What's involved

Landlord Gas Safety Certificate in Darlaston, step by step

The legal check, done properly

A CP12 is a legal requirement every twelve months for a let property. We check every gas appliance, not only the boiler.

Certificate the same day

Emailed on the day, so there is no gap between the inspection and the paperwork you have to hold.

Tenant contacted directly

We arrange access with the tenant so you are not chasing. It is the part that usually delays these.

Faults reported straight away

Anything unsafe is isolated and recorded, and you know within the hour rather than in a report a week later.

Tenant-owned appliances noted

A cooker or fire the tenant owns falls outside the landlord duty, but anything unsafe seen during the check is still pointed out.

Pipework and flues included

The gas pipework and flues serving the property are part of the check, whoever owns the appliances.

Rented terraces make up a big share of Darlaston housing, and each one needs its gas safety check renewed every twelve months. Tenants are contacted to arrange access, every gas appliance and flue is checked, and the record is sent over the same day so a lapsed certificate never delays a new tenancy.

Tenants in the older Darlaston terraces sometimes use a gas cooker they have brought with them. The landlord is responsible for the appliances and flues they provide, not ones a tenant owns, but the check still covers the pipework serving the whole property.

Good to know

What people ask about Landlord Gas Safety Certificate

Do I need one if the tenant never uses the gas fire?

Yes. Every gas appliance in the property must be inspected whether it is used or not. An unused fire in a Darlaston terrace is still an appliance, and leaving it off the certificate makes the certificate invalid.

When should I renew it?

Within twelve months of the last one, and you can have it done up to two months early without losing the original date. Renewing early is how landlords avoid a lapse when access goes wrong.

Can you do the service at the same time?

Yes, and most landlords do. It is one visit, one arrangement with the tenant, and it is cheaper than booking two.

Does the landlord have to check a cooker the tenant owns?

No. The duty covers appliances and flues the landlord provides. The pipework is still included, and if a tenant appliance looks unsafe during the visit, it is pointed out.

What if the tenant will not give access?

Keep a record of every attempt to arrange it. The law expects landlords to take all reasonable steps, and a written trail of offered appointments shows that you did.
