What the Law Requires of Landlords

Landlords must have every gas appliance and flue in a rented property checked each year by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and must give the tenant a copy of the record within 28 days. New tenants get a copy at the start of the tenancy. Records must be kept for two years.

More Information

What Gets Checked

We check each appliance is burning correctly and is stable and suitable for the room, inspect flues and ventilation, test the pipework for tightness, and confirm safety devices work. Anything unsafe is reported and, with permission, made safe on the spot.

Booking Around Tenants

Access is usually the hard part, so we arrange appointments directly with tenants where you prefer, including evenings. Certificates are issued the same day and emailed to you and the agent. If you manage several properties, we can group visits to keep the diary simple.

About us

We carry out gas safety checks for private landlords, letting agents and a number of local property managers. After 20 years the paperwork side is routine, which matters when a certificate has to be with an agent before a tenancy starts. Renewal reminders go out automatically so nothing lapses.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do I need a gas safety certificate?

Every twelve months for rented properties. You can have the check done up to two months before the current one expires without losing those months, so the renewal date stays the same. We send reminders in advance to keep landlords inside the deadline.

Do homeowners need a gas safety certificate?

There is no legal requirement for owner occupiers, only for landlords. Many homeowners still have a check done for peace of mind, or before selling a property. An annual boiler service covers similar ground for a single appliance, and we can do both together.

What happens if an appliance fails the check?

We classify it and explain what it means. Immediately dangerous appliances are disconnected with your permission and reported. At risk appliances are also turned off until repaired. We quote for the repair free, and once the work is done the certificate can be issued.
