Question 1

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 2

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 3

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 4

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 5

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 6

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.

Question 7

How long does it take to install a gas cooker or hob?

Accepted Answer

A straightforward like-for-like installation typically takes around 30 to 60 minutes, including the safety tightness test. If new pipework is needed, this can take longer, which we will confirm before starting rather than surprising you on the day.

Question 8

Can I fit my own gas cooker or hob in Holden Vale?

Accepted Answer

No. By law, any gas appliance including cookers and hobs must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This is both a legal requirement and a genuine safety matter, since an incorrectly connected gas appliance can be dangerous. We cover Holden Vale and the wider Lancashire area.

Question 9

What should I do if I smell gas in my home?

Accepted Answer

If you smell gas or suspect a leak, you should immediately open doors and windows to ventilate the area, turn off the gas supply at the meter (if safe to do so), avoid using any electrical switches, naked flames, or phones inside the property, leave the property, and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 immediately. Once the emergency has been handled, contact us during working hours for any follow-up repair work.

Question 10

Do you offer emergency call-outs for cooker installation in Holden Vale?

Accepted Answer

No, we do not offer emergency call-outs or weekend work. We operate Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm. If you ever smell gas, treat it as an emergency and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 immediately, then contact us for any repair.
