What should I ask a gas engineer before hiring them?

Before hiring a gas engineer, ask about their **experience, qualifications, and insurance coverage**. Ask about the timeline for your project, the estimated costs, and the payment structure. It's also wise to request references from previous clients and ensure they are familiar with the specific gas work required.

Are gas engineers required to have insurance?

Gas engineers are not legally required to have insurance, but it is highly recommended. **Most professional gas engineers will have public liability insurance to cover any damage to property or injury caused during work**. Always **ask for proof of insurance** before hiring a gas engineer.

Do gas engineers offer guarantees on their work?

Yes, gas engineers **typically offer a guarantee on their work**. This can range from a few months to several years, depending on the scope of the project. It’s essential to check the terms of the guarantee, which **should cover any defects or issues arising from poor workmanship**.

How can I verify a gas engineer’s qualifications?

You can verify a gas engineer’s qualifications by checking their Gas Safe registration. **Only Gas Safe engineers are legally allowed to carry out gas work in the UK**. Ask for their registration number and verify it on the Gas Safe Register website.

How much deposit should I pay a gas engineer?

It’s common to **pay a deposit of around 10% to 20% of the total project cost upfront**. However, this **should be agreed upon in writing before any work begins**. Be cautious of gas engineers who ask for large upfront payments, and make sure you have a clear contract in place to protect both parties.

Gas Work- 18 Jun 2021
Excellent service. Explained the issues we we're up against, M.H.C.A took all things into account then rescheduled less urgent jobs to prioritise and consider our tricky position with difficult tenants. Arrived on time and was professional, efficient and priced fairly. Came up against an additional problem and immediately rectified it and returned the next day to complete the job in full since there was extra work to do on top of the original defect. Absolutely recommend this service to anyone who's after a proper service.

The job was a full renovation and reconfiguration of an old cottage. The project took around 5 months to complete and included the addition of underfloor heating, the removal and restoration of ceilings, building into the eaves of the roof of the property, the addition of bifold aluminium doors and windows turning a dark property into a bright, open plan living space. A garden room was also built. Ryan and his team were very professional and a pleasure to work with. They were always on site when they said they would be and I would definitely work with them when undertaking a new project. We were very happy with the workmanship and the outcome of the renovation. I highly recommend Ryan and his team.

I had an emergency leak and contact Raymer, although it was Saturday night he responded immediately, talked me through how to shut the water off and he was here first thing to fix it. It was not an easy job at all as the pipes were buried in concrete but Raymer was not leaving until he was 100 percent sure he’d sorted the problem. Would highly recommend Raymer, absolute prefoessional!
