Landlord Gas Safety Certificates (CP12)

A legal requirement for every rental property, renewed annually. Same-day certificate, no chasing.

Why it matters

It’s the law, not a formality.

Landlords are legally required to have gas appliances, fittings and flues checked every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and to give tenants a copy of the certificate. It’s not optional, and letting it lapse can mean a criminal offence, invalid insurance, and real risk to your tenants.

  • Legally required annually for every rental property
  • A copy must be given to tenants within 28 days
  • Often required by mortgage lenders and insurers too
  • Protects your tenants and your liability as a landlord

What’s included

A full check, properly documented.

Every gas appliance checked

Boiler, cooker, fire — anything on the gas supply, tested to Gas Safe standard.

Flue & ventilation check

Confirms safe operation and correct ventilation.

Certificate same day

Issued and emailed to you on the day of the visit.

Excellent. Gavin provided a clear and competitive quote, arrived on time on the due date and delivered an excellent service. All plumbing works were superb, with a neat and tidy approach to the work and a clean space after completion. I know finding a good plumber is hard – Gavin was great!

Gavin has been servicing my gas boiler since he had to replace it's 38 year old predecessor, after I called him out to attempt to get it working. I now have to protect the 10 year warranty with an annual service including a filter change. Gavin offers a very reliable service, with a reminder and invitation to book a time slot to maintain the service history. I am always happy with the service offered and Gavin is a very friendly engineer.

I used GH Heating services to install a new oil boiler, and was very satisfied with the service. I dealt with Gavin who was professional, courteous, and quick to respond to any questions. The installation was conducted within the expected timeframe, and the site was left in a clean and tidy condition. The new boiler is working as expected, and a warranty has been arranged with Gavin for 5 years to handle any product issues that may occur.

Common questions

What landlords ask about certificates.

How often do I need a CP12?

Every 12 months, without exception, for as long as the property is let with gas appliances.

What happens if a check fails?

We’ll tell you exactly what needs fixing and quote it separately — the certificate is issued once the property is safe.

Do I need to be present?

No — as long as we can access the property and any gas appliances, the tenant or a keyholder is fine.

Can you manage certificates across several properties?

Yes — tell us about your portfolio and we can help keep renewal dates on track so nothing lapses.

How quickly do I get the certificate?

Same day as the visit, emailed to you directly.
