Spent a few weeks chasing my tail with a few of the ‘bigger’ gas companies who all failed to help with a piping issue. Finally found TM Hughes who were helpful, straight forward, and sorted the issue with minimum fuss. Highly professional, responsive, and reliable. Excellent service!

Welcome to TM Hughes & Son Gas Service Ltd., We offer a connection and disconnection service for Gas cookers, ovens and hobs in Colchester and the surrounding areas.

Gas Cooker Installation By Gas Safe Registered Engineers

Fitting gas appliances is not a DIY job. All gas appliances must be installed by qualified Gas Safe Registered engineers who can fit the appliance safely and issue the relevant certification.

The certificate proves that your new gas cooker, oven or hob is safe and has been fitted legally.

The certificate also proves that your appliance has been fitted by a gas-safe engineer, which is a condition of manufacturers’ warranties and that home insurers insure it.

Gas Cooker Disconnections & Installations are a quick and non-expensive procedure.

We Install All Types Of Gas Cookers

We install all types of gas cookers, which include:

Gas Cookers
LPG Gas Cookers
Gas Range Cookers
Built-In Gas Ovens
Dual Fuel Cookers
Gas Hobs
Built-In Gas Hobs

How Gas Cooker Installations Work

All gas appliances, including cookers, are fitted using a strict procedure that ensures correct fitting and safety.

First, you need to book an engineer for a convenient time and date after your new cooker arrives.
Our engineer will arrive on time. The first step is to remove your old cooker, hob or oven (if present).
Once the area is clear, the engineer will inspect the gas line, gas cooker connection on the gas line and the ‘hot zone’ above the cooker/hob.
If your old cooker connection connected to the gas line is unsuitable for your new cooker, a new one will need fitting.
By law, the ‘hot zone’ (750mm above the hob and 50mm on each side of the hob) must be free from combustible obstructions such as kitchen units, cables, shelves, smoke alarms, wallpaper, etc., anything in the way that could potentially catch fire.
Once the engineer is satisfied that the gas line, connection, and hot zone are okay, your new cooker is unpacked, connected to the gas supply, and put into position.
Your new cooker is tested as per the manufacturer’s instructions. In addition, the connection is tested to ensure there’s no leaking gas.
Finally, our engineer will give you a gas appliance installation certificate. Keep this for your records and use it if you ever need to claim the warranty.

Moving a Gas Cooker

If you’re planning to move your gas cooker to a new location in your kitchen, we can move it for you. We’ll safely disconnect the cooker, reposition the gas supply, and reconnect the appliance, ensuring it meets all gas safety standards.

Disconnecting a Gas Cooker

We also offer safe and professional gas cooker disconnection for those converting to electric. Our engineer will isolate the gas supply, disconnect the appliance, and cap the pipe securely. Before leaving your property, we’ll ensure everything is safe, tidy, and compliant with Gas Safe regulations.
