Certified installation of gas appliances, pipework and related components. Jay Plumbing provides local service across Twickenham with straightforward advice, fixed prices and same-day availability where possible.
Gas Installation jobs are rarely just about swapping one part and leaving. A proper visit starts with checking the wider system, confirming what caused the fault and making sure the repair or installation suits the property.
Certified installation of gas appliances, pipework and related components. In and around Twickenham, that often means working around older pipework, limited access or systems that have been altered over time. We keep the process simple: assess the job, explain the options, agree the price, then complete the work as neatly and efficiently as possible.
For urgent issues, calling is usually the fastest route. For planned work, we can advise on the most practical repair or replacement based on the condition of the existing system.
We cover Twickenham, Richmond, Whitton, St Margarets, Strawberry Hill, East Twickenham, Hampton, Teddington and surrounding areas, with many jobs attended the same day depending on workload and the time of booking.

A new gas installation — whether a first-time connection, a replacement boiler, a new gas cooker point or an extended heating system — needs to be designed correctly, installed safely and documented properly. Jay Plumbing's Gas Safe engineers handle all aspects of domestic gas installation work in Twickenham and the surrounding area.
All new gas installations are tested, purged and signed off to current Gas Safe and Building Regulations standards. We provide full documentation including installation certificates, which you will need for building control notification and for any future property sale. Failure to use a Gas Safe engineer and obtain proper certification can complicate property sales and invalidate home insurance.
For new boiler installations, we assess the existing system before specifying a replacement — checking radiator sizing, pipe sizing, controls, and whether the current flue position is suitable. The right boiler for your property depends on your hot water demand, the number of occupants, the size of the heating system and your budget. We advise based on these factors rather than defaulting to the most expensive option.
New boiler installation — Replacement of an existing boiler with a modern, more efficient unit. We advise on combi, system and heat-only options based on your property's needs. Installation includes connecting the new boiler, testing the system, setting up controls, and commissioning to manufacturer specifications.
First-time boiler installation — For properties converting from electric heating or being connected to the gas network for the first time. We liaise with the gas network operator for the supply connection and design the internal system from scratch.
Gas appliance connection — Installation of new gas cookers, hobs, fires, and other gas appliances. All connections are tested for leaks and documented.
Gas pipework extension — Additional gas supply pipework to serve new appliances, relocated appliances, or extensions and new rooms. Pressure testing and certification included.
System upgrades — Upgrading from a conventional to a combi boiler system, adding a pressurised hot water cylinder, upgrading controls to smart thermostatic systems, or adding radiators to an existing system.
Gas meter relocation — Working with National Grid Gas to relocate meters that are in inconvenient positions, alongside any internal pipework alterations required.
New boiler installations fall under Part L of the Building Regulations. Gas Safe registered engineers are able to self-certify this work under the Competent Person scheme, notifying building control on your behalf. You should receive a certificate of compliance. Keep this safe as you will need it when selling the property.
We work with boilers from all major manufacturers including Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi, Viessmann and others. The best choice depends on your system requirements, budget, and local parts availability. We will make a recommendation based on your specific situation rather than brand preference.
A standard like-for-like boiler replacement typically takes one day. More complex installations — particularly those involving flue relocation, system upgrades or significant pipework changes — may take two days. We will give you a realistic programme before work begins.
Yes. We provide written quotations for all installation work, with a clear breakdown of what is included. For straightforward replacements we can often quote remotely based on photos and a brief description. More complex projects may need a survey visit, which is free of charge.
