to pay all at once, too. 

Once you sign up, we deal with everything. We remind you when your service is due and then provide you with dates that fit around your busy schedule. It couldn’t be more straightforward. Sign up today and take the easy route.

    Benefits of a Worcester Bosch boiler service

    The whole point of an annual service is to make sure that your boiler is working efficiently and safely. It’s during a service that the engineer will notice any problems with your Worcester Bosch boiler before they start to worsen. An annual service is perfect for keeping your boiler in good working condition. The engineer will visually inspect your boiler and gas appliances, checking the components and ventilation of your boiler. It should take no longer than thirty minutes but will do a whole world of good. 

    FAQs 

    What is the lifespan of a Worcester Bosch boiler?

    The average lifespan of a Worcester Bosch boiler is between 10-15 years old. Usually, it’s around this time when you start noticing problems. You may choose to repair rather than purchase a brand new one which is fair enough. But it’s around this age when a repair is only a temporary fix as the same problems may start happening again. Once you sign up for our boiler cover plan, we’ll take care of any repair you need us to sort out for you.
