Question 1

I have just moved into a property in Carry Bridge with a gas fire I have never used, is it safe?

Accepted Answer

It is worth having any gas fire checked before first use if you do not know its service history, particularly in an older Carry Bridge property. We can carry out a full safety check and service so you can use it with confidence.

Question 2

Do older gas fires in Carry Bridge need servicing more often than modern ones?

Accepted Answer

The recommended interval is the same, once a year, regardless of age, though older fires in older Carry Bridge properties are more likely to show wear that needs attention. Annual servicing is what catches that wear early, whatever the age of the fire.

Question 3

Do you offer emergency call-outs for gas fires in Carry Bridge?

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.

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

How much does gas fire servicing cost?

Accepted Answer

We quote a clear, fixed price for a standard gas fire service, confirmed when you book, so there are no surprises. Call us on 07880 240138 with the make and model of your fire and we will give you an honest price over the phone.

Question 6

Are your prices fixed or do you charge by the hour?

Accepted Answer

Wherever possible we provide a fixed, written quote before work begins, covering installations, servicing and most plumbing jobs, so there are no surprises on the day. This is confirmed after a free survey or an honest phone conversation about the job.

Question 7

Do I legally need a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12)?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you are a landlord renting out a property with gas appliances in England and Wales, you are legally required to have a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) issued annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This applies to all gas boilers, gas fires, gas cookers, and any other gas appliances. Failure to comply can result in fines of up to 6,000, pounds prosecution, and even imprisonment. We provide prompt certificates for landlords and letting agents across Colne and the surrounding Lancashire area.

Question 8

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 9

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

Accepted Answer

Open doors and windows to ventilate, turn off the gas at the meter if it is safe to do so, and avoid electrical switches, naked flames or phones inside. Leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999. Contact us afterwards for any repair.

Question 10

How can I check you are Gas Safe registered before booking in Carry Bridge?

Accepted Answer

You can verify us independently on the official Gas Safe Register using our Register No. 640113 before any work begins in Carry Bridge. Every Gas Safe registered engineer carries a unique ID card, and we are always happy for customers to check first.
