Understanding Your Legal Duty: Landlord Gas Safety Inspections

The law is clear: as a landlord, you must have all gas appliances, flues and pipework inspected annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This inspection results in the issuance of a CP12 certificate. This certificate confirms that the appliances are safe to use. Preferred Gas provides these vital checks, ensuring your compliance and, more importantly, the well-being of your tenants. We understand the importance of this legal requirement and strive to make the process as smooth and convenient as possible for you. We'll work with you to arrange a suitable time for the inspection, minimising disruption to your tenants.

Our Gas Safe registered engineers don't just issue certificates; they perform comprehensive tests on all gas appliances in your property. This includes boilers, gas fires, cookers and any other gas-powered equipment. We'll check for gas leaks, ensure adequate ventilation, and assess the overall condition of the appliances.
