Electrical heater repair in Buckinghamshire

If your electric heater has stopped working or isn’t heating as it should, search for an electric heater repair service in Buckinghamshire with Checkatrade.

From quick repairs to full replacements, checked and qualified electricians can diagnose faults, replace parts, and restore heat safely.

Common types of electric heaters

There are several types of electric heaters found in UK homes, and the repair process can differ depending on the model:

  • Convector heaters: fast and quiet, but prone to thermostat faults
  • Panel heaters: efficient for evenly heating rooms, but may need element replacement
  • Fan heaters: quick to warm, but often experience fan or fuse issues
  • Oil-filled radiators: efficient with thermostats and timers, but sometimes suffer leaks or electrical faults

Why might an electric heater stop working?

There are several reasons why your electric heater may stop working. Common problems include:

  • A broken fan or thermostat
  • Faulty wiring or a blown fuse
  • The heater is turning off repeatedly
  • Burning smells or bad odours
  • Complete breakdown

Basic checks like cleaning filters or confirming the power supply can sometimes solve the issue. However, for wiring or internal faults, it’s important to hire a qualified electrician for safety.

Can electric heaters be repaired?

Many electric heaters can be repaired instead of replaced.

Simple issues such as a broken thermostat, faulty switches, or damaged fans can often be fixed.

For complex electrical faults, a qualified electrician will be needed to repair your electric heater. This is essential to ensure the heater remains safe to use.

Costs for installation and replacement

If your heater cannot be repaired, replacement may be more cost-effective.

The average cost to install an electric wall heater is around £500, including both supply and installation.

Costs vary based on size, brand, and features such as timers or thermostatic controls.
