Close By When Your Boiler Stops

Redbourn is one of the closest villages to our base on Lemsford Road, just up the A5183. That makes it one of the quickest places for us to reach when a boiler breaks down, although the exact time always depends on the day’s bookings, so we will give you an honest arrival time when you call.

The village’s older homes bring their own repair challenges. In the cottages and period properties around the High Street and Church End, boilers are often squeezed into lofts, under stairs or into kitchen cupboards, which makes access and part replacement fiddly. On more exposed sites, condensate pipes running outside can freeze in a hard frost and shut the boiler down.

We diagnose the fault, explain it and agree the price before repairing anything. If the boiler is past it, we will talk you through a replacement. For other work in the village, see our Redbourn plumbing and heating page.

Common Redbourn Boiler Problems

These are faults we regularly deal with in the village’s mix of old and newer homes.

  • Frozen Condensate Pipe: In cold snaps the external condensate pipe can freeze. We thaw it and improve the run to stop it happening again.

  • Loft and Cupboard Boilers: Boilers in tight spaces can overheat or be hard to service. We repair them and advise if access or ventilation needs improving.

  • Low Pressure: Pressure that keeps dropping usually means a leak or failed component somewhere in the system.

  • Ignition Faults: Boilers that try to fire but fail, often due to a worn electrode or gas valve issue.

  • No Hot Water: On combis, a faulty diverter valve; on older systems, a stuck valve or failed cylinder thermostat.

Really happy with the work carried out by Alban Plumbing and Heating. They fitted several new radiators in my home and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. They arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and took great care while working in the house. The installation was completed to a high standard, everything was left clean and tidy, and the new radiators look fantastic and heat up perfectly. It's refreshing to find a company that is reliable, communicates well, and clearly takes pride in their work. I wouldn't hesitate to use Alban Plumbing and Heating again and would happily recommend them to friends and family.

Excellent service from Alban Plumbing and Heating Ltd. I contacted them for a plumbing and heating issue at my property in St Albans, and the whole experience was excellent from start to finish. The engineer arrived on time, quickly identified the problem, and explained everything clearly before carrying out the work. The job was completed to a high standard, and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. What stood out most was their professionalism, reliability, and honest approach. Communication was great throughout, and the pricing was fair with no unexpected surprises. I would highly recommend Alban Plumbing and Heating Ltd to anyone in St Albans and the surrounding areas looking for a trustworthy plumbing and heating company. I will definitely use them again in the future.

Asif has done a great job looking after our plumbing and heating for several years now. He also recently attended in under an hour to fix an emergency leak that he and his son sorted with great efficiency allowing us to get back to work and continue operating with minimal disruption to our business and patients. He’s reasonably priced and friendly and I’m sure we will be using him for many years to come. His 5 star status is well deserved.
