The useful short answer

There is no single price for every LPG certificate

The word "certificate" is used for different property, catering, caravan and commercial checks. The price therefore follows the real installation, appliances, access and record requested.

Use the figures on this page as starting guidance. Upkeepone confirms the actual scope and written quote after the postcode, setting and complete appliance list are checked.

LPG certificate and inspection starting prices

These figures are for straightforward enquiries and are not a universal tariff. The confirmed written quote takes precedence when the installation details differ from the assumptions below.

Requested LPG work Starting guidance Scope assumption
Cylinder, regulator and accessible pipework check only From £130 A straightforward supply check where no appliance certificate or specialist requester form is required.
One LPG appliance with certificate or report From £155 One declared appliance, accessible supply and a correctly matched engineer category during one attendance.
Additional LPG appliance on the same visit From £45 each The additional appliance can be included in the same agreed scope and checked without a separate attendance.
Static caravan, park home or mobile catering unit Usually from £155 The complete appliance list, supply arrangement, use of the unit, access and paperwork request still affect the quote.
Complex commercial or specialist LPG installation Quoted after details Appliance data, photographs, operating restrictions and requester requirements may be needed before pricing.

Important: a starting price does not promise a pass, a particular document or repairs during the same visit. The engineer records the outcome of the agreed inspection.

Why one quote differs from another

Six details can materially change the LPG certificate price

Setting and engineer category

A property, commercial kitchen, food truck, caravan and specialist installation are not interchangeable scopes.

Number and type of appliances

A single hob is different from a full catering line, boiler system or mixed-appliance installation.

LPG supply arrangement

Cylinders, regulators, hoses, changeovers, tanks and accessible pipework affect the work to be checked.

Access, parking and travel

Event compounds, caravan parks, security, keys, restricted hours and parking charges can affect attendance.

Deadline and requester wording

A venue, council, insurer, landlord or site may supply a form or wording that changes the required scope.

Faults and additional work

Parts, repairs, further investigation, remedial work and a return visit are normally priced separately.

Read the written scope

What the base quote may cover—and what usually remains separate

Confirm these items are included

  • The engineer's attendance for the agreed LPG setting
  • The declared supply arrangement and accessible pipework scope
  • Every appliance listed in the written quote
  • Checks appropriate to the agreed work and engineer categories
  • The intended record or report if the inspection outcome permits it

These items are usually separate

  • Parts, repair labour and remedial work
  • Undeclared appliances or a materially different installation
  • Additional or requester-specific paperwork outside the quote
  • Aborted access, unusual waiting time or a return visit
  • Work that requires a different engineer category or specialist equipment

Installation scope

  • Property, premises, caravan, vehicle, trailer or stall type
  • Every LPG appliance, including equipment not in routine use
  • Cylinders, tank, regulators, hoses and changeover arrangement
  • Photographs of the supply, appliance data plates and unit where useful
  • Known faults, alterations or recently fitted equipment

Attendance scope

  • Full postcode and exact site or trading location
  • Who requested the record and any supplied wording or form
  • Deadline, preferred visit window and operating restrictions
  • Parking, access, keys, security and responsible site contact
  • Previous record, inspection or repair information where available

The fee buys an inspection—not a pre-approved result

A correctly scoped appointment allows the engineer to complete the agreed work and record what is found. It does not guarantee that the installation will pass or that a venue, insurer, council, landlord or other organisation will accept a particular document.

If a safety issue or limitation is found, the engineer should explain the next step. Repair work and a return inspection may require a separate quotation.

Service coverage

Travel and availability are checked from the postcode

Upkeepone regularly prices LPG certificate enquiries in London, Essex and Kent. Hertfordshire, Surrey, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Sussex can be considered when a suitably qualified trade is available. Other UK postcodes are checked by request after the setting, supply, appliances, access and required record are known, because travel and scope can change the written quote.

Before accepting a quote

LPG certificate costs: common questions

How much does an LPG certificate cost?
Upkeepone's published starting guidance is from £130 for a straightforward cylinder, regulator and accessible pipework check where no appliance certificate is required. A visit covering one LPG appliance with a certificate or report starts from £155, with additional appliances from £45 each when they can be checked during the same attendance. The written quote depends on the full scope.
Is the £155 LPG certificate price guaranteed?
No. It is starting guidance for a straightforward one-appliance visit. The final quote can change with the setting, appliance type and number, LPG supply arrangement, access, travel, parking, deadline, requester paperwork and other site-specific requirements.
What is normally included in an LPG certificate quote?
The written quote should identify the attendance, agreed installation and appliance scope, relevant checks and the intended record or report. It should also state any assumptions or exclusions. Only the confirmed written quote controls what is included.
How much is each additional LPG appliance?
The published starting guidance is from £45 for each additional appliance when it can be checked as part of the same agreed visit. A different appliance category, undeclared equipment, extra testing time or a return visit can require a revised quote.
Are repairs included in the LPG certificate price?
Not unless the written quote specifically includes them. Parts, repair labour, further investigation, remedial work and a return inspection are normally separate. A favourable certificate or record cannot be promised before the engineer completes the agreed checks.
What happens to the fee if the LPG installation does not pass?
The inspection charge covers the engineer's attendance and the agreed work, not a guaranteed favourable outcome. Payment terms and the scope should be confirmed before booking. If faults are found, repairs or a return visit may need a separate quote.
Can travel, parking or difficult access change the price?
Yes. Distance, parking charges, event or park access, keys, security procedures, restricted trading hours and delays outside the engineer's control can affect the quote. Send those details before the appointment is confirmed.
How much is a mobile catering or CP44-type LPG inspection?
A straightforward one-appliance mobile unit may start from the published £155 guidance, but the full appliance list, catering categories, cylinder storage, regulator arrangement, unit access, organiser wording and deadline must be checked before a quote is confirmed.
How much is a landlord LPG gas safety check?
It is quoted from the property type, number and type of LPG appliances, supply arrangement, access and record required. Send the tenancy context, previous record and due date so the correct landlord route and engineer categories can be checked.
Where can Upkeepone consider LPG certificate enquiries?
LPG certificate pricing enquiries are handled regularly in London, Essex and Kent. Quotes for Hertfordshire, Surrey, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Sussex can be considered when the right LPG trade is available. For another UK postcode, send the installation setting, supply, appliance count, required paperwork and access details so travel and the inspection scope can be priced rather than assumed.
