Highlights

"We are delighted with our new gas stove. It looks beautiful. We had excellent service throughout and the two guys who fitted the stove, which included laying a gas pipe under the patio, were thoroughly professional and meticulous. Would not hesitate to recommend this company."

"From the first moment I visited the showroom I received nothing but friendly and excellent advice and service from Chris. He wasn't at all pushy which is great....nothing was too much trouble . He came to visit my home on the arranged date and time, again nothing was too much trouble. The fitter arrived on time and even though he encountered problems we hadn't envisaged he just carried on. The overall attention and care given was second to none. I would recommend this company to family and friends without a second thought. Carol kept me informed all the time about fitting dates. Excellent"

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.
