Gas Safety Checks

Don’t forget to keep your appliances in check! Protect yourself, employees and the building.

Covering West Sussex, East Sussex, Hampshire, Surrey, London, Kent and Dorset we are here to support you with gas safety checks.

Any gas appliance in your home can produce carbon monoxide (CO), a highly poisonous gas which occurs when natural gas or liquid petroleum gas (LPG) doesn’t burn as it should. This could be the result of a gas appliance being improperly fitted, repaired, or maintained, or when vents have become blocked. This is why we believe it’s so important to have all of your gas appliances checked once a year by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

With our in-house Gas Safe Registered engineers, you can ensure the safety of the service is carried out to your expectation and the quality standard.

How Do I Know if I Need My Gas Checked?

Always lookout for the warning signs. If you spot any of the signs you want to get your gas appliances looked at straight away to avoid any risks.

• Your appliance isn’t working properly
• It produces a floppy yellow flame rather than a crisp blue one
• Black/brown marks on or around the appliance
• If a boiler look for if the boiler pilot light keeps going out
• Increased condensation inside the windows

So, these are signs to look out for, however, it’s not to say that you should wait for the signs to appear before booking an annual service or general check.

What if Your Gas Appliance is Condemned?

If your appliance is condemned as unsafe due to the result of the gas safety check for service our Gas Safe Registered engineers will advise and explain why and put a record in writing. From this, this it will mean that appliance must not be used and needs to be replaced urgently.

If the appliance is your boiler and needs replacing, then our engineers can advise on a cost for this through our installation service. Our fully gas safe registered engineers can fit a replacement boiler for you, whilst taking away the old boiler. We can even fit a carbon monoxide detector.
