    We pay £39 each and we live in an expensive area.

    Update,
    Everything went fine, work completed as expected, no problems with gas but I knew that anyway. slightly rushed but professional independent who did the epc and gas certificate in one go at a price I couldnt find anywhere else.

    Would recommend.

    Hi Karen,
    I thought that I should issue a personal thank you to you and to the gentleman who I used for my gas safety certificate and landlords energy performace certificate.

    I called the company he came out the next day. I wasn't at the property at the time and I asked if the keys could be collected from the estate agents. They were without issue and I have since been issued with an invoice to pay.

    I will use this gentleman again when I sell my current property and need a EPC. It was value for money I must say.

    Sorry if this sounds like a testimonial.

    Thanks Karen and thanks Mr AJ.

    (he told me that he has seen this website)

    sorry I cant post links so had to edit your post a little, sorry

    Hi,
    Anyone in Mid Cornwall do a reasonable quote please ?

    I have 2 apartments that have a gas boiler, (& poss a gas fire in same room), in Bodmin.

    Everything else is lectric.

    [maybe worth a trip for someone who hasn't been to this historic place: Jamaica Inn, Bodmin Moor, Bodmin Jail etc]

    There are 15 units in the block, I can try to get more custom for later.

    cheers all

    ooooooops - apologies for hijacking - will start my own

    I have just paid £85 for two in the same block of flats. I am in Luton.
  • although its spam, thats a damn good price for a gas safety check

    some1 mentioned rushed, but its not hard to do the checks.

    the hard part is the qualification

    i have family in the trade, and they charge me 40 quid.

    he used to want more til i started going elsewhere

    by the way, hi every1. im new and not a spammer :p

    The company I use for boiler maintenance have just quoted me £40 for the safety certificate after I reminded them that we use them to service/repair our boiler - I live in Suffolk.
    I am a cider drinker - like my father before me.
