Use a Gas Safe engineer

Badly fitted and poorly serviced appliances can cause gas leaks, fires, explosions and carbon monoxide poisoning. Using an illegal gas fitter can end up costing you thousands of pounds to have fixed. Worst of all, it could put the lives of you, and your loved ones in danger.

How do I know if the gas fitter I’m using is illegal?

If your gas fitter is not Gas Safe Registered then they are illegal.

Not all gas engineers are qualified to work on all types of gas appliance. Make sure you check the back of their ID card to make sure they are qualified to do the specific type of gas work you need. If they put in a gas fire for example, but they’re only Gas Safe registered for pipework and boilers, they are illegal.

If they work for a Gas Safe registered firm during the week and are doing private work in their spare time on the side, they are also illegal.
