If you are taking out cover for the first time, or you have a gap in cover, you will not be able to claim for any faults that occur within the first 14 days of sign up. This is to prevent claims being made for pre-existing faults and helps us to keep our prices low.

No, we can most effectively deliver our optimum service by using our national network of engineers from the following: 

• Key boiler manufacturers – so we can fix over 95% of their boiler breakdowns on the first visit
• Metro Rod – so we can deliver a rapid emergency response, nationwide, 24/7/365
• Over 5,000 independent approved Gas Safe heating engineers – so we can cover all over the UK
• Most major kitchen appliance manufacturers – so we can send engineers who are familiar with the equipment. 

Absolutely, our engineers are vetted to ensure the highest possible standards, we:

• Audit and inspect jobs upon completion
• Hold a copy of their Public Liability Insurance on file
• Inspect their relevant trade qualifications, such as their Gas Safe® Registration, to ensure that they are fully qualified to carry out your repair
• Put service level agreements in place to ensure your expectations are met
• Ensure they adhere to Health and Safety regulations.

Once you’ve signed up, you will receive an email from us with your login details to our client portal. Please log in and complete as much information about your boiler as possible. The more information you provide, the quicker and more effectively we will be able to deal with any future repairs. Then you can sit back and relax.

From your portal you can also download and view your Welcome Pack - we recommend you do this when you first log-in as it gives you all the information you need about your policy and how to contact us.

Our Contract Term is 12 months, meaning you're only ever committed to us for a year at a time. However at YourRepair we give you the option to fix your monthly price for up to 3 years - giving you peace of mind regardless of how many claims you make. Whether you choose a 1, 2 or 3 year Fixed Price Term, your Contract Term remains at 12 months. 

You will receive an email 30 days before the end of your Fixed Price Term advising you of your renewal price. Please ensure your email address is up to date within your customer portal. (Occasionally email filters may send this email into your spam folder so be sure to check) 

If we do not receive any correspondence from you within those 30 days your contract will renew for an additional 12 months. If, once you receive your renewal notice, you decide you wish to cancel the policy please call us on 0330 223 4422, option 3.

Please note cancelling your direct debit does not terminate the contract.

When you sign up you can choose your plan with or without an excess. If you choose to pay an excess it will lower your monthly premium, but you will be required to pay the chosen excess amount each time you make a claim.

Yes, it doesn’t matter how old your boiler is, providing it’s powered by natural gas, has no pre-existing faults and is in good working condition when you sign up.

Providing your boiler is in good working condition, when you sign up, it is very unlikely we would be unable to repair it if it breaks down.  However, if your boiler is under seven years old, and is deemed beyond economical repair, we will cover the cost of replacing it up to a maximum value of £2,500. If your boiler is over seven years old, subject to availability we may be able to offer a discounted fixed price replacement boiler as part of a new 12 month minimum term service agreement or a contribution towards the cost of repair.
