A Gas Safe registered engineer is the only person legally allowed to work on gas appliances in your home in the UK. They fit and service boilers, gas hobs, fires and meters; diagnose leaks; and certify installations.
Common jobs: Annual boiler service; Boiler breakdown diagnosis; New boiler fit; Gas hob installation; Gas leak investigation; Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12).

FAQ
A business needs a 4★ Google rating and at least five reviews to be listed at all. From there we score on a combination of average rating and total review count. The composite favours businesses with both high ratings AND a meaningful number of reviews — so a 5-star gas engineer with 3 reviews won't outrank a 4.9-star one with 200. No paid placements, no sponsorship.
Every quarter. If a business drops below 4★ or shuts down, they're removed and the next-best Ayr gas engineer moves up. Badges already earned remain valid — winning a 2026 Top 5 award doesn't get retroactively revoked.
No. Listings are free — we don't accept payment for placement, sponsorship, or featured spots. Submit your business via Get listed for consideration in the next refresh.
