About this service

What is a Gas Safety Certificate? (Landlord requirements explained)

A Gas Safety Certificate, also known as a CP12, is the record produced after a Gas Safe registered engineer inspects all gas appliances, pipework, and flues in a property. The engineer checks boilers, cookers, gas fires, and any other gas-burning appliance to confirm they are operating safely and not leaking carbon monoxide or other dangerous gases.

Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, landlords must arrange a gas safety check every 12 months for all rental properties with gas appliances. We carry out gas safety checks across London and surrounding areas for landlords, agents, and homeowners. Book alongside your EPC, EICR, or other compliance services in a single visit.

It's the law. Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, landlords must have a valid gas safety check every 12 months. Fines are unlimited and it is a criminal offence.
