If you let a property with a gas supply in the Burnley area, an annual gas safety certificate is a legal requirement. The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 require landlords to have all gas appliances, flues, and pipework inspected every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Platinum Heating issues CP12 certificates to landlords across Burnley, Padiham, Nelson, Colne, Accrington and the surrounding area, with same or next day availability in most cases.
The certificate must be issued by a Gas Safe registered engineer and renewed every 12 months. You are required to provide a copy to existing tenants within 28 days of the inspection, and to new tenants before they move in. Records must be kept for a minimum of two years. Failure to hold a valid certificate can result in significant fines and, in the event of a gas-related incident, potential prosecution.
Keeping your rental property compliant should be simple, clear and properly documented. We make the CP12 process straightforward for landlords, letting agents and tenants across Burnley and East Lancashire.
Get in touch to arrange a convenient appointment for your landlord gas safety check. We can work directly with you, your tenant or your letting agent to make access as easy as possible.
David will inspect the gas appliances, flues, ventilation, pipework and safety devices at the property. This can include the boiler, gas fire, hob or cooker where fitted.
We’ll carry out the required checks on pressure, flow rates, appliance operation, flues, ventilation and emergency cut-offs to make sure everything is working safely.
If anything fails the inspection or needs attention, we’ll explain the issue clearly and advise on the safest next step. Any repair work will be quoted before it goes ahead.
Once the inspection is complete and the property passes, we’ll issue your landlord gas safety certificate. This gives you the documentation you need for your records and for your tenant.
A CP12 is the formal record issued after a successful annual gas safety inspection. It confirms that all gas appliances, flues and pipework in the property have been checked and are safe to use.
Every 12 months without exception.
The engineer checks all gas appliances, inspects flues and ventilation, tests pipework for leaks, checks pressure and flow rates, and verifies all safety devices. A standard property takes around 45 to 60 minutes.
