Why can't I carry out Gas work myself?

Gas is safe in the hands of an expert but in unqualified hands the results can be disastrous. A significant amount of gas work carried out by non-registered installers has been found to have serious safety defects. That's why, by law, all installation businesses carrying out gas work for you must be registered with CORGI.

DIY can be great fun and a great way to save money. But never DIY with gas. You could be breaking the law, you could be endangering lives and you could have enforcement action taken out against you.

It's not worth it. Remember: no- one checks their gas work to make sure it meets the required safety standards.

Be safe. Ensure your gas appliances are checked for safety annually, and only employ a CORGI Registered Installer. Don't try to save on safety. You may end up paying far more.

CORGI Registered Installers will also make sure that your appliances meet all gas safety and building regulations and that you have the necessary documentation you may need to sell your house in the future.

What are the advantages of using KettellGas Engineers?

When gas is used correctly and with respect it is a safe and economical fuel. However - as with any area of expertise - people working with gas need to have the appropriate training and experience. We are CORGI Registered Installers and have had significantly more training that required to be accepted on to the CORGI register. The training and assessments our registered gas installers have are not only about the technical know-how of specific appliances but also about safety. All assessments are renewed every five years in order to keep installers up to date with ever-changing standards and regulations and to keep their knowledge fresh.

It is not only illegal for people to work with gas unless they are CORGI Registered, it is also highly dangerous. Statistics demonstrate that a significant proportion of gas work carried out by people who are not registered with CORGI is incorrect and therefore potentially unsafe.
