Question 1

How much can I save by upgrading to a new boiler?

Accepted Answer

Upgrading from an old, inefficient boiler to a modern A-rated condensing boiler can save you hundreds of pounds a year on your energy bills, depending on your current boiler's age and efficiency. We will give you an honest estimate of the likely savings for your specific property during a free survey, rather than a generic figure.

Question 2

How often should I have my boiler serviced?

Accepted Answer

We strongly recommend having your boiler serviced annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Regular servicing ensures your boiler operates safely and efficiently, helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, keeps your manufacturer's warranty valid, and can extend the lifespan of your boiler by several years. An annual service typically takes around 30-45 minutes and includes safety checks, efficiency testing and a visual inspection of key components.

Question 3

What should I do if I smell gas near my cooker?

Accepted Answer

Turn off the gas supply at the meter if safe to do so, ventilate the room by opening windows and doors, and avoid naked flames or electrical switches. Call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 if you suspect a leak, then contact us afterwards during working hours for any repair.

Question 4

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 5

Is it actually illegal to fit my own gas hob?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Fitting your own gas appliance is against the law, not just inadvisable. Every gas cooker or hob installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and our Register No. 640113 can be verified independently before work begins.

Question 6

Can you install a range cooker in Forest Holme?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Alongside freestanding gas cookers and built-in hobs, we install range cookers as well, connecting each appliance safely and finishing with a full gas tightness test regardless of size or configuration.

Question 7

Is a flexible gas hose safe for connecting a cooker?

Accepted Answer

A certified flexible connector, correctly rated and fitted by a Gas Safe registered engineer, is a standard and safe way to connect many cookers. We use the appropriate connection method for your specific appliance and kitchen layout.

Question 8

How do I book a gas cooker or hob installation in Forest Holme?

Accepted Answer

Call 07880 240138 with the make and model of your appliance and we will confirm a fixed price and arrange a working-hours visit. Booking ahead of a kitchen renovation or appliance delivery in Forest Holme helps us plan the visit around your schedule.

Question 9

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 10

Do you fit both freestanding cookers and built-in hobs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We install freestanding gas cookers, built-in gas hobs and range cookers, connecting them safely and testing thoroughly regardless of the appliance type. Tell us the make and model and we will confirm the right connection method.
