No you can't, well NOT gas work, unless you have the required cert.

Wrong, the law says you have to be 'competent' (see discussions here
before)

Where does the LAW say that.
Have you actually read up on it I thought not.

Are we _really_ going through this again?


Quite.

Do I have to use a Gas Safe registered engineer to complete gas work?


Anyone employed to work on gas appliances in domestic premises must be a Gas Safe registered engineer link to external website and competent in that area of gas work. The gas engineer's competencies are clearly marked on the back of the engineer's Gas Safe Register ID card. If in any doubt you can ring Gas Safe Register 0800 408 5500 or check their website link to external website to see if the engineer is registered.


We're talking about DIY, so that's not relevant. Next?
