At ATAG, we speak to professional installers every day and we hear the same frustration time and time again: that illegal gas work is out of control, and it’s affecting everyone who plays by the rules.

Whether you’re self-employed or part of a growing team, you’ve worked hard to become a Gas Safe registered installer. You’ve invested time, money, and dedication to do things properly, and yet unqualified individuals are still cutting corners, doing the work illegally, and often undercutting you in the process.

Let’s be clear, this isn’t just about fair competition. Illegal gas work poses a serious risk not only to other installers, but to homeowners and their families too. We’re seeing more and more cases where poor workmanship leads to gas leaks, fires, and even explosions in homes and buildings across the UK. It’s not dramatic, it’s real, and it’s happening.

Every time an unregistered installer does a dodgy job and walks away, they’re leaving behind a potential disaster. And it’s the qualified professionals who are left to pick up the pieces; often dealing with dangerous callouts or the difficult task of telling a homeowner that their system needs to be redone from scratch.

That’s why ATAG is launching a campaign to fight back. We want to raise awareness of the real dangers of illegal gas work, put pressure on the government and authorities to step up enforcement, and ensure that more homeowners understand the importance of choosing a Gas Safe registered installer.

But we can’t do it without your help…

We’ve launched a petition to call for stronger action against illegal gas work and we’re asking all installers in the industry to stand with us. The more voices we have behind us, the harder it will be to ignore. It takes just two minutes to sign, and your support will send a clear message: We want change.

Sign the petition here – https://www.atagheating.co.uk/help-us-stop-all-illegal-gas-work-in-the-uk/

Once you’ve signed, please share it with your colleagues, friends and family. The more people who understand the risks, the better. It only takes a minute, but it could help save a life.

Thank you!
