By law, the only professionals that are allowed to work on gas and fit, fix and service boilers, gas fires and most types of gas cookers in your home are Gas Safe Registered engineers. Public safety is Gas Safe Register’s top priority. Should anyone other than a Gas Safe Registered engineer work on the gas in a home, there is a real risk to the safety of the family and also the property. A Streatham Plumber is Corgi registered. The above definitely applies to some DIY jobs that we may want to try. The rules and regulations are very specific about all work that needs to be done involving gas and electricity supplies, the main reason being, the safety of you and anyone in our household. If someone needs a professional to do some gas work, they have to be what is known as a CORGI registered gas fitting engineer. Streatham Plumbers are trained on all equipment. So, before even a professional can start work in a home, they have a duty to provide physical proof of their identity and also that they are qualified to work on a specific appliance or service. An operative should always carry and display a CORGI credit card sized proof of his identity. The card will also shows his or her photograph. If there is any doubt whatsoever, their details can be cofirmed by calling CORGI on 0870 401 2300 or if you have an internet connection, you should log onto www.trust corgi.com. The rear of the operative’s card shows all the gas work that this particular operative can carry out, so make sure that they are qualified to carry out the work for that particular equipment or service. If a customer does not feel sure that an engineer is working without being registered they must report them to CORGI straight away.
