Mark T. / Wolverhampton

"We had a persistent damp patch that another plumber couldn't find the source of. Fact Services came out to us in Dudley, used their thermal imaging camera, and pinpointed the hidden leak under the floorboards in minutes. Saved us from ripping up the whole living room floor. Outstanding 24/7 service!"

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our Gas Safe registered cooker and hob installation services in Wolverhampton & West Midlands and the West Midlands.

Do I need a Gas Safe engineer to install a gas hob?

+

Yes. In the UK, it is a legal requirement for any gas appliance to be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This makes sure the connection is leak-free and that the appliance is safe to use. Doing it yourself or using an unregistered person can be dangerous and may invalidate your home insurance.

How long does a gas cooker installation take?

+

Most standard installations take between one and two hours. This includes the time needed to disconnect your old appliance, check the pipework, fit the new cooker, and carry out all the necessary safety tests. If the gas pipe needs to be moved or upgraded, it may take a little longer.

What is a cooker safety certificate?

+

A gas safety certificate (or appliance commissioning record) is a document provided by our engineer after the installation is complete. It proves that the appliance was installed correctly and met all safety standards at the time of fitting. You should keep this in a safe place for your records.

Can you install a gas hob if there is currently an electric one?

+

Yes, but this requires running a new gas pipe from your meter or nearest gas point to the kitchen. Our engineers can assess your home’s layout and provide a quote for the pipework needed to switch from electric to gas cooking.

Do you install LPG cookers in caravans or mobile homes?

+

Yes, Fact Services is qualified to work with LPG systems. We can install and test gas cookers and hobs in caravans, mobile catering units, and homes that are not connected to the main gas grid.
