Highlights
"Great experience. Friendly, practical and realistic advice from the outset. Honest approach to charging for labour and parts. Quick to propose a solution in line with the initial request. Thoughtful and considerate when working in the property and provided plenty of explanation while carrying out the work. Very pleased with the outcome and would happily appoint again."
"We discovered a leak under our kitchen counter from one of the pipes. Emergency works were arranged promptly and F & S arrived at agreed date and time and quickly diagnosed the issue. Works were completed to a high standard and the pipe was replaced and included an isolator valve. Would thoroughly recommend and would definitely use again if needed. Many thanks"
"Contacted me quickly. Worked around timings for me. Polite and pleasant via message and in person. Arrived on time. Sorted the issues I had with no problems. Wore shoe covers so didnt walk dirt through the house. Thank you"

Smart checks
Before you hire a gas engineer
By law, anyone working on your gas appliances must be on the Gas Safe Register — ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the licence number at gassaferegister.co.uk before they start.
Never let an unregistered person touch your gas: unsafe gas work risks carbon monoxide poisoning, fire and explosion, and is a criminal offence.
For a boiler or appliance install, get the work and price in writing and keep the Gas Safe / Building Regulations certificate they are required to give you.
Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time — not only the quality of the work.
