Hi, I have worked as a heating engineer for 9 years for a housing association where we have to fill out 4 forms every time we install a boiler. The reason for this post Is I want to know what I need to buy and what I need to fill out to operate correctly as i have just got my own gas safe registration for my side jobs and just wanted to clarify what paperwork I need to issue for the jobs I do.

Ive got a pad for landlord/home owner gas safety record, which I will fill in when I do gas safe checks.
do I need to issue one of these when I install a boiler? Or just fill out the benchmark and notify gas safe online?

Also, if I do a repair will I need to fill out one of these ?

Thanks
 
Installs I only do the benchmark.
Do not bother for repairs, just use invoice book, and note down what has been done.
If you get the pads from BES Ltd, they cover the lot
 
Always use the Landlord/Homes owner gas safety certificate as well as the Benchmark. It covers your arse for the things not listed on the Benchmark. And of course notify GSR for the BR cert.
 
So apart from the landlord/ home owner pad ive already got what other paperwork will I need to buy?
 
as Reg man pointed out LL/home owner cert must always be issued,and as lame said you will also need a warning notice pad


where in a benchmark does it cover tightness testing,equipotential bonding or tests carried out? your arse would not touch the floor if there was a incident ,and the court would grill you for not following procedure
 
Gas man are you saying you must fill out paperwork saying you have done a TT? I know it's mandatory to do a TT on a new install but is it mandatory to write it down somewhere, and. You don't have to write down your NCS's although it's good practice and easier to inform responsible person if it's a landlord by putting it on the paperwork somewhere but not mandatory
 
They would have to prove you were not following industry standards. A bit of paper means nothing. You note defects as you find them and that's it. Home owner pad . Service pads, blah blah blah.

no kirk not saying its mandatory to fill out paperwork to say you have done a soundness, but we both know if something goes wrong last person in is in the brown stuff,all i am trying to impart is cover your arse
