Question 1

Do you cover plumbing as well as boilers and heating?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Beyond boilers and heating we handle the everyday plumbing that keeps a home running, including leaking pipes, dripping taps, running or blocked toilets, and unvented hot water cylinder installation and servicing across Higher Hogshead.

Question 2

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 3

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 4

Are you Gas Safe registered?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating is a Gas Safe registered engineer, Register No. 640113, which you can verify independently on the official Gas Safe Register before any work begins in Higher Hogshead.

Question 5

Can you replace an old cylinder with an unvented one?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this is a common upgrade when a vented system struggles with poor pressure. We will assess your incoming mains pressure and flow rate first to confirm an unvented cylinder is suitable for your property before recommending it.

Question 6

Can you help with low water pressure throughout the house?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Low pressure can come from several causes, including the incoming mains supply, old pipework, or a failing cylinder. We investigate the actual cause during a visit rather than guessing, and recommend the right fix.

Question 7

How often should an unvented cylinder be serviced?

Accepted Answer

Unvented cylinders should be serviced annually by a qualified engineer, both for safety, as they operate at higher pressure than vented systems, and to keep any manufacturer warranty valid. We are unvented cylinder qualified and can carry out that annual service.

Question 8

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 9

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 10

Do you put your quotes in writing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every fixed quote is given in writing before any work begins, so you have a clear record of the agreed price for your Higher Hogshead property before we start.
