Wearside firm urges customers to wrap up

Houghton-based 0800 Repair Gas is now offering insulation services including cavity, loft and external wall insulation services.

Supporting its team of Gas Safe registered heating engineers and boiler repair specialists, the firm has appointed an experienced Insulation Technical Manager to oversee the newly-formed operation, with plans to create additional roles in the near future.

Brian Ireland, 37, from Brunswick Village, has taken on the role.

He has worked in the industry for more than 18 years for both national and regional firms, working his way up to management roles over the course of his career.

Brian’s appointment will help sustain 0800 Repair Gas’ growth by meeting increased demand as well as opening up new opportunities and markets.

Phil Pallister, Managing Director of 0800 Repair Gas, which forms part of the Pacifica Group, said: “This is an exciting time for the company as we look to increase our market share and deliver new services to customers.

“We are always looking at ways to implement new, energy-efficient technologies into our processes, and offering this new service will help people save in the long-term.

“Brian is an experienced professional within the sector and his knowledge will stand both 0800 Repair and Gas and the Pacifica Group in good stead as we look to grow our core services and create further job opportunities, particularly in this latest venture.”

0800 Repair Gas currently serves domestic and commercial markets across the North East.

Brian is looking forward to getting to work.

“I am focused on building a fully-functional team and growing the division over the next couple of years, in line with the company’s ambitious expansion plans,” he said.

“Offering a comprehensive service, from consultancy all the way through to application, gives clients an efficient and bespoke insulation solution.”
