Gas Hob Removal and Replacement

date

October 2025

ABOUT PROJECT

During a recent safety inspection, this customer’s hob was condemned due to a gas leak. Our team attended promptly, removed the unsafe unit, and installed a new, fully tested hob, ensuring the home is once again safe and compliant.

When a gas appliance is condemned, it means it has been classified as dangerous and must not be used. This can be a stressful situation for any homeowner, but our team was on hand to resolve the problem quickly and safely.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The homeowner had a routine gas safety inspection carried out on their property. During the check, the engineer found that the gas hob was leaking and posed a safety risk. The appliance was immediately condemned, meaning it was disconnected and could not be used until it was replaced.

The customer contacted UK Heat Services Limited for help. They needed a fast response to get their kitchen back up and running safely.

SOLUTIONS

Our Gas Safe registered engineers attended the property promptly to assess the situation and carry out the replacement. The work included:

  • Safely removing the condemned gas hob
  • Capping off the gas supply while work was carried out
  • Installing a new gas hob chosen by the customer
  • Connecting the new appliance to the gas supply
  • Carrying out a full safety test to check for leaks
  • Issuing Gas Safe certification to confirm the installation was compliant

The entire job was completed quickly and professionally, with minimal disruption to the customer’s day.
