When should you call an engineer?

Common questions

Knowledge Centre FAQs

Answers to common questions about using our plumbing, boiler and heating guides safely.

Cannot find the right answer?

Speak with the Keystone London team and explain the problem you are experiencing.

Call 02033 699 999
How do I find the right guide for my problem?

Begin with the symptom you have noticed, such as no hot water, low or high boiler pressure, unusual noises, cold radiators or ignition failure. The relevant guide explains common causes and sensible next steps.

Can I repair a boiler problem myself?

You can perform basic user checks described in the relevant guide, such as checking boiler pressure, thermostat settings or whether the property has power. Never remove the boiler casing or attempt to repair gas or internal components yourself.

Can one fault cause both no heating and no hot water?

Yes. Low pressure, ignition problems, system lockouts, controls and internal component faults can affect both heating and hot water. Check whether the boiler is displaying a fault or error code.

What should I do if my boiler is leaking?

Switch the heating off if it is safe to do so, protect the surrounding area from water and arrange an inspection. Do not remove the boiler casing. Read our boiler leaking guide for further information.

What should I do during a plumbing emergency?

If it is safe, isolate the affected water supply and move belongings away from the leak. For uncontrolled water, burst pipes or overflowing fixtures, contact an emergency plumber as soon as possible.

When should I call a Gas Safe engineer?

Call a Gas Safe engineer when a boiler repeatedly locks out, will not ignite, leaks, displays a persistent fault code or requires access to internal components. Suspected gas or combustion problems require urgent professional attention.
