Fast breakdown repairs from Gas Safe engineers
Prime Gas Services repairs boilers across Kettering, Northampton, Corby, Wellingborough and nearby towns, with most repairs costing £100 to £400 depending on the fault and parts. Repair quotes are free unless a call-out is needed. We aim to attend the same day, and if that is not possible we offer a next-day appointment. All engineers are Gas Safe registered and carry card machines.
When your boiler stops working, you want someone who turns up and fixes it.
Our engineers find the cause rather than guessing at it. Whether it is a fault code, a boiler that keeps losing pressure, no hot water or a noisy pump, we test the system properly, explain what we have found and give you the price before any work goes ahead.
Loss of pressure is one of the most common calls we get. It can come from a leak on the boiler or the system, a faulty expansion vessel or a pressure relief valve that has failed. A Gas Safe registered engineer should always investigate it, rather than you repeatedly topping it up.
If your boiler shows a fault code, note it down and check it against the manufacturer's user guide, then give us a call.
We cover almost every make and model, including Baxi, Vaillant, Worcester Bosch and Ideal. If a boiler is old enough that repairs no longer make sense, we will tell you honestly and talk you through the options for a replacement.

I have used Prime Gas Services for a gas safety and service on one boiler and a repair on another boiler and heating system. Booking the visits was a simple process. Kadi was very helpful and polite.Jay arrived on time and communicated well. He texted to tell me that he was about 5 minutes away. He was very polite and listened to my explanation of the problem. The company has a broad depth of skills that can help with the diagnosis of any problems with a system. Both jobs were completed on time and with a lot of useful information and explanations.The company is reliable with impeccable time keeping, their knowledge and customer service is of the highest standard. The communication was very good, polite and extremely helpful, updating me at every opportunity.I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and will be using them in the future.

I required a boiler service so I used this company due to the positive reviews. Nathan arrived on time, even called to say he was on his way. Fab! When he arrived he was polite and professional. He was also thorough as he carried out the boiler service, explaining why he had to carry out certain tasks. He also provided useful and helpful information with regard to the radiator valves. Excellent customer service - glad I found this company. Competitive price. I recommend.
James McBride

It was boiler service and the appointed engineer was from Prime Gas Services.Sadly, the boiler needed a replacenent internal seal and a set of what I"ll call the igniters as these had started to work intermitently.Parts came in a couple of days, fitted quickly and all back up and running very quickly.
Michael & Annmarie Kettridge
We had a leak from our boiler, our usual plumber wasn't able to carry out the work for us and highly recommended Prime Gas Services, Nathan was able to advise on how to temporarily sort the situation until a new boiler could be fitted.Jay came to fit the boiler, excellent job carried out, very clean and tidy.We would highly recommend this company, thanks again for everything.
Beverley Matthews
Nathan was responsive, friendly, generous with time and knowledge (he happily helped me with questions I had about another gas-related matter), and I felt I had a tradesman I could trust.
Kathleen Randall

Rea “Steamer”
Always an excellent service. Always on timeand competitive pricing. Response is quick and always arrive on time. Can highly recommend this company
Muriel Clarke
Nathan installed a new gas boiler for me, after initially coming out to check positioning and discussing our needs from the system. He completed the work in a professional manner and took the time to explain the workings, adjusted some radiators that were already existing ( which my previous maintenance plan with a main supplier had never got round to sorting out) and ensured I knew about the warranty on the boiler. He was a tidy worker and very polite , staying within the quoted price he originally supplied, would definitely recommend.
Jack Marr

Excellent gas and plumbing services. Great communication, straightforward quotes and good prices. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
Peter James
Excellent service over the Christmas holiday period would highly recommend this company
Phil Knight
The workmanship and customer service is second to none. Nathan spent several hours over the Bank Holiday weekend costing up a new boiler system for us after ours was condemned. He took the time to discuss both the most appropriate system for us and also cost. He spent an hour with us on Sunday measuring up and explaining what would be carried out. The installation started on Wednesday. The job took 3 days to complete and an exceptional installation was carried out by Jay and Nathan. Nothing was to much trouble and any questions we had were answered with knowledge. An excellent company who we would highly recommend. It's so nice to shower again with hot water!
Andrew Smalley

Most installations take one day, but larger jobs can take up to three days. We will tell you which to expect when we quote.
Not all systems need a powerflush. If your radiators have cold spots or are not heating up, a powerflush would likely benefit your system, and we will advise you honestly during the survey.
Most new boiler installations cost between £1,900 and £4,000 supplied and fitted. The price depends on the boiler, the type of system you have and any changes to pipework or the boiler's position. Quotes are free.
We fit leading brands including Baxi, Vaillant, Worcester Bosch and Ideal, and we will recommend the right boiler for your home and budget.
There are several common causes, including a water leak on the boiler or heating system, a faulty expansion vessel or a failed pressure relief valve. We always suggest having a Gas Safe registered engineer investigate rather than repeatedly topping it up yourself.

A boiler service costs between £85 and £150 depending on the type of boiler and system.
An annual service keeps your boiler running safely and efficiently, catches small faults early and is usually required to keep the manufacturer warranty valid.
Most systems are suitable for a powerflush. We will check your system first and tell you if it is not right for you.
Powerflushing can improve the efficiency of your heating system by around 7%.
Common signs are radiators that are cold at the bottom or have cold spots, a noisy boiler or pump, dirty water when you bleed a radiator, and heating that takes a long time to warm up.
A powerflush costs between £400 and £600 depending on the size of the system and the number of radiators.
If the existing system has sludge or cold spots, flushing it before the new boiler goes in helps protect the new boiler. If the system is clean, we will not recommend one.
