Emergency Boiler Lockout
If your boiler keeps locking out and you have no heating or hot water, this service provides urgent, safety-led diagnosis and repair. The aim is to make the system safe first, identify the fault that is triggering the lockout, and restore heat as quickly and reliably as possible.
More information
What an emergency boiler lockout visit covers
A repeated lockout is usually a sign of an underlying fault rather than a one-off reset issue. The visit focuses on safe fault finding and practical restoration.
- Safety checks on the boiler and heating system, with Gas Safe compliant working where required
- Fault diagnosis to identify why the boiler is locking out
- Targeted repairs and adjustments to restore operation where possible
- Advice on immediate steps to prevent repeat lockouts
- Clear explanation of findings, options, and likely next actions if parts are needed
When this service is the right fit
This service is most relevant when:
- The boiler has locked out more than once in a short period
- You have no heating or hot water, especially in cold weather
- The boiler runs briefly then shuts down and shows a fault code
- You are managing a rental property and need essential services restored quickly
- A small commercial space needs heat back to remain operational
How the visit works
You will be asked a few quick questions about symptoms, fault codes, and recent changes to the system. On arrival, the engineer will carry out checks, pinpoint the cause, and confirm what can be done immediately.
Where a safe, lasting repair can be completed on the spot, it will be done. If the issue requires specialist parts or further work, you will be given a clear plan and next steps.
After the lockout is resolved
Once the boiler is running again, you will be advised on any settings, maintenance, or system issues that could trigger repeat lockouts. If follow-up work is needed, you will know what it is, why it matters, and the priority for completing it.
