What to consider before choosing a service plan

Regular servicing matters for warranty validity and for catching developing faults before they become bigger problems, and there are a few things worth thinking through when deciding how to arrange ongoing servicing for your property.

Key points on service plan considerations

  • Manufacturer warranty terms commonly require an annual service
  • Landlord gas safety checks can often be combined with routine servicing
  • Consistent service history is useful when selling a property later
  • Scheduling servicing at a similar time each year helps avoid missed intervals
  • Service records should be kept safely alongside other boiler paperwork

The engineering behind service plan considerations

Manufacturer warranties commonly require an annual service to remain valid, so checking your specific terms is a sensible starting point. Beyond that, considerations include how servicing fits around your household's schedule, whether a landlord's annual gas safety check can be combined with a routine service visit, and keeping consistent service records for your own reference and any future sale of the property.

Questions we get asked

Is an annual service always required for warranty purposes?
Check your specific manufacturer's terms, since requirements vary, but annual servicing is commonly specified.
Can a service and a landlord gas safety check happen at the same visit?
Often yes, which can be a practical way to combine the two requirements efficiently.

Where this leaves you: Servicing decisions come down to your warranty terms, household schedule and any landlord obligations — worth reviewing together, not separately.
