I got my gas fitter to remove my old gas oven and cap the gas pipe. Took very little time. Cost is TBC but probably an hour of labour so ~£60 maximum. If you're in any doubt why bother trying to DIY. I haven't read the regs but assumed it had to be done by a proper gas fitter. I'll be extremely surprised if it's legit to do it DIY.

It is legal to do your own gas DIY if you are a competent person. Exactly what makes you competent isn't defined in the legislation. You only need to be trained and registered if you are working on someone else's gas.

Should there be an issue - an explosion, for example, you may have difficulties with your house insurance.
