		Gas Service & Repair Not all repairers are the same, unlike some repair services Gallagher Boilers diagnose and repair your fault and do not just replace items until the problem disappears! We do not advocate a replacement appliance unless there is good reason. A fault may lie in the heating system and not the appliance, we fault diagnose and replace failed motorised valves, time clocks, room thermostats, or leaking radiator valves where required. All parts replaced are covered by a 12 month guarantee.

Gas appliances need regular servicing to ensure your safety, that the appliance is operating efficiently and as a requirement of Gas regulations; which recommend a regular schedule of maintenance is carried out. Manufacturers also recommend annual servicing and often forms part of their guarantee. From 2007 it will form part of the home buyers pack to ensure that details of maintenance and repair work are recorded. Indeed benchmark exists now, which requires all new appliances installed are properly maintained. Just as you would service your car and MOT it, gas appliances should also be serviced. Landlords are required to MOT (gas safety check) their appliances and installations BY LAW. It is a recommendation for home owners to also follow this guidance, remember gas appliances are inherently safe, but the safety of your family and home depend on those safety devices working correctly. Don't put family and your safety at risk from carbon monoxide poisoning or dangerous incidents. Ensure you regularly service your gas appliances and most importantly regularly check your safety devices e.g. your smoke / carbon monoxide detectors.
