Every landlord in England must hold a valid CP12 for each rental home with gas. This is the law. The Gas Safety Regulations 1998 set it out. Miss it and the cost is high.
The HSE and Liverpool City Council both enforce gas safety. One non-compliant property can land you a fine of up to £6,000. In serious cases, court action and jail time are on the table. A CP12 costs £80. The fine is up to £6,000. That maths is easy.
Have not served a valid CP12 to your tenant? You may be unable to serve a valid Section 21 notice. The courts have ruled gas safety checks are a legal must for a valid S21. A lapsed CP12 can stop eviction in its tracks. You may not be able to take the property back. The yearly renewal and the hand-over to tenants are not optional.
You must hand a copy of the CP12 to current tenants within 28 days of issue. New tenants must get a copy before they move in. Late delivery is a separate breach. It can also hurt a Section 21 notice. We email the CP12 the same day. You can forward it to tenants right away.
A CP12 is valid for 12 months from the date of the check. Let it lapse even briefly and you are in breach. Tip: if the new check happens 10 to 12 months after the last one, the new CP12 runs from the old expiry date. You keep the full 12 months of cover. We add every landlord to our reminder list. Your CP12 never lapses.
Landlords must keep the CP12 record for at least two years from the issue date. You must be able to show it to the HSE, the council or a tenant if asked. We email the CP12 the same day. That creates a record with a timestamp on it. Keep all your CP12 files in one folder per property.
A valid CP12 is a must for any Liverpool City Council HMO licence. Without one, your licence will not go through. Your property cannot legally run as an HMO. Liverpool's housing team also inspects HMO homes. Gas safety checks are top of their list.
A CP12 is the official document. A Gas Safe registered engineer issues it after the gas safety check. It is the only paper that meets the law. The Gas Safety Regulations of 1998 set it out.
A CP12 confirms that all gas appliances, pipework, flues and vents in a rental home have been checked. The check must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer. The CP12 records the date of the check. It lists every appliance, where it sits and the result. The engineer's Gas Safe number is also on the document.
The CP12 dates back to 1998. The Gas Safety Regulations of that year set it up. It is the legal standard for gas safety in rental homes. The law covers England, Scotland and Wales. A CP12 lasts 12 months. Only a Gas Safe engineer can issue one. A plumber or electrician cannot.
A gas safety certificate is a legal check. It checks that appliances are safe. It does not clean, maintain or service the boiler. A boiler service is a maintenance check. It keeps the boiler running well. The maker needs it every year to keep the warranty valid. They are two separate things. You need both every year.
You can book both on the same visit for £175. That saves time, hassle and money over booking them apart. The combined visit is our most popular pick with Liverpool landlords.
Every gas item in the property is checked one by one. The check takes 30 to 45 minutes per item. A written result is logged for each one on the CP12.
Gas pressure is tested at the meter and at each appliance. Low pressure or weak flow can make appliances run unsafely. We confirm the right supply across the whole home.
All pipework and joints are tested for leaks. We use a calibrated leak detector. Any leak we find is fixed. The fix is logged in the report before we leave.
Flues are tested for cracks, sealing and safe venting. A damaged flue can let carbon monoxide build up inside the home. We catch this fast.
All gas appliances checked for proper venting. The maker sets the standard for each one. Blocked or poor vents are a common cause of bad burn and carbon monoxide risk.
Every safety device on each appliance is tested. That covers flame failure parts, relief valves and cut-outs. Each one must work for the appliance to pass.
We look for staining, soot or carbon deposits around appliances. These point to a burn problem and a CO risk. The fault must be fixed before the CP12 can be issued.
Every gas appliance is checked one by one. That covers the boiler, gas fires, gas hobs, cookers and any other gas-fed item. Each is logged on the CP12 with its own result.
On the day, the CP12 is issued and emailed. The PDF carries the engineer's Gas Safe number, the date of the check and the result for each appliance.
Same-day CP12 jobs available across Liverpool and the wider area. £80 fixed price. No call-out fee. CP12 emailed same day.
We follow the gas industry's rules for unsafe finds on every check. Here is what happens if a fault is found. And what it means for your CP12.
If an appliance is an immediate risk of injury or death, the engineer will turn it off and disconnect the gas to that appliance. A warning notice goes on it. We talk through the issue and give a written repair quote before we leave. A CP12 cannot be issued until the fault is fixed.
If a fault could turn dangerous but is not yet, the engineer flags the risk and gives a written repair quote. We strongly suggest fixing At Risk faults before the next tenancy. A CP12 can still be issued, with the fault noted.
Some older appliances meet the safety rules from when they were fitted but not current ones. The engineer logs these on the CP12 with a note. The appliance passes, but the issue is on record.
If a repair is needed, we send you a written quote before any extra work starts. We never start a repair without your go-ahead. Many simple repairs can be done on the same visit.
Liverpool has one of the highest counts of HMO properties in the North West. Gas safety compliance is a must for every HMO licence.
Want an HMO licence in Liverpool? You need a valid CP12. The CP12 covers all gas appliances. Renew it each year. The council checks gas safety on every HMO visit.
HMO homes often have many gas appliances. The boiler. Gas fires in shared rooms. Hobs. Central systems. Our team knows every HMO layout. We cover the lot in one visit.
For portfolio HMO landlords, we work to a shared schedule across all your properties. We can coordinate tenant access. You get one invoice across all the homes. All CP12 PDFs are emailed the same day. Call 0151 558 0334 to talk through a portfolio.
A CP12 matters at every stage of a Liverpool home sale or rent. Landlords are not the only ones who need one.
A valid CP12 and recent boiler service history puts buyers at ease. It also clears one of the most common pre-exchange snags. Liverpool buyers now often ask for gas safety paperwork before exchange. A home with no gas safety record gives buyers room to push for a price drop. Or to pull out. A CP12 at £80 is one of the cheapest steps you can take before listing.
Buying a Liverpool home? You can book an independent gas safety check before completion. We run the full CP12 and give a written report on every gas appliance. This is not a homebuyer's survey. It is gas-specific. If a fault turns up, you have written proof to renegotiate or to ask the seller to fix it.
A CP12 is needed before any tenant moves in. New tenants must get a copy on or before the start date. First-time landlords who miss this step fall foul of the Gas Safety Regulations 1998. We can often turn up within 24 to 48 hours. The CP12 is emailed the same day.
The most commonly missed trigger. If your CP12 is more than 12 months old when a new tenant moves in, it must be renewed first. An expired CP12 cannot be handed to a new tenant. Call us when notice comes in from a departing tenant. We will book the check in time for the new tenancy.
Some Liverpool lenders and equity release firms now ask for a current CP12 as part of the loan paperwork. This is most common on buy-to-let remortgages. A valid CP12 ticks that box. We email the PDF the same day so it is ready for your broker.
Some Liverpool landlord insurance policies want yearly gas safety checks. A lapsed CP12 can give an insurer cause to reduce or reject a claim on a gas fault. We can come out same-day if you need a CP12 at short notice for an insurer.

Great company, came within 30 mins for emergency burst pipe, couldn't praise them enough!
Fantastic service, less than two hours after phoning up to order a new shower the job was done. The young man who fitted it was a credit to himself. I would highly recommend this company.
