Hello folks,

How much (if any) buggering about is one allowed to do to one's own gas

None unless rated as competent ... which currently means GasSafe

There is nothing in law that says being a GasSafe member is the sole method
of demonstrating competance.

Have seen the work of a couple of CORGI fitters in particular, I'd trust me
more.



But it is one of the accepted ways of proving competence if required.

same way an Electrician can use NICEIC registration.
