What Is a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12)?

A Gas Safety Certificate, also known as a CP12, is an official document that confirms your gas appliances, flues, and pipework are safe to use. It’s issued only after a full inspection carried out by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer.

Our engineers in Harlow conduct a complete safety check of your property’s gas system, including:

  • Boilers, gas fires, ovens and cookers
  • Flues, chimneys and ventilation
  • Gas pipework and pressure tests
  • Combustion and carbon monoxide levels

Once the inspection is complete and your system is confirmed safe, we’ll issue your gas safety certificate (CP12) the same day – digitally or in printed form.
If we find any issues, we’ll explain everything clearly, provide a transparent quote for repairs, and ensure your property becomes fully compliant as quickly as possible.

Why Gas Safety Certificates Matter in Harlow

Living or letting property in Harlow means staying compliant with The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, which require landlords to have gas appliances checked annually.

But legal compliance isn’t the only reason. Here’s why it matters:

For Landlords

As a landlord in Harlow, you must ensure all gas appliances in your rented properties are inspected every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer. You’re legally obliged to provide tenants with a copy of the gas safety certificate within 28 days of inspection.
Failing to comply can result in hefty fines and legal action – but with our help, it’s easy to stay covered.

For Homeowners

Even if you’re not renting, regular gas inspections give you peace of mind. Carbon monoxide leaks are invisible and odourless – but deadly. A quick annual check by our Harlow engineers keeps your family and home safe.

For Letting Agents & Property Managers

We work closely with letting agencies across Harlow to manage certificates for multiple properties efficiently. We can schedule inspections, track renewal dates and deliver certificates directly to your inbox – saving you time and paperwork.

FAQs

No, if you live in the property and you are not a landlord then you are not legally obliged to obtain a “gas safety certificate” for yourself in the same way a letting landlord would. However, it is highly recommended from a safety, insurance and peace of mind standpoint that you still arrange an annual check by a fully registered engineer in the Harlow area.

When someone in Harlow searches for “gas certificate near me in Harlow”, they are usually seeking a qualified engineer who can carry out a gas safety inspection in the local Harlow / Essex area, and then issue a certificate (often called a CP12) for their property. The key is local availability, Gas Safe registration, and a prompt turnaround. Being able to say “We cover Harlow and surrounding areas” helps the business show up in local search.

For many standard houses or flats in the Harlow area with one boiler plus a couple of gas-appliances (eg cooker, fire), the inspection often takes around 30-60 minutes. If there are more appliances, older pipework, multiple flues or a large house in Harlow, it may take a little longer. The key for homeowners/landlords is to plan some time for access and ensure all appliances are visible and accessible.

If the engineer finds a fault, they will mark the appliance / installation condition appropriately—potentially with a “Not safe to use” tag if the fault is serious. They will issue the certificate but it will show that the system failed or requires urgent repair. In a Harlow letting scenario, the landlord must take action to repair or remove the unsafe appliance before letting or continuing use. If you are a homeowner, you should arrange the repair promptly to keep the home safe.

As a landlord (or letting agent) in Harlow, you must arrange the inspection annually and give your tenant reasonable notice. Typically, you give at least 24 hours written notice (or as agreed in the tenancy) for access. If the tenant blocks access repeatedly, you should document your attempts and may need legal advice — local Harlow landlords often include an access clause in the tenancy agreement.

Yes — legally, you in England (and thus Harlow) can have the inspection done up to two months before the expiry of the current certificate and still retain the original expiry for the next year. For example, if your present certificate expires 31 March 2025, you could do the inspection in late January 2025 and the new certificate would still expire 31 March 2026.

Generally no — for letting properties in Harlow the landlord’s legal duty covers gas appliances, pipework and flues that the landlord supplies. If a tenant brings in their own appliance, the landlord is not legally required to inspect that appliance, though the landlord remains responsible for the installation pipework and flue (if connected).

You should keep the gas safety certificate (record) for at least two years. Many Harlow landlords keep them for longer, as it helps with audits, letting management, insurance and resale of properties.

While the main legal duties for carbon-monoxide alarms fall on landlords (for certain appliances) there is wise practice for all homeowners in Harlow to install alarms where fuel-burning appliances exist. The certificate inspection won’t usually include the alarm check, so you’ll want to ensure you have a suitable CO detector in rooms with gas boilers or fires.

It’s wise to book your inspection several weeks in advance — especially in Harlow and the wider Essex area when demand is higher (for example, before winter). Booking early helps ensure you get a convenient slot, minimise disruption to tenants/managers, and avoid rush charges. Many local firms servicing Harlow will confirm date, time and cost in advance.

No — you must use an engineer who is fully registered with the Gas Safe Register (or relevant national body). Always ask to see their ID card, registration number and ensure they are authorised to inspect the appliances you have. Using an un-registered engineer may invalidate your certificate and risk non-compliance.

A boiler service is a detailed check of the boiler’s performance, efficiency, wear, and includes cleaning, parts replacement etc. A gas safety inspection (for the certificate) is primarily a safety check of the boiler, appliances, flues, ventilation and pipework to ensure they meet legal safety standards. Many Harlow service companies can combine both in one visit, but you should clarify what’s included when you book.
