You can be certain that you’re talking to the right person at the right time. We automatically connect you to contacts at thousands of household names, ombudsmen and regulators to find a resolution.

Based on resolver’s experience to date, if you choose to use your warranty or guarantee, you should first check the conditions to see if it covers damage. Most warranties and guarantees have a time limit with which they can be used.

Contact the warranty provider and quote the section of the policy document that makes it clear that the remedial work you need doing is covered. If your claim is refused and you feel that your contract has been breached, you should write to the boiler provider, making it clear that you will be claiming for any money spent on a third party repair unless they rectify the situation. Remember to keep evidence of quotes and cost of work and include these in your future claim.

In the case that your warranty doesn’t cover damage, you should check with your home insurance provider to see if they cover it.

It is extremely frustrating when your claim under a warranty or guarantee is rejected.

Remember that this is a good time to check that you are on the best energy tariff for your needs using a price comparison website, so it’s a good idea to take some time to compare prices and switch providers if you find a better deal. As you are moving into a new home you may not have the full details for the energy use in the home so resolver recommends you ask the current owner/occupier for the energy usage via your solicitor or the estate agent.

Price comparison websites often have tools that help you estimate your energy usage and to help you make an informed decision.
