Annual Gas Safety Checks
for UK Landlords

Smell Gas? Act! Call 0800 111 999
As a landlord in the UK, it’s your legal responsibility to ensure that all gas appliances, fittings, and flues in your rental property are safe and well-maintained.
  • Ensure the safety of your tenants
  • Comply with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998
  • Protect yourself against fines or legal issues
Our Gas Safe-registered engineers provide thorough inspections and issue CP12 Gas Safety Certificates, keeping you compliant with current regulations.

What’s Included in Our Gas Safety Check


When you book a gas safety check with us, we carry out a comprehensive inspection, including:
  • Checking all gas appliances for safe operation
  • Inspecting flues and ventilation
  • Testing gas pressure and pipework for leaks
  • Providing a CP12 Gas Safety Certificate on completion
  • Expert advice on repairs or improvements if required

Your Legal Responsibilities as a Landlord


As a landlord, you have a legal duty of care to ensure that all gas appliances, fittings, chimneys, and flues in your rental property are safe for your tenants to use.

Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, it is a legal requirement to have a Gas Safety Check carried out every 12 months by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer.

This regular inspection helps to:

  • Protect Your Tenants: Ensure that all gas appliances are working correctly and safely, reducing the risk of dangerous gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning, or fires.
  • Stay Compliant with the Law: Demonstrate that you’ve taken the necessary steps to meet UK gas safety regulations and fulfil your legal obligations.
  • Avoid Penalties and Legal Issues: Maintain proper records to protect yourself against fines, legal disputes, and potential prosecution.

Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) Requirements


Once the inspection is complete, you will be issued a CP12 Gas Safety Certificate, which is proof that your property meets legal safety standards.

You must:

  • Provide a copy to your tenants within 28 days of the inspection.
  • Keep records of every annual check for at least two years.
  • Ensure new tenants receive a valid certificate before they move in.

We had our boiler serviced by gaswise for the last couple of years and the service has always been great. We had Jake come over this time and he went above and beyond by sorting out a loose tap that he noticed while servicing. It may seem like a small thing but goes to show how he goes above and beyond for his customers. Thanks for your help.

Very diligent company. Installation of two commercial boilers into a large church. Thorough site surveys carried out over three visits including specialist flue manufacturer and the boiler manufacturers. Well managed installation with excellent post installation hand over and follow up.

Jack initially came to service our boiler, he was friendly, professional and did a great job. We wanted our heating system flushed, so asked for a quote. This was sent the same day and our system was flushed through on the day we wanted, all ready for the winter months by Jack & Harry. Again a friendly professional manner, and our home left clean & tidy.

We just moved in to our new property on Friday, we reported the taps not working in the kitchen on Thursday, Ryan came around, identified the problem, and changed the taps. Great, professional service, Ryan was very friendly and professional. Thank you.

Ryan completed a boiler replacement and a Landlords certificate for us on our rental property. He was friendly and efficient, and we really appreciate the effort he went to, to ensure we were happy with the installation and that we understood how to use it before he left. Thanks
