Can you take over servicing of an existing installation not originally supplied by Ribble GD?
Yes. Our engineers are manufacturer-approved across all major gas detection brands and can service, recalibrate, or upgrade existing systems regardless of supplier. We begin with a site survey to assess the system’s condition, ensuring full compliance and optimal performance before ongoing maintenance begins.
How long does a typical installation or commissioning process take?
The duration depends on the size and complexity of the system. Smaller single-area installations can often be completed within a day, while larger or multi-zone sites may take several days. Our team provides a clear project timeline following the initial site survey and design assessment.
What information will I receive in the engineer’s service report?
Each visit includes a detailed service and calibration report outlining all checks performed, calibration results, parts replaced, and any recommendations for system improvements. Reports are fully traceable and formatted to meet audit and compliance requirements.
Do you offer maintenance contracts or one-off servicing options?
Yes. We offer both flexible one-off servicing and comprehensive maintenance contracts. Contract clients benefit from scheduled visits, priority support, and cost savings on replacement parts — helping to ensure continuous compliance and dependable performance year-round.
Are replacement sensors and controllers covered under warranty after installation?
All replacement parts supplied and installed by Ribble GD are covered by a manufacturer-backed warranty. Warranty periods vary by product type, and our engineers will confirm specific coverage details during installation or servicing.
Do you offer emergency call-outs or out-of-hours servicing?
Yes. We provide emergency and out-of-hours support for critical systems where downtime poses safety or operational risks. Our rapid response team ensures your fixed gas detection network remains safe and compliant, 24/7.
