Landlord Gas Safety Certificates in London
It is a legal requirement to ensure that all Gas appliances provided for your tenants are safe.
Our London based Gas Safe Registered Engineers will carry out a Landlord Gas Safety inspection and issue a certificate.
Safety Certificates for Landlords
As a Landlord, you are responsible for the safety of your tenants. The Gas Safety Installation and Use Regulations 1998 outline what Landlords must do to ensure that all appliances, fittings, chimney/flutes provided to tenants are safe. Under UK law, here are your three main responsibilities.
Maintenance
All gas pipework, appliances and chimneys or flues must be maintained and in a safe condition. Gas appliances must be serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. If this is not available, servicing is required every 12 months, unless advised otherwise by a Gas Safe Registered Engineer.
Gas Safety Checks
One of your duties as a landlord is to ensure that gas appliances and flues must undergo annual gas safety checks by a registered gas safe engineer. You will also need to ensure that your tenants know where and how to turn off the gas supply and what to do in an emergency.
Gas Safety Check Record
Within 28 days of completion, you should provide your existing tenants with a record of the Annual Gas Safety Check. For new tenants, this should be provided upon the start of the tenancy. Here is an example of a Landlord’s Gas Safety Record. You’ll need to make copies of the record for at least 2 years.

Carbon Monoxide Alarm Fitting
Carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas. Landlords should install a carbon monoxide alarm in every room containing a gas fuel-burning device or appliance. Our engineers can supply and install a recommended carbon monoxide (CO) detector in your home so that you’ll be alerted to carbon monoxide (CO) leaks. This can also be supplied and installed when we service your gas appliance.
Boiler Fitting
We offer annual boiler servicing to ensure that boilers within properties are first and foremost operating safely as well as running efficiently. The process of servicing a boiler can expose any issues or potential problems that can be repaired or rectified to keep the household user and property safe. This is to prolong the life of the boiler.
