How we handle emergency boiler repairs in Newcastle

01

If you can smell gas

A suspected gas escape is not a boiler repair - it is an emergency. Turn off the gas supply at the meter if it is safe to do so, do not operate any electrical switches, do not use naked flames, open doors and windows, leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 straight away. Do not use your mobile phone inside the property.

02

Keeping warm and safe while you wait

If you have no heating, close internal doors, keep curtains drawn and use extra layers and blankets. Use electric heaters only if they are in good condition and never leave them unattended. Do not use gas hobs, patio heaters or barbecues to heat a room.

What to do before you call

  • Note the make, model and any error code on the display
  • Check whether other gas appliances are working
  • Check the boiler pressure gauge and note the reading
  • Check the fuse or circuit breaker for the boiler and the timer settings
  • If water is leaking, place a container underneath and turn off the water supply to the boiler if you can do so safely
  • Try one reset only - repeated resets can make a fault harder to diagnose

Situations that need the gas emergency service, not us

  • You can smell gas anywhere in or around the property
  • Your carbon monoxide alarm is sounding
  • There is a suspected gas escape from a meter or supply pipe
  • Anyone in the property feels unwell with headaches, dizziness or nausea that eases when they leave

We had no heating and Masoud was able to come out and see us the next day. He was friendly, knowledgeable and very reasonable. Would recommend to anyone and will be using him in future! Thanks Masoud!

Masoud was punctual, efficient and super competitively priced. He was so responsive and communicative from the moment we reached out, and his brilliant service only continued when he arrived! Knowledgable and friendly, he resolved the issue in half an hour and explained it to me in simple terms. He was so patient fielding questions, too. And he reassured me he was available if I had anymore problems. I'll 100% be using this company again. I can't recommend them highly enough! Faultless service.

Masoud did our annual boiler and unvented water tank service and I can't recommend him enough. It was so easy to book with him, just a quick couple of messages over WhatsApp and the appointment was confirmed. He arrived when he said he would and was very friendly and helpful. He was thorough, showing me what he had done and giving me some advice. I greatly appreciated how thorough and efficient he was, as well as just being a very nice man. It was also great value for money. I highly recommend him and we will be using his services again.
