What to check before you hire a plumber
- For any gas boiler or gas appliance work, ask for the installer's RGII registration number and check it on rgii.ie
- Ask whether the call-out fee includes the first hour of labour
- Get the price of parts confirmed before a replacement goes ahead
- For leaks, ask how the plumber will locate the source before opening walls or floors
- Keep photos and the invoice if you may need to make a home insurance claim
What the fix involves and what it costs
Diagnose the fault, replace the failed part and check the boiler is operating safely. Gas boiler work must be done by an RGI.
Typical Dublin price: €120–€450 depending on part. The final price depends on:
- Out-of-hours timing (nights, weekends and bank holidays cost more)
- Access to concealed pipework under floors or behind tiling
- Whether parts are in the van or need to be sourced
- Age of the system, especially lead or old galvanised pipework

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it worth repairing an old boiler?
If the boiler is over 12–15 years old and needs a major part, replacing it is often better value, especially with efficiency gains.
How much does boiler repair cost in Dublin?
Typically €120–€450 depending on part. The exact price depends on access, the extent of the problem and whether parts or materials are needed.
How urgent is boiler repair?
Urgent in winter or if there are vulnerable people in the house. Any smell of gas: leave and call 1800 20 50 50.
Where is my stopcock?
In most Dublin houses the internal stopcock is under the kitchen sink, near where the supply pipe enters the house. There is usually also an external valve at the boundary under a small cover in the footpath. Knowing where both are before an emergency can save a lot of damage.
Does my home insurance cover a burst pipe?
Most home insurance policies cover sudden escape of water damage, but often not the cost of the repair to the pipe itself or gradual leaks. Check your policy wording and take photos before anything is removed.
Could my house still have lead pipes?
Homes built before about 1970 may still have lead supply pipes. Uisce Éireann can advise on the public side; a plumber can check and replace the pipework inside your boundary.
