A boiler service is not just a quick visual check. It is an important maintenance visit designed to reduce breakdown risk, maintain efficiency and pick up wear before it turns into a bigger problem. Your main Birmingham boiler service page describes this as checking for leaks, corrosion and wear, inspecting and cleaning key components, testing gas pressure and combustion, checking the flue and ventilation, examining safety devices and electrical connections, and recording the results.
