Gas safety

 

GAS SAFE LOGOGas safety in Great Britain has changed. CORGI gas registration ended in Great Britain and Isle of Man on 31 March and no longer applies to gas safety law. From 1 April, all gas engineers must be on the new Gas Safe Register™ to do gas work lawfully.  Always ask for a Gas Safe registered engineer.  And always ask to see their ID card.

As a tenant, it is important to always check the ID of any gas engineer that comes to do work at your property. The engineer must be a Gas Safe registered engineer.

It’s in your best interest to co-operate with us whenever a gas safety check or maintenance needs to be carried out by letting the engineer in to do the work. We will supply you with a copy of the safety check within 28 days of it being carried out or before you move in.

If you smell gas call National Gas Emergency Number on 0800 111 999 
(24 hour emergency line).

For more information about what to do in a gas emergency go to Gas Safe Registers’ website.
