A Gas Safe Certificate, also known as a CP12 certificate, is an official document issued by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer. It verifies that gas appliances, such as boilers, cookers, and fires, within a property are safe to use and comply with regulations.
Landlords are legally required to obtain a Gas Safe Certificate for each of their rental properties every 12 months. Homeowners are not legally required to have one, but it is highly recommended to ensure the safety of their household. At minimum, we’d suggest an annual boiler service.
A Gas Safe Certificate covers a thorough inspection of all gas appliances within a property, including checking for gas leaks, ensuring proper ventilation, and assessing the overall safety of the system.
A Gas Safe Certificate is valid for 12 months. Landlords are required to renew the certificate annually to maintain compliance with legal regulations.
Failure to obtain a Gas Safe Certificate when required can result in fines, legal action, and, most importantly, endangerment of occupants due to potential gas leaks or faulty appliances.
The cost of a Gas Safe Certificate varies depending on factors such as the number of gas appliances, the type of gas appliances & the location of the property. Our rates for a gas safety inspection start at £65.00+VAT
