For regulated domestic gas work in Ireland, verify the installer through the Registered Gas Installer scheme before work and ask for the appropriate completion certificate afterwards. UK Gas Safe registration is not the Irish verification route.

Before booking

Search the official RGI register using the installer’s details. Ask who will attend, confirm the work falls within the registered scope and keep the written quotation. If the person does not appear, contact the RGI scheme rather than relying on a badge or screenshot.

At the appointment

Ask to see the current RGI identification. Check the photograph, number and year, and compare them with the register. Do not allow regulated gas work to proceed if identity or status cannot be confirmed.

Completion documents

RGI guidance states that when an RGI carries out gas work, the appropriate completion certificate is issued to the person who requested it. The certificate type depends on the work; do not assume a service, repair and boiler replacement use the same form.

Keep the certificate with the invoice, commissioning record, appliance manual, guarantee registration and service requirements. Ask the RGI to explain any notification or follow-up relevant to the job.

Frequently asked questions

What if an installer does not appear in the online search?

Pause the booking and contact the RGI scheme with the exact name and number. Do not accept a logo as a substitute.

What paperwork should I ask about for replacement?

The appropriate RGI completion certificate, commissioning information, invoice, control instructions and guarantee registration. Confirm the certificate type with RGI.
