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.

Trade chapters

Registration checks, written quotes and call-out notes — we do not publish invented job prices.

  • Plumbers and heating — Boilers, leaks and heating — Gas Safe, quotes, and who to call.
  • Electricians — Rewires, consumer units and certificates — what competence looks like.
  • Roofers and builders — Extensions, roofs and general building — scope, quotes and weather.
  • Locksmiths — Lockouts, locks and security — call-out honesty before a panic fee.
  • Tilers — Floor and wall tiling — prep, adhesives and what a day rate covers.
  • Tree surgeons and gardeners — Tree work, hedges and landscaping — insurance and season sense.
  • Skip hire and waste — Skips and clearance — permits, sizes and what you cannot tip.
  • Windows and double glazing — Replacement windows and doors — U-values, guarantees and sales pressure.
  • Bathrooms and kitchens — Bathroom and kitchen fitting — wet work, lead times and who owns the mess.

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.
