Strangely I thought exactly the same thing. I'd love to see a picture of this install. And the other one on the thread that was closed earlier.
 
I agree.. Knows enough to know that he needs a cert, but not which one. And why would the builder refuse to send the installer back. Doesn't make sense..
 
Builder may have fitted it and was going to get it signed off now can't find a mug
 
Either way it shows more classic examples of what Gas Safe need to do to improve our situation but just don't. I'm due to renew this year and you almost think why bother when other people are making more money out of not bothering
 
Just one thing fellas, if he did diy it then why mention the water leak behind the boiler.
 
It shouldn't be the case mate but people lie about everything just to get something done cheap

Believe me I know all about customers telling porkies, was just thinking maybe the OP has been turned over then jumped on here reading past threads re the benchmark and getting the boiler registered - Who knows.
 
Problem is mate it makes you cynical and you end up not trusting anyone

Agree, at least in my game I can normally prove it to them unlike dealing with people over a keyboard.

Do you mind!!!! We're having a witch hunt here and you come along with your voice of reason spoiling it for us all! :)

Fair point, though...

Hole in copper pipe, solder under floor, T coupling & protection
I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...

How to identify dripping tap.
Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
