If something goes wrong, a WIAPS Approved Contractor will be required to put right any work which contravenes the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations and Scottish Water Byelaws. Each WIAPS Approved business is also required to hold public liability insurance of at least £2m. Without this cover, plumbing businesses cannot become a member of WIAPS.
WIAPS has a customer complaints process, which seeks to address any shortfall in technical compliance. Please note that the complaints process only covers technical compliance and not other concerns, such as the price charged.
