How to avoid illegal Gas Safe engineers<\/h2>\n

There are 7 things you can do to avoid illegal Gas Safe engineers – check their Gas Safe ID card for certain features. Don’t be afraid to ask for their card! And if they can’t produce one, don’t let them do the work on your boiler<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

1. Check their photo<\/h3>\n

Is their photo a true likeness? Check whether their picture is up-to-date. The card is renewed every year, so they shouldn’t have a picture that is years old on there.<\/p>\n

2. Look at the start and expiry dates<\/h3>\n

As the card is renewed every year, the card should only be valid for this period. Make sure the card is in date.<\/p>\n

3. Check the licence number<\/h3>\n

Check the licence number against the Gas Safe Register. You can do this easily online. Just use the checking tool<\/a> on the Gas Safe Register website.<\/p>\n

4. Inspect the security hologram<\/h3>\n

This hologram will be manufactured so it’s difficult for people to copy. Check that it is genuine.<\/p>\n

5. Verify their company<\/h3>\n

The engineer’s card will tell you what business they are from. Make sure this matches up with what you were expecting.<\/p>\n

If they’re from a company that we’ve matched you with, we’ll have already checked they’re Gas Safe registered. Fill in our online form<\/a> to start finding Gas Safe registered engineers in your area now.<\/p>\n

6. Check they’re qualified<\/h3>\n

7. See if their qualifications are valid<\/h3>\n

The back of the card will also tell you whether their qualifications are in date. If they’re not, don’t let them carry out the work.<\/p>\n
