Oil Boiler

My oil heating will not come on and I presume it has something to do with the Boiler. Does anyone know of a reliable person who can come out and check to see if it is in fact the Boiler and if so fix it?? Does anyone also know of the approximate cost for call out and repair?? I live in East Belfast. Thanks.

    Sorry if I am pointing out the obvious but...

    1.Have you ran out of oil?

    2. Is the reset button on the boiler lit (red) and have you reset it by pressing it in?

    3. Is the timeclock OK?

    Also, check if there's an overheat light on and reset it, if you can find the optical sensor pull it out and clean it if it's covered in soot.

    We use a guy called billy - provincial boiler services 07828122587, he's very good.
  • It was in fact the timer clock - had 2get a new one - ah well - at least the house is warm :) Thanks for all the previous posts and suggestions :) Very much appreciated.
