Landlord Gas Safety Certificates in Adlington, Lancashire

Most landlords we chat with know they need a certificate, but the legal side can feel a bit heavy. Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, you have a 'Duty of Care' to ensure all gas appliances, fittings, and flues are checked every 12 months. This result is the Landlord Gas Safety Record, or what most people call the CP12. It’s a vital document that you must provide to your tenants within 28 days of the inspection. If you’re starting a new tenancy, they’ll need to see it before they even move their first box in. Our Gas Safe registered engineers (Registration No: 967977) are experts at navigating these rules, ensuring you stay fully compliant without the headache.

You might wonder what we’re actually doing when we pop round to your property in Adlington. It’s a lot more than just a quick glance at the boiler. We perform a series of rigorous checks to ensure the entire gas system is sound. This includes a 'tightness test' to check for any hidden leaks in the pipework and measuring the 'standing and working pressure' to ensure the gas flow is correct. We also look closely at the 'burner pressure' and 'gas rate' to make sure appliances aren't burning too much or too little fuel. We'll even conduct a 'flue flow test' and a 'spillage test'—essential for making sure those dangerous combustion fumes are exiting the building safely and not lingering in the living room.

Once we've finished the job, we don't make you wait around for paperwork. We provide digital certificates sent straight to your inbox as a PDF. It makes it incredibly easy for you to forward the record to your tenants or letting agents, keeping your digital filing cabinet perfectly organised.

Ever found yourself wishing you could get everything done in one visit? Many of the landlords we work with in Adlington choose to combine their CP12 inspection with a full boiler service. It’s a smart move. While the safety check confirms the appliance is safe to use, a service actually maintains the internal components, helping to prevent those annoying winter breakdowns and potentially extending the life of the boiler. If we spot a minor issue during the inspection—perhaps a radiator that needs a bit of attention or a tap that’s seen better days—we can often sort it out then and there. From unvented hot water cylinder installations to general plumbing repairs, we're a one-stop shop for your property maintenance needs.
