GAS-ELEC CELEBRATES 15 YEARS OF BUSINESS

London, 18 January 2011 – gas-elec, the leader in the field of gas and electrical safety inspections, marks a milestone this year by celebrating its 15th anniversary. “The foundations of gas-elec were laid way back in 1996 with the launch of gas-elec Safety Systems, which pioneered the provision of combined safety inspection services in the United Kingdom,” says John Davidson, managing director of the gas-elec group. Now the leader in its field, gas-elec operates in a £2 billion market and despite global recessions the company has “weathered the storm” and continues to report an increase in earnings year on year. “We have a long-established reputation with our clients who know that they can depend on the impartiality of our reports and quality of the work,” adds John. Over the years, gas-elec has continued to identify important markets creating tailored offerings, which supported by a bespoke IT system enables clients to book appointments and view reports online. The company proactively indentifies new business opportunities and the recent launch of boiler/ heating breakdown cover for homeowners and landlords saw the insurance side of the business grow. “Our FSA registration means that we are able to introduce to the market new insurance products in accordance with the needs of our clients. Our research indicated that there was a huge demand for simple yet effective boiler/ heating breakdown cover. We believe our heat-care Plan product does just this – and the sales prove it!” In response to the global call to save energy, gas-elec has also over the years launched a number of energy-saving products and services. The company will soon be offering photovoltaic (PV) solar panel installations nationwide. ENDS/…
