What Is a Gas Safety Certificate and Why It Matters
A Gas Safety Certificate, also known as a CP12 certificate, is an official record confirming that your gas appliances, pipework, and flues have been inspected by a qualified Gas Safe engineer and are operating safely.\This inspection isn’t just a formality — it’s a crucial part of keeping your property safe from risks such as gas leaks or carbon monoxide exposure. During the visit, our Basildon engineers check each appliance carefully, ensuring it’s running efficiently, correctly ventilated, and free from leaks or faults.
For landlords, this isn’t just good practice — it’s the law under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. Every rental property with gas appliances must have a valid Gas Safety Certificate renewed every 12 months. A copy must be provided to tenants within 28 days of the inspection, and landlords must keep their own copy for two years.
Homeowners aren’t legally required to have one each year, but we strongly recommend it. Annual safety checks give peace of mind that your boiler, cooker, and any other gas appliances are in perfect working order and won’t cause dangerous issues down the line.
