Landlord gas safety certificates (CP12) in Newcastle
Landlords have a legal duty to have every gas appliance and flue in a rental property checked for safety every twelve months by a Gas Safe registered engineer. We carry out those checks and issue the Gas Safety Record (CP12) for landlords and letting agents across Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside, Gateshead and surrounding areas.
Landlord Gas Safety Certificates across Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside, Gateshead and surrounding areas
We know how important it is that inspections happen on time and with as little disruption to tenants as possible, so we can arrange appointments directly with tenants where you would like us to.
Our Landlord Gas Safety Certificate includes a full boiler service at the same visit. This helps identify potential issues early, maintain boiler reliability and reduce the risk of avoidable breakdowns during the year ahead.

Your responsibilities as a landlord
These duties sit with you rather than the tenant. We handle the check and paperwork, and can remind you before the next renewal falls due.
- 01Arrange an annual gas safety check on all relevant appliances and flues
- 02Keep gas appliances and pipework in a safe condition
- 03Give a copy of the Gas Safety Record to existing tenants within 28 days of the check
- 04Give a copy to new tenants before they move in
- 05Keep copies of the records for at least two years
- 06Use a Gas Safe registered engineer for all gas work
The Gas Safety Record
Once the check is complete, you receive a record showing the date, property address, appliances and flues tested, any defects identified and action taken, together with the engineer's details and Gas Safe registration.
If an appliance is unsafe, we explain the classification, what it means and what needs to happen next. Where requested, we can carry out remedial work at the same time.

Boilers and other gas appliances
Most rental properties have a boiler, and many also have a gas fire or gas hob. All appliances the landlord owns must be included in the check.
We also service boilers and gas fires. Combining the annual service and safety check avoids arranging a separate visit.
Preparing the property
A little preparation helps the engineer complete the inspection efficiently and keeps disruption to tenants to a minimum.
- Let tenants know the date and approximate time in advance
- Make sure the engineer can access the boiler, meter and all appliances
- Clear cupboards and stored items away from appliances
- Ensure gas and electricity supplies are on, including any prepayment credit
- Let us know about any faults tenants have already reported
Managing several properties?
We can stagger renewal dates, liaise directly with tenants and send each completed record to you or your agent. Tell us how you would like your portfolio organised.
Rated 5.0 by Newcastle homeowners and landlords
We had no heating and Masoud was able to come out and see us the next day. He was friendly, knowledgeable and very reasonable. Would recommend to anyone and will be using him in future! Thanks Masoud!
Masoud was punctual, efficient and super competitively priced. He was so responsive and communicative from the moment we reached out, and his brilliant service only continued when he arrived! Knowledgable and friendly, he resolved the issue in half an hour and explained it to me in simple terms. He was so patient fielding questions, too. And he reassured me he was available if I had anymore problems. I'll 100% be using this company again. I can't recommend them highly enough! Faultless service.
Masoud did our annual boiler and unvented water tank service and I can't recommend him enough. It was so easy to book with him, just a quick couple of messages over WhatsApp and the appointment was confirmed. He arrived when he said he would and was very friendly and helpful. He was thorough, showing me what he had done and giving me some advice. I greatly appreciated how thorough and efficient he was, as well as just being a very nice man. It was also great value for money. I highly recommend him and we will be using his services again.
