WHAT DOES A PLUMBER NEED TO BECOME WIAPS APPROVED?

Anyone who wants to become a WIAPS Approved Plumber or a Sectored Installer, must be properly qualified:

• hold a recognised qualification to carry out the type work they are undertaking;
  
• hold a recognised Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations and Scottish Water Byelaws qualification
  

In addition the company that employs the installer must also hold appropriate insurance. This also applies to sole traders.
