The Best Gas Engineer in Edinburgh


Use the RIGHT tool for the job. The Best for one job is not the Best for every job.


Who is the Best Gas Engineer in Edinburgh?

At HomeForce we don’t promise the best (or cheapest for that matter). But we will find you the “right” gas engineer.

It’s pointless trying to find the best. They don’t exist. For any task the “best” will depend on circumstances (i.e. the requirements of the job). The “best” is a subjective opinion anyway.

However, by getting the right Gas Engineer for the job HomeForce should, by default, get the best Gas & Heating Engineer for your job.

Websites that rate tradespeople are all well and good. But they don’t really show who the best is. Why?

  • Because ratings given are, at best, inconsistent (one person’s four stars can be another persons five (or three).
  • Worse still, ratings can be entirely fictitious. (Read more here)
  • A poor rating doesn’t do any more that beat a tradesperson with a stick that says “get better”. It doesn’t tell them how to get better.

For these reasons HomeForce takes good Gas Engineers and helps to make them better;

  • Improve their communications with customers.
  • Make quotes they send clearer.
  • Help them to be more organised and so punctual and reliable.

What makes a Gas & Heating Engineer “Right”?

  1. Skills, Qualifications and Experience
    • All Gas Safe Registered Engineers have the same basic qualifications though some have taken further courses in, say, Gas Fires, a particular Boiler Manufacturers products, or particular fault repairs.
    • With added experience in one area or another any given engineer may be better than another for a particular circumstance but they may still struggle to justifiably claim to be THE best.
  2. Preferences for types of work
    • Gas & Heating Engineers often have a preference for the type of work they do; some like to do repairs, some hate dealing with fires, some want only to do boiler & central heating installations.
    • Usually if one enjoys doing something then you will be better at it, but maybe still not THE best.
  3. Availability and Price
    • The “best” engineers are no good if they are not available or charge more than a fair market rate.

Better but Not THE BEST

HomeForce suggest that given “the BEST” is too intangible then HomeForce’s job is to help the good (or even better) ones do the things that provide a good service (and so make them better).

  • Respond quickly to customers
  • Provide honest advice
  • Communicate (clearly and at appropriate times)
  • Break down quotes and estimates
  • Get organised and so be punctual & reliable
