What the law actually requires
If you let a property in England, the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 require you to have every gas appliance and flue checked for safety every twelve months by a Gas Safe registered engineer, keep a record of it, and give a copy to your tenant within 28 days of the check. New tenants must have a copy before they move in, and you have to keep records for two years.
It is one of the few landlord obligations with real teeth. Letting without a valid certificate is a criminal offence, and it also blocks a Section 21 notice, which catches a lot of landlords out at exactly the wrong moment.
What we check
Every gas appliance in the property gets checked for gas tightness, correct operating pressure and heat input, adequate ventilation, satisfactory flue performance, and that all safety devices work. We also inspect the pipework and the meter installation. Anything that fails is classified properly, and if something is immediately dangerous we will explain it clearly and, where required, disconnect it with your permission.
Making it easy
Give us the tenant's number and we will arrange access with them directly rather than bouncing messages through you. If you have got several properties in West London we will group them into as few visits as possible, which keeps the cost down and the admin simple. We will also flag when each certificate is due the following year.

Common questions
How much is a CP12?
Tell us the postcode and how many gas appliances are in the property and we will give you the price over the phone. Multiple properties booked together work out cheaper per certificate.
How quickly do I get the certificate?
Same day. It is emailed as a PDF as soon as the check is finished, so you can forward it to your tenant straight away.
Can you combine it with a boiler service?
Yes, and most landlords do. A safety check is not the same thing as a service, and doing both in one visit costs less than two separate ones and keeps the boiler warranty valid.
What if an appliance fails?
We classify it according to the Gas Industry Unsafe Situations Procedure, explain what it means in plain terms, and quote for the repair separately. You are under no obligation to use us for the fix.
Do you deal with the tenant directly?
Yes, if you would like us to. Give us the contact details and we will arrange a time that works for them.
Do I need one for a property with no gas?
No. If there is no gas supply and no gas appliances, there is nothing to certify.
