As a rough guide, if a repair quote comes to more than a third of the cost of a new boiler especially on a boiler that's over 10-15 years old replacement is usually the better long-term decision. We'll always give you an honest assessment rather than push you towards the more expensive option. - https://www.ettaplumbing.co.uk/blog/signs-you-need-a-new-boiler-not-another-repair

Most straightforward boiler swaps are completed within a single day. If the boiler needs to be relocated, or the system requires significant changes, it may take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeframe when we quote. - https://www.ettaplumbing.co.uk/blog/new-boiler-installation-derby-2026-cost-guide
-
Boiler size depends on the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and your hot water demand. A typical 3-bed home usually needs a combi boiler in the 24-30kW range, but getting this wrong can leave you with poor pressure or an oversized system burning money. We size every boiler properly before we quote. - https://www.ettaplumbing.co.uk/blog/combi-vs-system-vs-regular-boiler-which-one-do-you-need
-
Yes, it's a legal requirement in the UK. Anyone working on a gas boiler must be Gas Safe registered. Etta Plumbing engineers are Gas Safe registered (No. 166252). Always ask to see an engineer's ID card before any work starts. - https://www.ettaplumbing.co.uk/blog/boiler-service-derby-whats-included-and-how-often

In some cases, yes, it depends on parts availability and the scope of the job. Call us on 01332 204533 and we'll tell you what's possible for your situation.
-
A warranty covers manufacturing faults and parts for a set period after installation provided by the boiler manufacturer. A service plan is a separate ongoing agreement covering annual servicing and can include priority callouts and discounted repairs. Both are worth having; they cover different things. - https://www.ettaplumbing.co.uk/blog/boiler-service-derby-whats-included-and-how-often
