A family-run firm is preparing to move into its new home.

GasCare will move into a unit at the Motorworks on Chestergate this month.

It comes at an exciting time for the company as they set their sights on becoming the go-to for boiler repairs and heating installations in Macclesfield.

Managing director Carl Enser said: "This move will help us continue to expand and show people that we are here.

"We are not just a company over the hill. We are local and we want to invest in local."

Carl was born in Glossop but moved to Macclesfield around 15 years ago, where he purchased Fabric IT.

After selling up during Covid, Carl was approached by his brother Craig with the chance to take over Glossop-based GasCare.

Carl says that since acquiring the business in December 2021 it has gone from 'strength to strength', with their turnover more than doubling.

That is thanks in part to their continued expansion in the Macclesfield area.

"I've lived here a while and always struggled to find good and reliable tradesmen," Carl said.

"When I bought GasCare that changed because I'd just bring my own team over.

"Then, as it does in Macclesfield, word of mouth gets going and soon people were asking me if they could use GasCare."

The company started operating in Silktown around three years ago and now employs four Macclesfield-based engineers.

It is understood that rival firm, Tomkinson Heating, entered liquidation earlier this month.

As such, Carl feels there is a 'gap in the market' for GasCare and they have already offered jobs to several people let go by Buxton Road-based Tomkinson (who have been approached for comment).

Among other things, GasCare offer boiler repairs, free energy audits, heating installations and ConstantCare service plans.

Carl said: "We're aware that the world has changed and people don't want big expenses.

"So we're trying to help out by offering a ConstantCare plan that spreads the cost like a subscription over a period of time.

"Our company is all about customer service, that is something we are really proud of.

"Lee, our install director, is an ex-RAF aircraft technician and he's brought a bit of that military professionalism and process to the organisation.

"We are very regimented and we strive to deliver a high standard across the business."
