Do I need a Gas Safe engineer for central heating?

Yes, for any gas work. Always check their ID or search the [Gas Safe Register](https://www.gassaferegister.co.uk/). Read our [guide to finding a Gas Safe engineer](https://www.checkatrade.com/blog/hiring-guides/gas-engineer/).

When should I call a plumber for a clogged toilet?

Knowing when to call a plumber for a blocked toilet will depend on several factors. The most common reasons to call a plumber for a blocked toilet are: - A plunger hasn’t worked after five to ten minutes - Corrosive chemicals haven’t worked - The toilet is overflowing - The toilet won’t stop running - Your sewer drain is leaking - The blockage has been caused by a foreign object (eg. A child’s toy, electronic device, a sanitary pad or nappy etc) These problems will not be easily resolved without a plumber.

Is it better to pay a plumber hourly or per job?

That depends. - Hourly rates work well for small, flexible jobs (think leaky taps or unblocking a sink). - Fixed prices are often better for planned projects like bathroom installs or pipework replacements. - Emergency plumbing may include higher hourly rates and a call-out charge.
