Question 1

Can you move a gas cooker point to a new position in my kitchen?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can reroute the gas supply pipework to reposition a cooker point as part of a kitchen redesign, always finishing with a full tightness test on the new connection so the relocated point is confirmed safe before you use it.

Question 2

What types of boiler can you install, combi, system, or conventional?

Accepted Answer

We install all three types: combi boilers (heating water on demand with no separate cylinder), system boilers (working with a hot water cylinder), and conventional heat-only boilers (working with a cylinder and cold water tank). We will recommend the right type for your property during a free survey.

Question 3

What is a gas tightness test and why does it matter?

Accepted Answer

A tightness test checks the entire gas connection for any leaks after the appliance is fitted, using a pressure gauge. It is a mandatory safety check we carry out on every installation, giving you confidence the connection behind your cooker or hob is safe.

Question 4

Will you check my existing gas cooker connection even if I am not replacing the appliance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you are unsure whether an existing connection was fitted correctly, we can inspect it and carry out a tightness test as part of a visit, giving you a clear answer rather than leaving it in doubt.

Question 5

Can you fit a gas hob into an existing kitchen worktop cut-out in Coates?

Accepted Answer

Yes, provided the cut-out matches or can be adapted to the new hob, we can connect it into the existing space. Where the layout is changing as part of a renovation, we work alongside kitchen fitters to get the timing right.

Question 6

Do you provide any documentation after installation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We confirm the installation has passed its safety and tightness test, and if the appliance is in a rental property this forms part of the annual Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) going forward, keeping the rental compliant.

Question 7

What happens if you find a gas leak during the tightness test?

Accepted Answer

We will not leave the appliance connected until the leak is fixed. The tightness test is designed to catch exactly this before you ever use the cooker, and we address any fault found before signing the job off as safe.

Question 8

Do you install dual fuel cookers with a gas hob and electric oven?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We connect the gas side of a dual fuel cooker, whether freestanding or a range cooker, to current safety standards and carry out the same full tightness test as any other gas cooker installation.

Question 9

How can I check if an engineer is Gas Safe registered?

Accepted Answer

Every genuine Gas Safe registered engineer carries a Gas Safe ID card, and you can independently verify any engineer or business on the official Gas Safe Register website using their registration number. Our Register No. is 640113, and we are always happy for customers to check this themselves before any work begins.

Question 10

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Accepted Answer

We operate Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, and do not offer emergency call-outs or weekend work. We do prioritise urgent boiler breakdowns and aim to attend as quickly as possible during our working hours. For a true gas emergency (smell of gas or suspected leak), contact the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 immediately.
