Question 1

How long does a boiler installation typically take?

Accepted Answer

A straightforward like-for-like combi boiler swap usually takes one working day. Converting from a conventional or system boiler to a combi, or fitting a new unvented cylinder alongside the installation, can take one to two days depending on the pipework involved. We confirm the expected timescale in your written quote.

Question 2

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 3

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 4

Do landlords in Milnshaw need a new safety check every time a gas cooker is installed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every installation is followed by a safety and tightness test, and for a rented property in Milnshaw this feeds into the annual Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12), keeping the tenancy compliant going forward.

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

What areas do you cover from Colne?

Accepted Answer

We are based in Colne (BB8) and cover Burnley and the Pendle area, plus surrounding towns and villages within around 10 miles, including Trawden, Barnoldswick, Nelson, Barrowford, Foulridge and Skipton. If you are not sure whether we cover your area, give us a call and we will let you know.

Question 7

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 8

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.

Question 9

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 10

Can I fit my own gas cooker or hob in Milnshaw?

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 Milnshaw and the wider Lancashire area.
