Gas Safety Certificates in Barming

Barming has a notable proportion of privately rented housing within its post-war and 1960s–1980s residential streets — the kind of housing stock that often contains older boilers and, in some cases, additional gas appliances such as gas hobs or gas fires that must also be inspected and recorded on the CP12.

What We Inspect

A gas safety certificate covers all fixed gas appliances in the property. In most Barming rental homes this means the boiler — but if the property has a gas hob, gas fire, or gas cooker, each appliance is inspected individually and recorded on the certificate. We confirm the number and type of appliances when you book so we can allocate the right amount of time.

The inspection covers gas supply pressure, appliance operation, flue integrity and combustion safety, ventilation adequacy, and all safety device functions. Where an appliance fails an inspection check, we advise you on the defect and the remedial action required.

Meeting the Legal Requirement

Landlords must carry out an annual gas safety inspection and provide their tenants with a copy of the certificate within 28 days of issue. New tenants must receive a copy before they move in. Certificates must be retained for two years.

Failure to hold a valid CP12 is a criminal offence and can also invalidate landlord insurance. We carry out inspections promptly so that compliance is never left to the last minute.

Tenant Liaison

If you manage Barming rental properties remotely, we can liaise directly with your tenants to arrange access. Many landlords find it easier to give us the tenant's contact details and let us coordinate the appointment. Certificates are issued digitally immediately after inspection, making it straightforward to forward to tenants on the same day.

Two-Month Early Renewal

If your current certificate is within two months of expiry, you can renew early without losing time on the annual cycle. The renewal date carries forward from the existing certificate's expiry date, not the date of inspection. This makes it easy to book ahead and keep on top of renewal without sacrificing any cover.

Combined Inspection and Service

Combining the gas safety inspection with the annual boiler service on the same visit is a practical and cost-efficient option for most Barming landlords. One appointment, one fee, and both obligations met. Call us to discuss.
