I fix what's actually broken
Before I recommend a part, I diagnose the fault. You shouldn't be paying for components that weren't causing the problem.
Local and independent
I'm George — a Gas Safe registered engineer with 25+ years on the tools, now based in South Molton. I look after gas boilers, unvented cylinders and heating controls across North Devon. I don't install new boilers; I keep existing ones running properly.

Once we've fixed a time for me to come out, I'm glad to run through my Gas Safe registration and insurance.
How I work
I'm George. I've been working on gas boilers and heating systems for more than 25 years — mostly in Kent, where I ran Thames Boilers. I moved to North Devon and set up South Molton Boilers to do the same kind of work locally: the same servicing and repair work, close to home, for homeowners and landlords who want an engineer they can trust.
I'm Gas Safe registered, G3 qualified for unvented hot water cylinders, and carry £2 million public liability insurance. Any part I supply and fit is guaranteed for one year.
My approach is simple: find out what's actually wrong before recommending anything, explain what I've found and what your options are, and tell you if repair isn't the right answer. I don't do installations, so I've no reason to push you towards a replacement you don't need.
Before I recommend a part, I diagnose the fault. You shouldn't be paying for components that weren't causing the problem.
I'll explain what I found, what it means, and what the options are — without using jargon to make the job sound more complicated than it is.
My work is servicing, repairs, unvented cylinders and heating controls on existing systems. If yours needs replacing, I'll point you to an installer — I don't do that side myself, so it's never a sales pitch.
Most things are quicker to sort out with a call. You can reach me on 01769 610371, Mon-Fri 9am-5pm.
New to South Molton, not new to boilers
I've recently moved to North Devon, so I don't have South Molton reviews yet. Rather than fabricate local credentials I haven't earned, I show feedback from my previous Kent customers — clearly labelled as Thames Boilers reviews, not South Molton ones. I'd rather earn your trust that way than borrow someone else's stars.
These reviews are from Thames Boilers — George's previous Kent business — shown while South Molton Boilers builds its own local review profile. They are not presented as South Molton customer reviews.
