About this sector

Gas work is legally restricted, and the register is public, so the first check is mechanical: is this engineer Gas Safe registered, and do their categories cover the work they are quoting for?

Beyond that, the sector splits sharply between domestic and commercial competence. A domestic boiler engineer is not qualified for commercial plant, and the distinction is a legal one rather than a matter of experience.

Questions about plumbing and heating

How much does a new boiler cost in West Yorkshire?

A combi boiler replacement in a comparable position typically costs £2,200 to £3,200 fitted in 2026, and £3,000 to £4,000 if the system is being converted or the boiler relocated. System and regular boilers with cylinder work run higher. Prices across West Yorkshire vary less than people expect — usually a few hundred pounds between Leeds and Calderdale — because the boiler itself is most of the cost.

How do I check an engineer is Gas Safe registered?

Every registered engineer carries an ID card with a licence number, a photograph, an expiry date and a list of the work categories they are qualified for. Check the number on the Gas Safe Register website or by phone, and check the categories cover the specific job — domestic boilers, commercial catering and commercial heating are separate. An engineer who cannot produce the card should not touch the appliance.
