Gas cooker & hob installation in London
Connecting a gas cooker or hob is gas work, and any business or self-employed engineer doing it must be Gas Safe registered. The job includes the flexible connection, stability bracket and tightness test that DIY installs routinely miss.
If you smell gas, or a carbon monoxide alarm sounds: don't smoke, light a flame or touch light switches, open the doors and windows, turn the gas off at the meter if you can reach it safely and it isn't in a cellar or basement, get everyone out, and call the National Gas Emergency Service free on 0800 111 999 before anything else — before calling us.

When to call
Book before your appliance is delivered — retailers deliver but most won't connect gas, and a capped-off wait is avoidable with one day's planning. If you smell gas, or a carbon monoxide alarm sounds: don't smoke, light a flame or touch light switches, open the doors and windows, turn the gas off at the meter if you can reach it safely and it isn't in a cellar or basement, get everyone out, and call the National Gas Emergency Service free on 0800 111 999 before anything else — before calling us.
