Warm Homes Healthy People

Servicing your boiler regularly is important to keep it in top condition for the colder months, especially for those who are elderly, vulnerable or living with young children.

As part of Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council's Warm Homes Healthy People scheme, we are offering free boiler servicing to eligible residents across the Borough for 3 months from 1 July 2024 to 30 September 2024.  

This scheme is for boiler servicing only.

The scheme is only available to homeowners with gas central heating systems, living in the borough of Stockton-on-Tees. 

For air source heat pump or electric storage heater repairs you should contact the original installer or manufacturer for assistance.

You may be eligible for a boiler service if you are the homeowner and claiming a means-tested benefit:
