Yes. Every engineer working on gas appliances, boilers or central heating is Gas Safe registered — the UK's official safety register for gas engineers. We can provide our registration number on request. By law, only Gas Safe engineers can legally work on gas installations in the UK. All other plumbing work is carried out by fully qualified tradespeople with 15+ years of experience.
For burst pipes or flooding: Turn off your stopcock immediately (usually under the kitchen sink, in the airing cupboard or near the water meter). Turn clockwise to close. Then turn off your boiler, open taps to drain the system, and move valuables and electrics away from water. Take photos for your insurance claim. Do not turn electricity back on if there is standing water.

If you smell gas: Leave the property, leave doors open, do not switch any lights on or off. Call the National Gas Emergency line: 0800 111 999, then call us.
