Know Wales

Wales

Home and trades

Know the registration. Know the quote. Know what the certificate should say.
Gas Safe registration is required before gas or boiler work. Electrical jobs should leave an EIC or EICR certificate. Get scope and price in writing before work starts.

Pick a town, then the job — plumbing, electrics, roofing, skips and more. Each chapter explains what to check before anyone crosses the threshold.

Registration checks, written quotes and call-out notes — we do not publish invented job prices.

Unlike food and stay, there is no single Wales-wide register we can bulk-query for every trade. Featured towns get hand-researched shortlists; other towns are filled from public registers and OpenStreetMap where we can — real names, not recommendations.
