Re: DIY Gas Fitting
I agree with all the above but was told that for DIY the term competent was the legal term.
And apparently it is really hard to define competent in court because it means different things to different people.
I guess the bottom line would be that if a DIY person moved a gas pipe and as a direct result of the work the house blew up at a later date and people died, then that person would have a difficult task proving he or she were competent.
However if the same person did the work and there was no incident and the work was neat and tidy and met all requirements then it would be difficult for a court to prove the person was incompetent.
However I would still advise using Corgi qualified people to do the work because gas is so dangerous.
