Signs you need gas safety checks & landlord certificates
You are a landlord and your certificate is due
Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, landlords must have a gas safety check carried out every 12 months and hold a valid CP12 certificate. Failing to do so is a criminal offence.
You have new tenants moving in
A gas safety certificate must be provided to new tenants before they move in. If your previous certificate has expired, a new check is required before the tenancy starts.
You have had a new gas appliance installed
Any new gas appliance in a rental property should be safety checked and included on the landlord gas safety record. We issue an updated certificate after installation.
Tenants report a gas smell or faulty appliance
If a tenant reports a gas smell, yellow flame or faulty appliance, a gas safety check is needed immediately to protect your tenants and your legal position as a landlord.
Your letting agent requests an up to date CP12
Most letting agents in the Fordingbridge area require a valid gas safety certificate before they can manage or list a rental property. We provide the documentation they need.

What affects the cost of gas safety checks & landlord certificates
We believe in transparent pricing. Here are the factors that influence the cost of your job.
Number of appliances
The cost is based on the number of gas appliances in the property. A single boiler is the standard price, with a small additional charge for each extra appliance such as a gas fire or cooker.
Property type
A single flat with one boiler is straightforward. Houses with multiple gas appliances, such as a boiler, gas fire and cooker, take longer and cost slightly more.
Additional visits
If a tenant is not available for the first appointment, a second visit may be needed. We coordinate with landlords and letting agents to minimise the chance of a missed appointment.
Remedial work
If an appliance fails the safety check, it must be disconnected or repaired before the certificate can be issued. We provide a clear quote for any remedial work needed.
Every job is different, so we always provide a free, no obligation quote before any work begins. Call us on 07391 779 712 or fill in our contact form to arrange your estimate.
