Annual Gas Safety Checks for Landlords in Llanelli
As a landlord, you are legally required to have all gas appliances, pipework and flues in your rental properties checked every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Wayne Edwards carries out thorough annual gas safety inspections across Llanelli, providing you with the CP12 certificate you need to stay compliant.
We can schedule your annual checks well in advance so you never miss a deadline. Many Llanelli landlords book us for recurring annual visits, and we send reminders when your certificate is due for renewal.
What Is Included in a Landlord Gas Safety Check?
Our CP12 gas safety inspection covers every gas appliance in your rental property. During the check, your Gas Safe registered engineer will:
- Inspect all gas appliances including boilers, gas fires, cookers and water heaters
- Check gas pipework for leaks using specialist detection equipment
- Test flues and ventilation to ensure combustion products are safely removed
- Carry out a flue gas analysis to check the boiler is burning gas efficiently
- Check safety devices and controls are working correctly
- Inspect the gas meter and emergency control valve
- Issue a CP12 gas safety certificate listing all appliances checked and their condition
If we find any gas appliances that are unsafe, we will classify them as At Risk or Immediately Dangerous and advise you on the necessary repairs before re-issuing the certificate.
Your Legal Obligations as a Landlord
Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, landlords in the UK must:
- Have all gas appliances, pipework and flues checked annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Provide tenants with a copy of the gas safety certificate within 28 days of the check
- Give new tenants a copy of the current certificate before they move in
- Keep records of gas safety checks for at least two years
Failure to comply can result in fines of up to £6,000, a prison sentence of up to six months, or both. In cases of serious negligence leading to injury or death, landlords can face manslaughter charges. Wayne Edwards helps Llanelli landlords stay on the right side of the law with reliable, documented gas safety checks.
HMO and Multiple Property Landlords in Llanelli
If you manage a house in multiple occupation (HMO) or own several rental properties in Llanelli, gas safety compliance becomes even more critical. HMO properties often have shared gas appliances and more complex pipework that requires careful inspection. We offer discounted rates for landlords with multiple properties and can schedule all your inspections on the same day to save you time and money.
We also provide gas safety checks for letting agents managing portfolios of properties across Llanelli, Burry Port and the surrounding areas. We deal directly with your tenants to arrange access, making the process as simple as possible for you.
Gas Safety Certificates (CP12) in Llanelli
After completing the gas safety check at your Llanelli rental property, we issue a CP12 gas safety certificate. This is the official record that confirms all gas appliances have been inspected and are safe to use. The certificate includes the address of the property, a description of each appliance checked, the date of the inspection, and the name and registration number of the Gas Safe engineer who carried out the work.
We provide your CP12 certificate on the same day as the inspection, so there is no delay in getting your records up to date. Digital copies are available on request.
