Watersafe Plumber?

Hi,

 

Did other people get asked to give details of their "Watersafe" plumber before getting a water connection.

 

I and my builder had never heard of it and we didn't have to do this for my current house.

 

Seems like yet another piece of waste of time bureaucracy. No doubt a nice earner for the good people at Watersafe.

Who is asking you for this?

 

That appears to be an English thing, asking for English plumbers, so point out to them that you are not in England so it does not apply to you.

I think this is a subscription register that plumbers pay to be in. Not statutory.

I searched their website for evidence of training and standards but cant see any mention.

 

I can see that some standards are desirable and not all 'plumbers' are really plumbers. 

 

I suggest you just write n/a in the box.
