Highlights
"Richard did a gas safety check and visual inspection on a flat I am hoping to buy and from the start he was professional and patient, explaining exactly what he would do and the pricing structure. His response was swift and on completion of the job he provided me with thorough and extremely helpful written and oral reports. A definite recommendation."
"Really good service by Richard. Came within a good time frame, was professional throughout, keeping me updated on the job, and explained straight away a couple of unavoidable costs. I was pleasantly suprised with the total cost, having previously been charged alot more by other companies."
"I can’t recommend Richard enough. From the start, his communication was excellent; he even used WhatsApp to do a pre-visit diagnosis, which help me understand the job. Once he arrived, his knowledge was clearly top-tier. He didn't just tell me it was broken; he walked me through exactly what the problem was and gave me a clear breakdown of my options so I could make an informed decision. He was thorough with his safety checks to ensure everything was running perfectly before he left. Professional, honest, and reliable—he’s officially my go-to engineer from now on."

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.
