Landlord’s responsibility – gas safety inspection

Above all, it is a legal requirement for the landlord to have gas works, and a gas safety record completed and signed in full.

For any reason, if  landlords fail to satisfy the legal requirements for gas safety, they are responsible for serious charges and criminal prosecution.

Furthermore, if there is any injury due to a failure on the landlord’s part to secure a correct gas certificate / record then the criminal court can enforce extensive fines.

To clarify, if a death occurs as a result of landlord negligence through gas safety, the landlord can be charged with manslaughter.

Do I need a gas certificate?

A gas safety record is proof that your appliances have been checked for safety. Therefore, from a legal standpoint, it is essential to keep records of important checks like this. You will have evidence that you were ensured it’s safety and performance. Most importantly, it’s proof that your gas appliances are safe to use.

If you’re a homeowner

A Gas Safety Record isn’t required by law. All of your gas appliances should still be checked and serviced once a year by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

If you’re a landlord

Every year, you are required by law to have a gas safety inspection. This must be done on all gas appliances and installations in each of the properties that you own.

This is a requirement of the 1998 regulations concerning gas safety (installation and use). But if the tenant owns an appliance, for example, a cooker, the landlord is not legally liable for checks.

The engineer will supply a gas safety record to the landlord (previously known as a certificate or a CP12).

If you’re a tenant

A gas safety record must be provided to you by your landlord. They must be made available to each tenant within 28 days.
