The engineer
You speak to the engineer — not a call centre.
I'm a Gas Safe registered heating engineer and I've spent eighteen years on the tools across Leicester — the last twelve running Redline as a local, family firm. We started out doing emergency callouts when the bigger outfits wouldn't pick up the phone at night, and that's still the heart of what we do.
When you call, you get a real engineer who's answered the 2am burst-pipe call a hundred times — calm, straight with you about what it'll cost, and there when we say we will be. The same person who quotes your job does the work and stands behind it, so there's nobody to pass the blame to. Emergency or a planned new boiler, you're looked after the same way.
- Local, family-run — you deal with the engineer
- Gas Safe registered on every gas job
- Honest ETAs and fixed-price quotes
- Every job left clean, tested and guaranteed
What 24/7 actually means
What you can count on, day or night
"24/7" and "fast" are easy to print. Here's what they actually mean when you call us in the middle of the night — and exactly what every customer gets, emergency or planned.
A fast, honest response window
We answer the phone day and night and give you a realistic ETA — not a vague "sometime today". If we're held up we'll tell you, so you're never left waiting and wondering by a cold radiator.
Fixed price before we start
You'll get a clear, fixed-price quote before any work begins, and a fixed first-hour rate on emergency callouts where we can. No surprise bills once the job's done — you decide with the full price in front of you.
Gas Safe on every gas job
Anything involving gas is done by a Gas Safe registered engineer, every time, with the work properly tested and certified. It's the law, it keeps your family safe, and we never cut that corner.
Sized right & commissioned properly
New boilers are sized to your home with a heat-loss calculation — not just a like-for-like swap — then commissioned and benchmarked to manufacturer spec. A correctly set-up boiler runs cleaner, lasts longer and costs less to run.

Reviews
What our customers say
4.9 average from 412 reviews
“Boiler packed in on the coldest night of the year with two little ones in the house. I called at 11pm expecting an answering machine — an engineer was at the door inside the hour and had us warm again before midnight. Absolute lifesavers.”
Hannah P.Emergency callout · WigstonGoogle “Had a pipe burst behind the kitchen units. They isolated it fast, traced the leak without ripping the whole kitchen out, and the price was exactly what they quoted on the phone. Calm, tidy and straight with you — can't fault them.”
Dev S.Emergency callout · LeicesterCheckatrade “We had a new combi fitted and the difference is night and day. They actually measured the house and explained why a smaller boiler was right rather than just selling us the biggest one. Spotless install and the house has never been warmer.”

Good to know
Frequently asked questions
The questions we're asked most about callout charges, response times, Gas Safe, fixed prices and cover. Can't see yours? Call our 24/7 line or send a message — we're always happy to talk it through.
Do you charge a callout fee?
We're upfront about charges before we set off — no hidden fees. For emergency callouts we work to a fixed first-hour rate wherever possible, and you'll always know the cost before any work begins. For planned jobs and quotes there's no charge to come and take a look.How fast can you actually get to me?
Our average response time is around an hour, and for genuine emergencies — no heat, a burst pipe, a gas smell — we prioritise getting an engineer to you as fast as we safely can, day or night. When you call we'll give you an honest ETA rather than a vague window, and keep you posted if anything changes.What does "Gas Safe registered" mean?
Gas Safe is the official register of engineers who are legally allowed to work on gas appliances in the UK — it replaced the old CORGI scheme. Every gas job we do is carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer (our registration number is 512904), and you're welcome to check it on the Gas Safe Register. It's the law, and it keeps your home and family safe.Are your prices really fixed?
Yes. Once we've diagnosed the problem we give you a clear, fixed-price quote and we stick to it — you approve the price before we start. The only time it would change is if you ask us to take on extra work, and we'd quote that separately first. No nasty surprises when the job's done.Which areas do you cover, and are you really 24/7?
We cover Leicester and the surrounding areas — Oadby, Wigston, Birstall, Syston, Glenfield, Blaby, Enderby and nearby. Our emergency line is answered around the clock, 365 days a year, including evenings, weekends and bank holidays. Planned work is booked during normal hours.Can you do landlord gas safety certificates?
Yes — we issue CP12 landlord gas safety certificates and can set up annual reminders so you never miss a renewal. We'll check every gas appliance and flue in the property, flag anything that needs attention, and give you the certificate you need to stay compliant.What warranty comes with a new boiler?
It depends on the make and model, but we fit boilers with manufacturer warranties of up to 10 years when they're installed and registered correctly — which is exactly why proper commissioning matters. On top of that, all of our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months.
