I've used the Gas Safety Guy for a few years to get my boiler serviced, and when it finally broke GSG was the obvious choice to get it replaced. He was able to advise on a good quality boiler with a good warranty, gave me a quote for the replacement boiler & labour which I was happy with, and came round to install the boiler. I'm very pleased with his work and we now have a much more efficient boiler to keep our house nice and warm.

To supply and fit 30kw HE Combi boiler and to remove old boiler and fittings. The work was done very efficiently on the agreed day and time. The works were completed within the day with all old fittings removed from the house. Carpet protection was laid and removed on the completion of the job. The whole area was then hoovered clean. Very impressed.

I would highly recommend the Gas Safety Guy who I have been using to service my boiler for the past 3 years. The team - Paul, Malcom and Jennifer are friendly, helpful and quick to respond. They provide a very professional service at excellent prices. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. They arrive in uniform with a van showing their logo, and are also members of Trusted Trader edinburgh and West Lothian

I initially contacted Jennifer and Paul to have my gas boiler serviced. During the visit discovered there was an issue with the boiler/flow of the heating system, murky water in pipes and radiators. It was suggested to drain down the system and clean through to make it more efficient. To fit a new magna system and new heating thermostat at the same time.
The job was booked in and completed in a timely manner, the workers are always very pleasant, arrive on time are very knowledgeable. I knew what needed to be done and why, how much this would cost and I have no problem recommending them to anyone.
I will certainly be using them to ensure the gas appliances are serviced and safe to use and will be recommending the service in the future to family and friends.

We got the boiler serviced. It was very easy to arrange, they have good availability. Malcolm came at the allocated 2 hour slot. Very professional, clean and respectful of the current guidelines. Good communication with Jennifer. Got the corresponding documentation via email. I certainly recommend them.

I had my boiler replaced after the previous old one started to leak and lose pressure. The company was very helpful and quick to communicate with, and provided expert advice about my options. They explained the issues with my boiler and the work needing done to replace the old pipes in my property to bring them up to the correct size/standard. They sub-contracted with a joiner for the floors so that I did not have to arrange this separately.
During the job, Paul and Malcolm were very experienced, knowledgeable and friendly. I'd certainly recommend using their services in the future.

Gas-Safety-Guy did a great job upgrading my lead gas pipes to copper gas pipes in my flat. They also organised the joiner to do any pre- and post-job work, which was great. I fully recommend them.

Our boiler stopped working and managed to get an appointment within a couple of days, which was much faster than anyone else I rang. Malcolm diagnosed the problem pretty quickly and ordered the new part and fitted it the next week, so very happy with the job, would recommend!

We are at a top floor flat that had a hot water cylinder and a water tank, which took up most of the space in the storage room, now we have a new boiler and a new storage room! Paul and Malcom were very knowledgeable and helpful in the process. Jennifer was very helpful with all the recommendations as well. We had an old pipe that was broken we weren’t aware of, so it actually caused water leaking to the neighbor, which weren’t the guys fault but they took the initiative and fixed it as soon as possible. They are very hardworking! I wish I could pay them more! We are engineers as well, so we had a lot of nerdy questions during the whole process, but they are very patient with us haha. Definitely would recommend to anyone that are thinking about changing or fixing their heating system. You won’t be disappointed!

We have used the Gas Safety Guy on a few occasions now, for boiler servicing, replacing a boiler flue and to diagnose & fix a fault.
On all occasions they have come when agreed - usually within a day or two. They have always been professional, friendly and tidy, including taking extra precautions since the outbreak of the Corona virus pandemic.
Jennifer, in the office, is also friendly & efficient and easily contacted.
And yet their charges are reasonable.
All so different from previous companies. We highly recommend.

We were having a problem understanding how the boiler functioned in our new flat. Malcom the engineer visited and explained everything to us clearly and made sure everything was working as expected.
We were very happy with every aspect of the work and will be very happy to continue using Gas Safety Man engineers whenever we need any work done with our gas boiler or cooker.

I needed all the safety tests and services carried out in order to let out my property so opted for one of the Gas Safety Guy landlord packages. The service from start to finish was excellent. So easy to arrange with Jennifer via email and I received the documents and certificates I required within 24 hours of it being carried out. Would definitely recommend.

We had a problem with our boiler just before the weekend, we phoned the number to get someone to look into our boiler as we moved into our property not long ago, and we didn’t know if the boiler had any problem in the past (no service book provided from previous owner).
Jennifer booked a check as soon as possible before the week end for us, Malcolm come to check our boiler and our gas supplier and we found an expensive part needed to be replaced.
The day after we were thinking how to deal with this problem and Jennifer phoned me back, she used the serial number of our boiler to investigate with the brand who made it, if the boiler was still in warranty, and she gave me the option to pay a little fee and get the boiler back in warranty and get the part replaced by the Valliant at no cost.
She has been very helpful, honest and customer minded, she saved us a lot of money even if it was against her business.
She definately makes the extra miles for her customers and we cannot thank her enough.
We strongly recommend the Gas Safety Guy.

Boiler failed and was diagnosed with new ignition coil required, part was ordered and fitted when it arrived.
Excellent response time, went on line after 10pm to request a quote/call back and had a email waiting for me in the morning with a call out/diagnostic price. The Gas Safety Guys were out in the afternoon. Part was ordered on the Friday and fitted on the Tuesday, (Wasn't urgent as had alternative source of hot water and warm outside so no heating required).
Boiler back to full working order
Thanks Guys

We use Gas Safety Guy to do annual gas safety certificates, boiler services and emergency boiler fault resolution on a portfolio of properties across Edinburgh. They are quick to respond, reliable, trustworthy and professional. I definitely recommend them. They also do electronic certificates which is much more suitable for our business than the paper ones.

We used Gas Safety Guy to replace a central heating boiler in one of our rental properties. It was not a straightforward job for them but nothing was too much hassle for them.
