What homeowners ask plumbers

With what our guides tell them. Answer these in your quote, and later on your listing.

Do you work on gas?

By law, anyone who works on gas in your home must be on the Gas Safe Register. Ask to see each engineer’s Gas Safe card and check it lists the work you need. When sign-up opens and you create your profile, we’ll ask whether you do gas work; if you answer yes, your Gas Safe number is needed to appear.

Can you fit an unvented cylinder and sign it off?

A registered installer signs off a new heating system or hot water cylinder themselves and gives you a certificate that it meets building regulations. Homeowners read who can fit and notify an unvented cylinder in our unvented cylinder guide.

Do you take the old fittings away?

Any business that takes waste away, including its own building waste, must be registered with the environment regulator for its nation. We ask whether you take waste away, and if you do, your registration number.

Are you a member of a plumbing body?

Membership of the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering, or SNIPEF in Scotland and Northern Ireland, shows as a badge once we’ve checked it.

What we’ll check before plumbers appear

Companies House, if you’re a limited company or LLP: we’ll check the company is active.
Only if you take waste away: Waste carrier registration. The law and the registers
Only if you do gas work: Gas Safe Register. By law, anyone who works on gas in your home must be on the Gas Safe Register. Ask to see each engineer's Gas Safe card and check it lists the work you need. The law and the registers
Who runs the business: an ID check, or a code letter for a company’s director.

Badges you can add (not needed to appear): Heating and hot water competent person scheme, Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering, SNIPEF and TrustMark, and insurance.

Your listing will say, for example: Checked by Estiquote on 30 October 2026:

If you’re a limited company

Active company at Companies House

Limited company · VAT registered

If you’re a sole trader

Sole trader: business details checked by Estiquote

Sole trader · Not VAT registered

When sign-up opens for plumbers, have ready your company number if you’re a limited company, your waste carrier registration number if you take waste away, your Gas Safe Register number if you do gas work. Then you’ll create your account and send your profile for checks; we’ll usually reply within 5 working days.

Homeowners will choose up to 3 firms by name, and reviews will come only from real jobs, checked by a person: how quote requests and reviews will work.
