Reply within the hour. 1 hr Typical response £0 Call-out fee 38+ yrs Gas experience 24/7 Line answered 4.9★ 156 Google reviews ## What emergency call-outs actually covers ### What it is Rapid response to gas and heating emergencies: total loss of heating or hot water, leaks, boiler lockouts, suspected gas smells, frozen condensates and pressure loss faults — attended by a Gas Safe registered engineer with 38+ years' experience. ### Who it's for Homeowners, tenants (with landlord authorisation), landlords, letting agents and small businesses across Watford and Hertfordshire. ### When you need it As soon as it happens — especially with suspected gas leaks, no hot water in a rented property, or heating loss in cold weather with vulnerable occupants. ### Why professional help matters Emergencies are where poor service is most expensive. The wrong engineer at 10pm can guess, over-charge, fit the wrong part and be back next week. The right engineer diagnoses first time and gets you working. ## The cost of leaving it Delaying an emergency almost never makes it cheaper. Waiting until Monday is how a £180 repair becomes a £600 one. ### What can go wrong - A gas smell is a life-safety issue — the National Gas Emergency Service is 0800 111 999. Don't wait. - A boiler leaking internally will damage the pump, PCB and electronics — every hour it's left on adds to the bill. - In winter, a frozen condensate that keeps re-freezing can crack the trap and require boiler dismantling to fix. - For landlords, no hot water in a rented property can breach repair obligations within 24 hours. ### Common mistakes we see - Repeatedly repressurising a leaking system until the PRV finally fails. - Turning the boiler off at the fuse to 'reset' repeatedly instead of getting the fault code read. - Waiting for the weekend to end when a same-day fix would have been cheaper and warmer. - Letting a non-Gas Safe handyman investigate a gas fault. ## Our process A clear, repeatable system — the same on every job, whether you're a homeowner or a landlord with a portfolio. 1. 01 ### Call Matt directly Straight through — no call centre, no scripts. Symptoms, boiler make and model, address, realistic ETA. 2. 02 ### Safety-first triage If it's a suspected gas leak we'll route you to 0800 111 999 first. Otherwise we head to you. 3. 03 ### On-site diagnosis Full fault-find using manufacturer diagnostics and combustion analyser. No guesswork, no parts changed 'to see'. 4. 04 ### Fixed price to fix Clear written price for the repair, agreed before any work starts. 5. 05 ### Fix, test, guarantee Repair completed where possible on the same visit. 12-month workmanship guarantee. ## What you get ### Real person answers Matt takes the call personally wherever possible — including evenings and weekends. ### No call-out fee You pay for the fix, not for us to turn up. ### One-hour typical response Across our service area, typical arrival is within the hour. ### Gas Safe & ex-British Gas trained 38+ years of emergency diagnostics. Gas Safe registration 212325. ### Priced up front Fixed written price agreed before work starts wherever the fault allows it. ### Backed by 12-month guarantee All workmanship guaranteed for a year, in writing. ## In detail 'Emergency' means different things. Here's what we treat as urgent, and what we recommend if you're in a genuinely dangerous situation. ### If you smell gas — call 0800 111 999 first The National Gas Emergency Service is free, 24/7 and will make the property safe. Open windows, turn the gas off at the meter if safe to do so, don't use electrical switches, and leave the property. Once the gas network has made the property safe we can attend to identify and repair the source. ### No heating or hot water The most common winter emergency. Usual causes are a frozen condensate (very common in cold snaps), a stuck diverter valve, a failed pump, low system pressure or a lockout with an error code. Most are same-visit fixes. ### Boiler leaks and pressure loss A leak inside the boiler needs attention urgently — water and electronics don't mix. If pressure keeps dropping and you're topping the filling loop up daily, there is a leak somewhere. We isolate, diagnose and repair. ### Landlord emergencies For landlords and letting agents, we can attend, diagnose and invoice directly, and coordinate access with tenants. Invoices are itemised and suitable for management-company records. ### Frozen condensate pipes In cold snaps, condensate pipes routed externally can freeze and shut the boiler down. We can thaw safely, get you working again and (where practical) re-route or insulate the pipe to prevent it happening again. ## Frequently asked questions Do you charge a call-out fee for emergencies?
