Plumbing Compliance — Gas Safe, Water Regulations & EPA RRP Tracking
Never miss a Gas Safe annual renewal, G3 hot water certification, or EPA lead paint licence — automated alerts keep every plumber compliant.
14-day free trial · No credit card required
Plumbing and heating engineers carry some of the most safety-critical certifications in the trades — a lapsed Gas Safe registration isn't just a fine risk, it's a criminal offence. Meanwhile in the US, EPA RRP lead paint rules catch renovation plumbers off guard. Certivenza tracks every renewal so your engineers never work outside their competence.

The compliance challenges plumbing & heating businesses face
Without a dedicated system, lapsed certifications and missed renewals put your business at risk.
Gas Safe registration lapses without warning
Gas Safe registration must be renewed annually, and the notice goes to the individual engineer, not the business. One lapsed engineer billing clients for gas work creates serious criminal liability for the company director.
G3 unvented cylinder work requires specific competence
Any plumber working on unvented hot water systems must hold a current G3 qualification. Many small businesses assume the qualification is permanent and don't track when reviews are due.
EPA RRP certification catches US plumbers off guard
Plumbers renovating pre-1978 homes must hold EPA RRP Lead Renovator certification. Many plumbers are unaware of the requirement, and fines can reach $37,500 per day per violation.
Confined space entry certification for drainage work
Drainage and sewer plumbers regularly enter confined spaces. OSHA requires annual permit-required confined space training, but most small plumbing businesses track this informally or not at all.

Frequently asked questions
Can Certivenza alert me before each engineer's Gas Safe registration expires?
Yes. Set up alerts at 30, 14, 7, and 1 day before expiry. The engineer gets notified directly, and you as the account admin get copied in at 14 and 7 days so you can follow up if they haven't renewed.
We have engineers working in multiple Gas Safe categories — how do we track those?
Create a separate document type per Gas Safe category (e.g. 'Gas Safe — Domestic Natural Gas', 'Gas Safe — LPG'). Assign each category to the engineers who hold it. Expiry dates can differ per category per engineer.
How do I know if a plumber is cleared to work on a lead paint renovation job?
Add EPA RRP as a required document type for roles that involve renovation work. The Cleared-to-Work flag automatically goes red if the certificate is missing or expired, preventing the assignment before it happens.
Can workers upload their own Gas Safe renewal certificate?
Yes. Workers access the self-service portal, upload their new Gas Safe card, and you approve it from the pending review queue. The expiry date is updated and Cleared-to-Work status recalculated immediately.
