How much does British Gas HomeCare cost?

British Gas HomeCare pricing varies by cover level, boiler age and location. Many customers see prices increase at renewal, with limited flexibility once a contract begins.

While parts, labour and an annual service are included, overall costs can be higher than local engineer-led boiler cover plans.

Can you cancel British Gas HomeCare?

HomeCare plans are typically annual contracts. Cancelling early may involve:

  • Notice periods
  • Early exit restrictions
  • Potential cancellation charges

Because of this, many homeowners plan their switch around renewal.
