CP12 Landlord Gas Safety Certificate in London

A CP12 landlord gas safety certificate is a legal requirement every 12 months if you let a property with a gas appliance. We carry out landlord gas safety inspections across London with fully Gas Safe registered engineers, and issue the certificate you need for your records and for your tenants.

Book a service See pricing

The inspection covers every gas appliance, fitting and flue in the property that your landlord obligations extend to: the boiler, any gas fire, hob or gas water heater. Each is checked for safe operation, correct ventilation, and satisfactory condition. You get a certificate confirming the outcome, which you're required to give a copy of to your tenants within 28 days.

Because the certificate expires after 12 months, we can set a reminder ahead of your renewal date so a gap in compliance doesn't happen by accident — a common way landlords end up unintentionally in breach.

Landlord Gas Safety Certificate pricing depends on the number of appliances and whether it's combined with a boiler service. See our pricing page for typical UK market ranges, or ask about portfolio rates for multiple properties.

Questions

Landlord Gas Safety Certificate FAQs for London homeowners

Is a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) a legal requirement?

Yes. Landlords in England and Wales are legally required to have every gas appliance in a rented property checked annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and to give tenants a copy of the current certificate.

How long is a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate valid for?

Twelve months from the date of inspection. The next check can be carried out up to two months before the current certificate expires without losing any time from the original renewal date.

What happens if I don't have a valid certificate?

Letting a property without a current, valid Gas Safety Certificate is a breach of your legal obligations as a landlord, and can affect your ability to serve certain eviction notices. Keeping the certificate current avoids that risk entirely.

Do you give tenants a copy, or is that my responsibility?

We provide the completed certificate to you, and it's your responsibility as landlord to give a copy to existing tenants within 28 days of the check, and to any new tenant before they move in.

Can you check multiple properties in a portfolio at once?

Yes — we coordinate inspection schedules for landlords and managing agents with several properties, so renewal dates can be grouped and tracked rather than handled one at a time.
