How the Fantastic hot water service repairs in Melbourne goes

The boiler repair experts follow a well-devised service delivery protocol that includes a few straightforward steps. Regardless of whether you’ve booked your annual boiler servicing with us or you need our hot water system repair assistance, expect the following on your appointment day:

  1. The experienced local plumber will arrive, equipped with advanced diagnostic tools to inspect and address the repair issue with your hot water unit or to simply service your boiler and the system’s components.
  2. The specialist will advise you on whether the repair can be completed on that day or in some cases, on whether your boiler can be fixed at all. In the later case, you’ll be given a range of boiler replacement options.
  3. Depending on what needs doing, you may be given a quote there and then. For more complex hot water system repair or replacement projects, you’ll be sent a price estimate within a couple of days after all specifics of the service have been discussed in advance.
  4. A second appointment will be arranged if additional parts are needed, which can be supplied by the plumber and will be included in the final price. You can also opt for getting the parts yourself.
  5. Once the hot water servicing or boiler repair job has been performed, the plumbing technician will test the boiler and the entire hot water system to make sure that everything operates efficiently and as it should.

Note that the expert will need easy access to the main water valve to be able to deliver any hot water repairs or service your immersion/gas water heater.

What does our hot water system service in Melbourne cover?

Our company specialises in a range of hot water system services, from new installations, boiler replacements and hot water unit repairs to annual inspections and hot water servicing. The Fantastic hot water technicians are fully certified and trained to perform the following plumbing tasks:

  • Hot water system repairs - This can include all sorts of fixes that need to be done, be it on the hot water unit itself or on any of your water heating system’s components like piping, radiators and connections. Sometimes, the issue may be resolved with a straightforward heating system power flush that will restore the efficient operation of your system.
  • Boiler repairs - Regardless of what type of boiler you have - electric, gas, combo and so on, the skilled plumber will get to the bottom of the issue and fix it by replacing the faulty part, either on the same day or during a second appointment, once they source the needed element.
  • Hot water heater replacement - You can request for your old boiler (vented, unvented, regular, combo, etc.) to be replaced if it’s beyond repair or it costs you too much and too often to be fixed. The hot water engineer will discuss with you your individual needs and check the condition of any existing pipework before advising you on your best boiler replacement options. You’ll be provided with a quote shortly after. Note that we may be able to dispose of your old boiler, upon request.
  • New boiler installation - We offer expert consultations on new boiler installations, after a detailed on-site survey that is designed to determine your property’s hot water needs. Again, the plumber will take into consideration the size of your property (newly built or not) and your specific requests. You’ll be provided with a quote by the hot water system installer that includes the cost of the new hot water unit and the labour.
  • Boiler and water heating system servicing - The service includes a thorough inspection of the boiler (all piping, connections and electric components; gas flue check, gas rate and gas tightness check, etc.). The plumber will use a range of diagnostic tools (gas flue analyser or electric multimeter, for instance), in order to make sure that your hot water unit is combusting correctly, as well as that there are no leaks or electrical malfunctions. Your entire system will be tested before you’re given a detailed service report.

Q: How is the service charged?

Q: Do you provide boiler repairs, regardless of what type of hot water unit I have?
A: Absolutely. The plumbing experts we rely on in Melbourne are certified and trained to service and fix gas boilers, solar heating systems, electric hot water units and oil boilers, as well.
Q: Is it normal for my water heater to make noises?
