Customers dont understand co ratios and gas rates you can do all the safety check in the world but they wont understsnd or appreciate it. So I do all thats needed plus run a vaccum over it then once the case is on give it a quick squirt of wd40 then rub it off with your rag.
You know the boiler is spot on and running as it should.
Custard hesrd the hoover and can smell the wd so thinks youve gone to town on it.

Also I dip all the screws I remove in gas tap/graphite grease.
Long phillips and an inspection mirror.
2x 25mm psint brushes one with the handle cut of to get in tight spots

sticky labels with your name to put on the cover

Rag, WD40 and invoicing pad.

also

Set of, spanners, screw drivers, allen keys, torx wrenches, pump pliers, plier, side cutters, various flue brushes, paint brushes, cleaning blades, knife, FGA, expansion vessel pump, hoover, multimeter, clamp meter, solenoid tester, and my mind has gone blank.

What spares to carry is another question altogether.
