Do I need a Gas Safe registered engineer?

For gas appliances, you should always ask whether the engineer is Gas Safe registered. This helps ensure the work meets current safety requirements for gas systems. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.

What is included in a boiler service?

A service usually involves checks of safety, pressure and key components. The Heating Engineer will confirm what is included and whether any parts need attention. Ask what is included, how long the work may take, and what happens if extra issues appear.

What is an EICR and is it needed for heating work?
