Gas cooking installations
Gas appliance installations starting from £120
Straight swaps to an existing gas point are £120. If your new cooker or hob requires minor copper pipework (up to 1m), it is £150. More extensive gas supply runs are quoted clearly before work starts.
What's included
Supplied by you, fitted by us — connected, tested and checked by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
Gas cookers and hobs should only be installed or altered by a Gas Safe registered engineer with the right appliance category.
We check the connection method is right for your appliance and your existing gas point.
Every installation includes tightness testing and safe operation checks before we leave.
We check the installation position against the appliance instructions.
Tell us if the old appliance needs disconnecting and we'll handle it on the visit.
We provide clear records and an invoice for the work completed.
Before we arrive
Checking your appliance dimensions, cooker hood clearance (hot zone), and having the right gas supply point ready ensures we can complete the installation in a single visit.
Have the manufacturer handbook or model number handy so we can verify connection type, heat output, and flue requirements.
Ensure the cooker bay, emergency shut-off valve, and your gas meter are clear and accessible for mandatory soundness testing.
For built-in gas hobs, check that the worktop opening dimensions match your new appliance before the engineer arrives.
Ensure there are no combustible materials, sockets, or wallpaper directly behind the hob within the required safety clearance zone.
If your gas cooker or hob features automatic spark ignition or an oven light, ensure a standard 13A socket or spur is nearby.
Let us know in advance if your old cooker or hob needs safe disconnection, gas capping, and removal from the bay.
How it works
Send us the make, model, and a quick photo of your existing gas bayonet or isolation valve so we can confirm fitting requirements in advance.
We confirm our fixed installation price (£120 straight swap or £150 with up to 1m pipework) before booking your narrow convenient AM/PM slot with arrival notice.
We connect the appliance with a new micropoint hose or rigid copper, run a full gas tightness test, check burner flames, and issue your Gas Safe compliance certificate on the spot.
Gas cookers and hobs should only be installed or altered by an engineer with the correct domestic gas cooking qualification. Our registration number is 657972.
Why choose us
Like-for-like replacements are one of our most common jobs. We safely disconnect the old appliance, connect the new one, carry out checks and make sure it is working correctly.
What’s covered
A landlord gas safety certificate is separate from installation, but it can be arranged for rented properties if required.
