What is a

Landlord gas safety check?

A landlord gas safety check, also known as a Gas Safety inspection or gas certificate, is a legal requirement for landlords in England and Wales. It involves an examination of all gas appliances, flues, and pipework within a rental property. The purpose of this inspection is to assess the safety and functionality of these components to minimise the risk of gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning, and other potential hazards.

What does a

Landlord gas safety check involve?

One of our professional Gas Safe registered engineers will check all gas appliances at the property to ensure that they are fitted correctly and according to manufacturer installation instructions. We inspect any flues and ventilation to ensure there are no obstructions which would stop combustion gases from being dispersed safely.

We also inspect and test any gas pipework to ensure it is fit for purpose, is gas-tight and is installed correctly. We will then electronically issue a landlord gas safety record, listing the appliances at the property, any tests carried out and any recommendations the engineer feels are appropriate.

The details will then be added to our database, and a reminder email will be sent to you at least 3 weeks before the next inspection is due.
