A pub kitchen, a farm shop and a church half a mile apart
Wickham St Paul is a small Braintree-district parish of under 300 people, about four miles south-west of Sudbury and five miles north of Halstead, its post town. Houses are set around a large open green with a cricket pitch and ponds, and the Victory Inn faces it. Pubs of this size usually run one boiler for radiators and either a cylinder or a separate water heater for the kitchen and toilets, and the hot water side is what fails first when service is busy.
The other commercial buildings are just as typical of the area. A large farm shop and pick-your-own business, which includes the village grocery and a part-time post office, has a shop floor, chillers and staff rooms that need heat in winter. All Saints church stands on Church Road half a mile from the green, with a Tudor brick tower and long, cold periods between services. With no mains gas in most of the parish, expect oil or LPG, and on the pub side a burner that has locked out on a blocked nozzle or a sooted photocell.
About ten miles from Clare, past Belchamp Walter
From Clare CO10 8NN, Wickham St Paul is roughly ten miles by road through the Belchamps and Gestingthorpe, usually 20 minutes or so. The desk confirms an engineer and an arrival window before dispatch, and tells you if traffic on the lanes will push that back.
For the pub, tell us whether the engineer should come to the front door on The Green or round the back to the kitchen, and when food service starts. For the farm shop, say which building the boiler serves and whether the shop will be open while we work. For the church, say who has the vestry key and where the boiler house or cupboard is.
Village pub boiler repair Wickham St Paul — what to tell the desk
Say whether you have lost heating, hot water or both, which appliance it is (boiler, cylinder or a separate water heater), the make and any lockout light or code, and the fuel. For oil or LPG, check the tank gauge first and note when the last delivery came. Cellar cooling and beer lines are a separate trade, so mention them only if they are on the same electrical fault.
Oil-fired plant is handled by OFTEC trained engineers. 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.
