Local, Gas Safe cooker and hob installation in Ilford
Connecting a gas cooker or hob is legally classed as gas work, which means under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations it can only be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer — not by the retailer’s delivery team, and not as a DIY job. A cooker or hob that’s fitted incorrectly can leak gas, burn unevenly or create a carbon monoxide risk, and a poor DIY connection can invalidate your home insurance. Our nearby Dagenham base means we can usually get to you quickly across IG1–IG3. Gas Safe registration 587401.

What's included in a Gas First installation
Most cooker and hob installations are a same-day job, often finished within an hour or so of arrival. We disconnect and remove your old appliance, position and connect the new cooker or hob, fit or check the isolation valve and bayonet fitting, and connect via a certified flexible hose or rigid pipework depending on the setup. We then carry out a full gas soundness test, check the burners, grill and oven ignite and run correctly, and check ventilation is adequate. If your existing gas point needs work to bring it up to standard, we’ll tell you before we start and price it clearly — never a surprise afterwards.

Cookers, hobs and ovens — all major brands
We fit freestanding cookers, built-under and built-in ovens, separate gas hobs and larger range-style cookers, and we work with all the major makes — AEG, Beko, Bosch, NEFF, Hotpoint, Indesit, Stoves and Smeg among them. Swapping a worn-out hob or cooker for a new one is usually quick and simple, since the gas connection point is already there. If you’re a landlord, remember a gas cooker or hob counts as an appliance on the property’s annual landlord gas safety certificate (CP12), so we can fit the appliance and carry out the certificate in one visit.

A recent gas hob installation in Ilford
A homeowner in Ilford wanted to replace an old Beko gas hob that was showing its age and wear with a new AEG hob. The existing gas connection was already in place, so it was a straightforward like-for-like swap: we disconnected and removed the old Beko hob, fitted and connected the new AEG hob, carried out a full gas soundness test, and checked every burner was igniting cleanly and holding its flame before we left. A quick, safe upgrade that gave the kitchen a fresh, reliable hob.
