RGI registration and gas work in Cork

Any contractor carrying out gas boiler installation or other notifiable gas work in Cork must hold RGI (Registered Gas Installer) certification. This is a legal requirement in Ireland, not a recommendation. Unregistered gas work can void home insurance and causes problems when selling your property. For all other plumbing work, CIRI registration (ciri.ie) is voluntary but a useful indicator of a professional contractor. Browse RGI registered gas installers in Cork for boiler and gas work.
