Why Have a Gas Safety Check?

A gas safety check helps reduce risk and ensures your property remains compliant with gas safety regulations. Faulty or poorly maintained gas appliances can leak gas or produce carbon monoxide, which can pose serious health risks if left undetected.

A Gas Safety Certificate confirms that gas appliances and flues within the property have been inspected by a qualified engineer and were operating safely at the time of the inspection.

Always use a Gas Safe Registered engineer

Gas Safe registration is the official UK register for engineers legally permitted to work on gas appliances. By law, anyone carrying out gas work must be Gas Safe registered and qualified for the specific appliance they are inspecting.

Heppelthwaite – The Red Van Plumbers are fully Gas Safe registered.

Gas Safe Registration Number: 11304

Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12)

If you rent out a property, you are legally required to arrange an annual gas safety inspection on relevant gas appliances and flues.

Following the inspection, a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) is issued to confirm the results of the checks carried out.

During the inspection our engineers examine the relevant appliances and flues, confirm whether they are operating safely and issue the certificate once the inspection is complete. If any issues are identified, we explain them clearly and outline the options available.

We can also provide reminder notifications to help ensure your certificate is renewed each year.

Landlord Gas Safety Requirements

If you rent out a property in the UK, you must:

β€’ Arrange a gas safety inspection every 12 months
β€’ Use a Gas Safe registered engineer
β€’ Provide tenants with a valid CP12 certificate
β€’ Keep records of the inspection

Failure to comply can lead to enforcement action, fines or prosecution under Gas Safety Regulations.

Commercial Gas Safety Certificates

Commercial properties can involve more complex gas systems and additional safety responsibilities. We provide gas safety inspections and certification for a wide range of premises including offices, retail units, hospitality venues and managed buildings.

Our engineers assess the relevant appliances and systems and provide the appropriate documentation following the inspection.

If you require commercial gas safety certificates across Buckinghamshire, Berkshire or West London, contact our team to discuss your requirements.

Who Needs a Gas Safety Certificate?

Gas safety certificates may be required or recommended in a number of situations.

βœ” Landlords must arrange annual gas safety inspections for rental properties and provide tenants with a valid certificate.

βœ” Businesses and commercial premises may require gas safety certification as part of their safety responsibilities and compliance obligations.

βœ” Homeowners sometimes request a gas safety check when purchasing a property, installing a new appliance or simply for reassurance that existing appliances are operating safely.

What to Expect During a Gas Safety Check

A gas safety inspection follows a structured process in line with Gas Safe guidance.

We will:

  • Inspect gas appliances and flues covered by the check
  • Confirm safe operation or highlight any issues clearly
  • Issue your CP12 certificate when the inspection is complete
  • Provide reminders so you stay on track for next year

If anything fails the safety checks, we will explain what needs fixing. The exact checks may vary depending on the type of property and appliances installed.

Once the inspection is complete, the relevant certification is issued for your records.

Gas Safety Certificate and Boiler Service

Many landlords and homeowners choose to combine a boiler service with a gas safety inspection. This ensures the appliance is operating safely while also maintaining efficiency and supporting manufacturer warranty requirements.

If you would like to arrange both services during the same visit, our team can advise on the most suitable option.
