Looking for a gas engineer usually comes down to one question: which service actually fixes your problem? A boiler that's stopped firing isn't the same job as one that's due its yearly check, and a landlord's certificate isn't the same job as a service.
Below are the six gas services people ask for most, in the order you'd normally need them, with what each covers and what it costs. Pick the one that matches what's happening and it'll link you straight through.
Gas Safe registered (No. 584578), Heat Geek Assured and DBS checked. Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm.
Something's gone wrong now. Strange noises, radiators that never quite warm up, a boiler that keeps losing pressure, or one that's stopped firing altogether.
Catch it early and you're usually looking at a quick fix rather than a full breakdown. £114 covering the first hour, then 15-minute increments. Same-day where we can fit you in during office hours, at £30 extra.
Some of it you can sort yourself — a pressure top-up or a radiator bleed takes five minutes and costs nothing. The repairs page walks through which is which.
If the boiler fires but the problem is elsewhere, such as a pump, a valve, the controls or a leak in the pipework, that's a heating system repair.
Nothing's wrong, and you want to keep it that way. The once-a-year check that catches worn parts and pressure drift before they turn into a breakdown — and what keeps your manufacturer warranty valid.
£114, including system water testing, combustion analysis and a written record. £174 if you want the unvented cylinder done at the same time — it can't be serviced on its own.
Want the cylinder, controls and the rest of the system checked in the same visit? That's heating system maintenance across Rotherham and Barnsley.
You let a property. Every gas appliance must be checked annually and a valid CP12 held — it's the law, not a recommendation.
£114 covering the boiler, gas meter and gas pipework, £42 for each additional appliance. Or £186 for the service and certificate together, which is cheaper than booking separately.
Several properties around the borough can usually be grouped into one day.
It keeps breaking down. Three or more call-outs in a year, rising bills with no change in usage, or a boiler past ten to fifteen years old — that's a system wearing out rather than having a bad day.
We'll tell you honestly whether a repair still makes more sense first. There's more money in fitting a new boiler; there's more repeat business in being straight with you.

There wasn't a boiler there before, or you're changing system type, or moving it to a different part of the house.
Sized on a proper room-by-room heat loss calculation rather than copying the old unit’s rating. Fitted by Gas Safe registered engineers, then registered with the manufacturer — that activates your warranty and notifies Gas Safe, and both certificates come straight to you.
From £2,200.
You'd rather not think about it each year. Four tiers bundling your annual service with priority booking and reduced repair rates, paid monthly rather than as a lump sum.
