Can a plumber work on a boiler?
The answer depends on the individual plumber, their skills and experience, and the type of boiler you have.
Some plumbers will be qualified to work on a boiler and many will be Gas Safe registered so they’ll be able to carry out work on gas boilers and other gas appliances.
That said, not all plumbers will have the necessary know-how and qualifications to work on your boiler.
For that reason, it’s always important to check each plumber’s skills and experience to ensure that the tradesperson you hire is the right person for the job.

Is the plumber Gas Safe registered?
If you have a gas boiler, check that they’re actively registered to work on gas boilers on the Gas Safe Register.
It’s a legal requirement that any tradespeople who work on gas appliances are Gas Safe registered.
Thankfully it’s quick and easy to search the Gas Safe Register online, either by using the tradesperson’s company name or registration number.
You should also ask to see their Gas Safe ID card when they arrive at your home, and check that it’s valid (as they need to update their registration every year).
A genuine Gas Safe ID card will show the following information:
-
Photo of the Gas Safe plumber
-
Their unique registration number
-
Start and expiry dates of their registration
-
A security hologram
-
Any affiliated business name
If you have any doubts or concerns about whether a plumber is certified to carry out work on your gas boiler, do not hire them – and you can even report them to the Gas Safe register, if needed.
