Long, narrow buildings between the High Street and the shingle
Aldeburgh's older hotels and guest houses are mostly tall Victorian and Edwardian frontages that have been knocked through and extended at the back over the years. The plant is often in a cellar or a rear yard, with long risers to the top floors and large storage cylinders that have to recover quickly after the breakfast rush. When one boiler drops out, upper rooms facing the sea are usually the first to run cold.
Beyond the hotels, the town's restaurants and fish-and-chip kitchens, the cinema, the community hospital, the church halls and the golf club all run commercial gas or LPG plant. Snape Maltings a few miles inland and the holiday cottages and clubhouse buildings around the Meare at Thorpeness add more seasonal demand. Salt-laden wind attacks flue terminals and outside pipework, and plant that is turned down over winter often shows its faults on the first cold, full weekend of spring.
Reaching IP15 from Clare and where to send the van
There is no railway to Aldeburgh any more, so it is a road job: roughly 55 miles from Clare CO10 8NN via Sudbury, Hadleigh and Ipswich, then up the A12 and along the A1094. Allow about 1 hour 20 minutes in normal traffic. The desk confirms an engineer and an honest arrival window before anyone sets off.
The High Street is narrow and parking is tight in season, so tell us whether there is a rear lane, a service yard or a hotel car park the van can use. The Moot Hall, the lifeboat station and the Scallop sculpture on the beach are the landmarks most people give.
Hotel boiler repair Aldeburgh — what the duty manager should tell us
Give the hotel or venue name and IP15 postcode, how many rooms or covers are affected, whether you have lost heating, hot water or both, the fuel (mains gas or LPG), the boiler or water heater make and any fault code on the display. If the plant has only just been brought back from a winter setback, tell us how long it was off.
Gas appliance work is carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers only (Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998). If anyone smells gas, get people out of the area, do not touch electrical switches and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 first.
