Definitely NOT! it’s illegal for a boiler to be installed by someone who is not a gas safe registered! It’s all about safety, should an accident happen through faulty workmanship by a non-qualified person resulting in serious injury or loss of life would mean a huge fine and or imprisonment or both!

Be warned!

Always check an engineer’s Gas Safe registration from their ID, which usually has a picture of the engineer and their Gas Safe number – a quick call to Gas Safe on 0800 408 5500 will verify (or not) the engineer’s registration details.
