Highly trained engineers

British Gas invest £30 million each year to ensure their engineers are the very best in the business. Their engineers train at one of 13 award-winning British Gas Engineering Academies and continue to receive ongoing training throughout their careers. British Gas also arrange regular safety seminars to keep them up to date with the latest safety standards and regulations.

These engineers are fully trained in customer service too. They make it a priority to minimise disruption to you and your home and to be polite, courteous and professional at all times. 

Some British Gas HomeCare products include cover for your plumbing and drains and the British Gas-owned company, Dyno-Rod, deals with any plumbing and drainage problems in these instances.  Dyno-Rod is the UK’s most experienced drains repair company and all their engineers are similarly trained to the highest standard.

What’s Involved?

When you visit the British Gas website you can get an instant British Gas HomeCare quotation based upon your postcode and a simple form filling exercise completes the ordering process.

Policy costs vary slightly according to postcode and, in particular, it is worth noting that those who live within the M25 pay higher premiums to cover the additional costs of repairs in Greater London.

British Gas HomeCare do not tie you into a 12 month contract (as with some other other products) and if you choose to cancel the policy at any time there willl just be a cancellation charge to cover their costs.

Although British Gas is not the cheapest on the market, it is worth knowing that their annual boiler safety check is worth at least £60 per annum.

What’s Our View?

Good offers in the British Gas Summer Sale, saving up to 15% on HomeCare!
British Gas HomeCare has an impressive range of 8 plans on offer with HomeCare 400 being the most expensive at around £22.87 per/month and HomeCare 100 Flexi the cheapest at £10.50 per/month. British Gas HomeCare Flexi differs from the full HomeCare product in that an excess of £50 per repair is charged in return for the reduced premiums. 

In our opinion, the basic British Gas HomeCare 100 package provides adequate cover for your boiler and its controls and includes both unlimited call outs and an annual service. Although the Flexi 100 product is slightly cheaper, you would only need one call out per year to make the additional premium more than worthwhile.

The ‘unlimited call outs’ can be for any number of repairs and includes full parts and labour.  Perhaps more importantly for some, subject to an initial inspection from one of British Gas’ engineers Homecare 100 will cover your boiler no matter how old it is.
