How do I check if a plumber in Whitburn is Gas Safe registered?
Every engineer who works on gas appliances must be on the Gas Safe Register by law. Ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and verify it at GasSafeRegister.co.uk. The card shows which gas appliances they're qualified to work on.
How often should I get my boiler serviced in Whitburn?
Your boiler should be serviced annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Annual servicing keeps your boiler efficient, reduces breakdowns, extends its lifespan, and is usually required for manufacturer's warranty. A service costs £60–£120 and takes 30–60 minutes. Landlords are legally required to have an annual gas safety check.
