Landlord gas safety certificates in Kenilworth. CP12 inspections on rented houses, flats and HMOs, with the certificate sent the same day and anything found explained plainly.
Kenilworth rental stock is more varied than people expect. There are Victorian and Edwardian houses around the town centre and Abbey End, a lot of 1930s semis on the Coventry side, post-war housing on the estates, and newer apartments near the station. The age of the property changes what the check actually finds: older houses tend to throw up ventilation and flue issues, while newer flats are usually a straightforward check on a modern combi.
The inspection covers every gas appliance, the pipework and the meter: gas tightness, burner pressure and operation, ventilation, flue performance and the safety devices on each appliance. Anything found is recorded on the certificate as immediately dangerous, at risk or not to current standards, and each of those means something different for what you have to do next.
Where something does need attention, you get told what it is, what it affects and what it takes to put right, before any work happens. Most of what turns up on a landlord check is small - a capped appliance, a ventilation grille that has been painted over, a flue seal - and it is better found in an annual check than by a tenant in January.
Kenilworth is five miles from Coventry, so it is a normal part of the working week rather than a special trip, and certificates can usually be fitted around a tenant's working day.
The CP12 sent electronically once the check is done, ready to pass to the tenant or the agent.
Boiler, fire, hob and any other gas appliance, plus the pipework, the meter and the ventilation.
Immediately dangerous, at risk, or not to current standards - and what each one means for you as the landlord.
Booked around the tenant where we can, with a time window rather than an all-day wait.
Several properties can be checked in the same visit to the area, and HMO communal appliances are covered.
Anything needing work is priced on its own so you can decide, rather than being bundled into the check.
Every twelve months. The certificate goes to the tenant within 28 days, and to a new tenant before they move in.
If something is immediately dangerous it is disconnected with your permission and you are told straight away. At risk items are recorded and should be dealt with quickly. You get the options either way.
The duty applies while it is let. It is still worth checking before a new tenancy starts, because that is when the certificate has to exist.
No. The check is a safety inspection for the certificate. A service is cleaning and maintaining the appliance so it keeps working. They are often done on the same visit, and it is cheaper that way.
Yes - portfolios in and around Kenilworth are usually easier to do in a block, and it saves everybody time.
