How Our Mobile Catering LPG Service Works

When you book Fact Services for your mobile catering needs, you receive a rigorous, step-by-step diagnostic and installation process designed to guarantee safety and performance. Our approach is thorough, transparent, and tailored to the unique environments of mobile kitchens.Comprehensive Visual Inspection: We begin by examining all gas pipework, hoses, regulators, and catering appliances within your van or trailer to identify any immediate signs of wear, damage, or poor fitting.Advanced Leak Detection: Utilising industry-leading equipment, our engineers perform precise leak detection tests across your entire LPG system, ensuring absolute gas tightness before appliances are fired up.Ventilation and Flue Checks: Mobile environments require exceptional airflow. We analyse your extraction and ventilation systems to ensure they safely remove carbon monoxide and combustion gases from the confined workspace.Pressure and Performance Testing: We test the operating pressure of your gas system to confirm that all hobs, fryers, and commercial boilers are receiving the correct fuel flow for maximum efficiency.Certification Issuance: Once your system passes our rigorous safety checks, we will issue a formal CP44 certificate, providing you with the legal documentation required to operate your catering van gas system safely.

Why Choose Fact Services for Mobile Catering LPG & CP42 Certificates?

The Benefits of Professional LPG Services

Investing in professional mobile catering LPG servicing is not just a regulatory hurdle; it is a vital step in protecting and enhancing your business operations. A professionally maintained system dramatically reduces the risk of unexpected breakdowns, ensuring you never miss out on peak trading hours at festivals, markets, or roadside pitches.Regular servicing by a qualified Gas Safe engineer also improves the energy efficiency of your catering equipment. Perfectly calibrated burners and well-maintained regulators use less LPG, meaning lower running costs and fewer gas bottle changes. Furthermore, expert catering equipment installation guarantees that your fryers, ovens, and hobs function at optimal temperatures, resulting in better food quality and faster service times.Most importantly, professional LPG trailer repair and maintenance safeguard human life. LPG is highly flammable, and in a confined mobile kitchen, even a minor leak can be disastrous. By choosing Fact Services, you are actively protecting your staff, your customers, and your valuable business assets.

Local Compliance and Safety Standards

Operating a mobile catering business in the UK requires strict adherence to legal safety frameworks. At Fact Services, we ensure your business remains fully compliant with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, as well as the specific requirements set out under UK Building Regulations where applicable.Local authorities, including Sandwell Council, typically require street trading vendors to provide a valid CP44 certificate before issuing or renewing a trading licence. Our engineers are highly experienced in conducting these specific mobile catering safety checks. We ensure your gas interlock systems, pipework, and ventilation all meet the exacting standards required by local environmental health officers.Do not risk hefty fines or the closure of your business due to non-compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a CP44 certificate and do I need one?A CP44 certificate is a specific gas safety record designed for mobile catering vehicles, including food trucks, trailers, and converted horseboxes. If you use LPG to power your catering equipment, you are legally required to hold a valid CP44 certificate to prove your setup is safe. Local councils and event organisers will almost always ask to see this before allowing you to trade.How often should I service my catering van gas equipment?By law, you must have your commercial gas equipment and LPG systems inspected and certified by a Gas Safe engineer at least once every 12 months. However, if your mobile kitchen is heavily used or travels extensively over rough roads, we highly recommend scheduling a mid-year check-up to ensure vibrations have not loosened any vital pipework or connections.Do you offer emergency LPG trailer repair in Blackheath?Yes, we understand that a gas fault can immediately shut down your business. We offer rapid-response emergency call-outs for suspected gas leaks, regulator failures, and appliance breakdowns across Blackheath and the wider Sandwell area. If you smell gas or suspect a fault, turn off your supply immediately and call us on 01902 953454.

What Our Clients Say About Fact Services

"Called Fact Services when our Worcester boiler broke down in the middle of the night. The Gas Safe engineer arrived within the hour, diagnosed the fault immediately, and had our heating back on before morning. Genuine, professional, and very fairly priced. Highly recommend them!"

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!"

Sarah J. / Dudley

"Fact Services installed a brand new gas interlock system and issued a CP42 safety certificate for our restaurant kitchen. Top-class commercial gas engineers—they knew exactly what the building controls required and worked around our opening hours to minimize disruption. Great honest tradesmen."

FAQ

Answers to common questions about our mobile catering LPG and CP42 gas safety services in Wolverhampton & West Midlands

Why Choose Fact Services for Your Catering Gas?

+

Choosing the right engineer is vital for your business. Fact Services stands out because we combine technical skill with a genuine understanding of the catering trade.

  • Fully Qualified: We are Gas Safe Registered (Registration No: 149167) with specific qualifications for LPG and commercial catering.
  • Experienced Engineers: We have years of experience working with mobile burger vans, gin bars, and high-end mobile kitchens.

  • Local Experts: As a Wolverhampton-based business, we take pride in supporting other local traders and small businesses.
  • Trusted Manufacturers: We work with and install equipment from all major catering brands, ensuring high-quality parts are always used.

How often does my mobile catering van need a gas safety check?

+

Under UK law, you must have your commercial gas equipment inspected at least once every 12 months. This allows you to obtain the CP42 certificate required by local councils, event organisers, and insurance providers. If you move your van frequently, we recommend more regular visual checks on your hoses and connections.

Can I use a domestic gas engineer for my burger van?

+

No. Domestic gas engineers are not usually qualified to work on commercial catering equipment or LPG systems in mobile units. You must use an engineer who has the specific "Commercial Catering" and "LPG" categories listed on the back of their Gas Safe ID card. Fact Services holds all the necessary qualifications for this work.

Do you install gas equipment in new trailer conversions?

+

Yes, we do. We can help you design the gas layout for a new conversion, making sure the pipework is correctly sized and the ventilation meets current safety standards. We then install the appliances and provide the initial certification you need to start trading.
