Gas Safe Register


Gas Safe Register

Gas Safe Register has replaced CORGI in Great Britain and the Isle of Man. The register exists to protect you, your family, and your property from dangerous gas work. By law, anyone carrying out work on gas installations and appliances in your home must be on the Gas Safe Register.  You can find a Gas Safe registered business in your area by entering your postcode.  Every gas safe engineer carries a Gas Safe card which verifies that they are who they say they are and which also gives details of the work they are legally allowed to undertake. Always ask to see their card.

Landlords and tenants can find advice on rights and responsibilities regarding gas appliances and gas safety when renting a property.

SNIPEF Licensed Plumbing Businesses are inspected on an ongoing basis, employ properly qualified and trained staff, hold Public Liability Insurance and produce an annual Financial Integrity Statement. If there is a complaint either about the cost of the work undertaken by the Licensed Business or the quality of work, these should be raised in the first instance with the Licensed Business. The Licensed Business will investigate any complaints made and take the necessary action to resolve the complaint. If contact with the Licensed Business fails to resolve the matter, then the Plumbing Licensing Board operates an independent complaints mechanism.
