How often does your boiler break down?

Is this the first time your boiler has broken down? If so, a boiler repair will be good enough to get the job done.

While it may be more expensive up front, it will be much more sensible in the long run. Your new boiler shouldn't need repairing for years to come, saving you money in the future.

If the repair is on the cheap side, this may be the better option for you!
