Your safety is our prime concern.

Property Registration
The Occupational Health and Safety Act, 1993, Regulation 17(3) of the Pressure Equipment Regulations, 2009 require owners of buildings to hold a certificate of compliance in respect of all gas installations.

Inspection will be undertaken and if required, remedial work carried out to ensure the installation is compliant before a certificate is issued.

Compliance certificates are required by your Insurance company

It is important  from a safety perspective, as well as a legal and claims aspect, that the gas installer is properly licensed and registered, as failure to do so could result in a claim being repudiated, and / or the installation not being compliant according to regulations.

Inspections will be carried out and if required, remedial work carried out to ensure the installation is compliant before a certificate is issued.
