FAQs
Is British Gas boiler breakdown cover the same as a boiler service plan?
Not always. Some plans focus on an annual service, while others include breakdown repairs and call-outs. Always check excess fees, exclusions, and whether the service is bundled or separate.
What should I look for when comparing boiler service plans?
Compare: monthly cost, excess fees, exclusions (age/parts/fault types), response windows, and who actually attends (in-house vs subcontractors). Then match the plan tier to your boiler’s age and reliability.
Do you offer the same-day engineer visits?
We can’t guarantee same-day attendance every time because availability depends on demand and location. What we do provide is clear booking windows, quick communication and a local team covering Surrey & Hampshire daily.
Where can I compare Embassy Gas cover plans?
Go to /plans to compare tiers, what’s included, and what’s excluded — and pick the plan that fits your home.
