Landlord gas safety certificates in Foleshill, Coventry. Annual CP12 checks on rented terraces, flats and HMOs, with the record sent the same day.
What slows landlords down here is rarely the check itself. It is access: tenants at work, shared front doors, and appliances in three different flats behind one street number. Booking several properties into one visit is usually the fix, and for a HMO it is worth knowing in advance which appliances are in the communal parts and which are in the lets.
The check covers the boiler, the fire, the hob and anything else burning gas: gas tightness, burner pressure, ventilation, flue performance and safety devices. If something fails, you get told what failed and what it needs, not a vague "it needs work". Where an appliance is unsafe it is disconnected and labelled, which is the part of the job nobody enjoys and everybody needs. If you smell gas, leave the house, do not touch switches and ring the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999 from outside.
The check includes the fire, the hob and the cooker. A record that lists only the boiler is not a complete gas safety record for the property.
Landlords with two or three doors in Foleshill or Edgwick can usually have them all done in one run, which saves the second call-out.
Communal appliances and each let checked, with the record covering the whole property so it stands up at a licence inspection.
The CP12 goes to you electronically the same day, so you can pass the tenant their copy inside the 28 days the rules allow.
If an appliance fails you get the reason, the classification, and what it would take to put right, before any work is agreed.
A boiler service on the same visit costs less than two separate visits, and a serviced boiler fails the next check less often.
Every twelve months, on every gas appliance and flue, and the tenant must get a copy of the record within 28 days. New tenants should get one at the start of the tenancy.
No. The safety check says the appliance is safe to use. A service cleans and tests it so it keeps running well. Most landlords have both done at the same visit.
Keep a written record of every attempt: letters, texts and visits. Landlords are expected to show they took all reasonable steps, and a documented trail is what protects you.
Yes, and it is the easiest time to do it. An empty property means no access problems and any repair can be done before the new tenant moves in.
It is classified, disconnected with your permission and labelled so nobody uses it. You get the paperwork explaining why and what it needs.
Yes: Foleshill, Edgwick, Longford, Bell Green and Radford. Several properties on one round is what we are set up for.
