Our disconnection service when life changes
I’m Zaf, and my family-run team provides a professional cooker disconnection service across the North West for customers who need their kitchen left safe — not just a quick unplug. Whether you are moving home, planning a kitchen renovation, relocating abroad, or waiting for a new cooker, we cap gas supplies to Gas Safe standards and isolate electric circuits properly. You get a written record and certificate on completion.
Moving home
Selling or leaving a property? A proper cooker disconnection protects you at handover. We disconnect your gas or electric cooker, cap or isolate the supply safely, and leave documentation your buyer, landlord or solicitor may need. Same-day slots are often available when you book early.
Kitchen renovations
Before units come out or builders start, your cooker must be disconnected safely. We carry out cooker disconnection ahead of rip-outs and refits so gas is capped and electrics are not left live behind the cabinets. Tell us your timeline on WhatsApp and we will book the slot that fits your project.
Relocating abroad
Shipping furniture and closing a UK home? We help you shut down the kitchen properly before you go. Our disconnection service makes sure gas is capped and electric cookers are isolated so the property is safe for keys handover, void periods, or new tenants.
Getting a new cooker
Delivery day for your replacement appliance? We disconnect the old cooker first so the space is clear and safe. You can book installation with us on another day, or use another supplier — either way your supplies will be left in a known, safe state after our visit.
Every job is carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers (no. 225879) for gas work and qualified engineers for electric cookers. From £65 for a standard disconnect, with no upfront payment when you book online above.

What Customers Say
Zaf did an excellent job on my cooker disconnection. He was professional, efficient, and clearly experienced. He capped the gas properly and tidied the pipework at the wall so nothing was left sticking out awkwardly, which I really appreciated.
He was also friendly and easy to talk to, which made the whole process smooth. His pricing was fair and reasonable for the quality of work provided.
Overall, a very high standard of service. I would definitely recommend him.
Booked online at 9am and the engineer arrived by 11:30am. My old Beko cooker was disconnected, gas capped and tested, and the kitchen left safe within 45 minutes. Brilliant service — would absolutely use NW Cooker Installation again.
