Gas Safety Checks & Certificates | Same Day Response

Landlord Gas Safety services

As a landlord, it’s your legal responsibility to ensure your gas appliances are safe to use to protect tenants from health and risks like fires, explosions and carbon monoxide poisoning. Therefore, you must provide a Gas Safe Certificate for all the gas appliances within your rental property. Failure to do so may result in fines of £6,000 per item and/or 6 months imprisonment.**

What's included in the Gas Safety check?

At Pimlico Plumbers, we have over 60 qualified Gas Safe Registered engineers stationed throughout London, ready to perform Gas Safety inspections and issue Gas Safety reports. Our inspections include:

  • Checking each gas appliance is safely positioned.
  • Ensuring any flue or chimney that serves the appliance is installed safely and works efficiently.
  • Completing a flue combustion test to ensure the appliance is burning correctly and not producing carbon monoxide.
  • Checking the appliance has the appropriate air supply and ventilation.
  • Checking that appliances and controls are operating safely and correctly.
  • Checking that all safety devices are working.
  • Testing the rate of gas consumption, or the working gas pressure, to ensure the appliance is operating correctly. Adjustments will be made where necessary.
  • Visually inspecting the appliance to check for corrosion and leaks.
  • Checking the electrical connection.

Gas Safety Certificate

Once our engineers have conducted their gas safety inspection, they will issue you with a Gas Safety Certificate – otherwise known as a Gas Safety Report. The report includes:

  • A description and location for each appliance checked
  • An explanation of the checks that have been performed
  • An outline of any remedial work required or completed
  • Confirmation that the appliance(s) meet the correct safety standard
  • When the appliance(s) will need to be re-serviced.

If you are a landlord of a tenanted residential or commercial property, you are legally required to have your gas appliances inspected and your Gas Safety Certificate renewed annually. Whilst this is not a legal requirement for homeowners, annually servicing your gas appliances is recommended to ensure the safety of your property and those who reside there.

At Pimlico Plumbers, we perform Gas Safety checks across domestic and commercial properties. As such, we provide the following Gas Safety Certificates:

  • CP12 – Homeowner / Landlord Gas Safety Record
  • CP17 – Gas Installation Safety Report (non-domestic)
  • CP42 – Commercial Catering Inspection Record

Gas Safety FAQs

Unlike landlords, homeowners aren’t legally required to have a Gas Safety Certificate. However, boiler installations must be performed by a Gas Safe Engineer.

Gas Safety Certificates – also known as Gas Safety Reports or CP12s – are valid for 12 months. Landlords are required to have their gas appliances checked annually before their certificate expires.

A Gas Safety Record is a document that details any work performed by your Gas Safe Engineer whilst at your property. It is a legal requirement to receive a Gas Safety Record from your engineer if you are a landlord. However, the document may vary depending on whether you’ve had an appliance serviced or safety checked.

Only Gas Safe Registered engineers can perform Gas Safety inspections. At Pimlico Plumbers, all our gas engineers are fully accredited, but you can check the validity of our engineer via the Gas Safe Register.
