Reasons to hire a Gas Safe Engineer

No matter what type of gas work is being carried out, whether it's a new boiler installation, a boiler service or a landlord safety check, it's important that you hire a Gas Safe registered engineer...

What is the Gas Safe register?

The Gas Safe Register is an online list of all qualified engineers in the UK, as well as stating all the rules and regulations they must follow. The register replaced CORGI as the official governing body for England, in 2009 with an updated, improved set of guidelines.

What is a Gas Safe Engineer?

A Gas Safe engineer is an engineer on the Gas Safe Register, as simple as it sounds, this is all it means! This proves to customers that you have been correctly trained and are qualified to work safely and efficiently with boilers, fires, cookers and any other domestic gas appliance. To be on the Gas Safe Register, engineers have a strict set of guidelines to follow. These keep the customer safe, as well as ensuring a high level of quality with every job.

Why should I hire a Gas Safe engineer?

Safety

Gas appliances can be very dangerous and have the potential to leak carbon monoxide, start a house fire or explode. These risks are generally uncommon but your chances of something going wrong become much more likely when an unqualified worker has been servicing or repairing your boiler (or any other gas appliance). These risks can occur with no warning signs, so it is vital you only hire a Gas Safe engineer. By being on the register, you can be sure they know what they are doing.

Quality

The Register requires all work to be carried out to the highest standard, as the customers’ satisfaction is always the priority. Our gas engineers don’t cut any corners with their work, keeping you safe and giving you something to be satisfied with for years to come. 

Satisfaction 

We offer an efficient and highly professional service, so you’re satisfied every time. However, at The Gas Safe register, they know problems can arise and sometimes customers are left unhappy with work that has been carried out. They make it easy to report and problems you have experienced, and all issues are resolved thoroughly. By being on the register, engineers have to co-operate with any investigations that come as a result of negative feedback.
