Annual servicing of all gas appliances is very important.

Incorrectly fitted, badly repaired or poorly maintained gas appliances are a major cause of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. They can also lead to gas leaks and explosions. Tragically, on average 25 people a year die from CO poisoning, and many more suffer health problems from CO exposure directly related to gas. In addition, some 40 people a year are killed or injured in gas explosions. (Source: HSE Gas Safety Statistics)
Worryingly, the research for Gas Safe Register found that regular servicing of gas appliances is not a priority in far too many households. Almost a fifth (19.05%) of households with a gas boiler had not had it serviced for at least three years and an alarming 13% of households had never had their boiler serviced or would only do so if there was a problem.

By law, from 1 April, only Gas Safe registered engineers should be employed to carry out work on gas installations or appliances, CORGI gas registration will not be valid. Registered engineers will be identified with the new yellow Gas Safe Register logo, and every engineer will carry a Gas Safe Register ID card with their own unique licence number.
Before you have any gas work done in your home, make sure you check the ID card.

My charges for an annual service are £39.00 for the first appliance and £20 for the second appliance in the same property. A discount will be awarded to returning customers if the appliance is serviced before the anniversary of your last service. Reminder cards will be sent out 11 months after your last service.
