Upfront cost — no obligation Connecting a gas cooker or hob is gas work — and by law it must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer. A poorly connected cooker risks gas leaks and carbon monoxide, so it’s not a job for a general handyman. Gas First installs gas cookers and hobs across East London and Essex, connecting your appliance correctly, testing for tightness, and confirming it’s safe to use before we leave.

Beyond the legal point, a correct installation protects your household: the connection must be sound, the appliance correctly positioned with adequate ventilation, and the whole thing tested.
