Gas Services
Gas services cover the installation, servicing and repair of domestic gas appliances and pipework, carried out exclusively by Gas Safe registered engineers as required by law.
Definition
What gas services involves
Any work on a gas appliance or gas pipework in the UK must, by law, be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This covers boilers, gas cookers and hobs, gas fires, and the pipework connecting them, along with landlord gas safety certificates (CP12) for rental properties.
Suitable for
- Gas appliance installation, servicing and repair
- Gas pipework installation or alteration
- Landlord gas safety certificates (CP12)
Not suitable for
- Anyone other than a Gas Safe registered engineer carrying out gas work — this is a legal requirement, not a preference
