Cover For Landlords

It is a legal requirement that landlords must provide essential documents for rental properties that use gas appliances. This is to ensure that all appliances in the property are safe. These certificates are also important for a number of reasons, including:

  • Annual Inspections: Landlords must have a gas safety inspection conducted annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
  • Record Keeping: Landlords must keep records of the gas safety check for at least two years and provide a copy of the certificate to tenants within 28 days of the inspection.
  • New Tenants: New tenants must receive a copy of the current gas safety certificate before moving in.
  • Maintenance & Repairs: Landlords are responsible for ensuring gas appliances and flues are maintained in a safe condition and promptly repairing any faults identified.

We can cover all aspects of the gas safety inspection, including all repairs and maintenance needed.

Our Gas Safety Certificate Inspections Cover:

  • Appliance Safety Check: Ensures each gas appliance is safe to use and properly set up.
  • Flue and Ventilation Check: Ensures that flues and chimneys are unobstructed and provide a safe outlet for gases.
  • Gas Tightness Test: Confirms there are no gas leaks in the system.
  • Safety Device Checks: Verifies that safety devices like cut-off switches function properly.
  • Installation Inspection: Reviews the installation of gas appliances to ensure they are secure and stable.

Landlord Responsibilities For Gas Safety

As a landlord, you must ensure your rental properties are safe by arranging a gas safety check every 12 months with a Gas Safe registered engineer. A copy of the certificate must be given to tenants within 28 days, and new tenants should receive it before moving in. You are also required to keep certificates for at least two years and make sure boilers, cookers, fires and flues are kept in safe working order, with any faults repaired quickly. Whether you manage one property or several, each must meet these requirements.
