Question 1

How experienced is Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating with landlord gas safety checks?

Accepted Answer

Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating was founded in 2014 and has more than 10 years of experience as a Gas Safe registered engineer, including landlord gas safety checks for rental properties across Bashall Eaves and the wider Lancashire area.

Question 2

Which boiler brands do you install and recommend?

Accepted Answer

As a Baxi Approved Installer, we specialise in Baxi boilers and can offer extended warranties of up to 10 years. Baxi produce highly reliable, energy-efficient boilers with excellent value for money. We can also install other leading brands such as Worcester Bosch and Vaillant if required, and will recommend the best boiler for your home based on your property size, hot water demands, and budget rather than pushing a single brand.

Question 3

What gets checked during a CP12 inspection?

Accepted Answer

Every gas appliance, plus the pipework, ventilation and flues. We inspect all gas appliances, including boilers, fires, cookers and hobs, carry out a gas tightness test, and confirm the flues are working safely, in line with Gas Safe requirements, before issuing the certificate.

Question 4

How quickly do tenants need to receive a copy of the certificate?

Accepted Answer

You must provide a copy of the current gas safety record to existing tenants within 28 days of the check, and to new tenants before they move in. We issue the completed certificate promptly so you can meet this deadline comfortably.

Question 5

What should I do if I smell gas at my rental property in Bashall Eaves?

Accepted Answer

Leave the property, avoid switches and naked flames, and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 straight away. This is a separate emergency line to your annual Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) check and should always be reported immediately.

Question 6

Should I keep a copy of the certificate myself as well as giving one to my tenant?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it is worth keeping your own copy alongside making sure the tenant receives theirs within 28 days of the check. We also keep a record of every certificate we issue for at least two years as a further safeguard.

Question 7

What if an appliance fails the safety check?

Accepted Answer

We make it safe and set out your options. If an appliance is found to be unsafe, we explain the issue clearly, isolate it if required for safety, and advise on repair or replacement so the property can be brought back into compliance.

Question 8

How much can I save by upgrading to a new boiler?

Accepted Answer

Upgrading from an old, inefficient boiler to a modern A-rated condensing boiler can save you hundreds of pounds a year on your energy bills, depending on your current boiler's age and efficiency. We will give you an honest estimate of the likely savings for your specific property during a free survey, rather than a generic figure.

Question 9

What types of boiler can you install, combi, system, or conventional?

Accepted Answer

We install all three types: combi boilers (heating water on demand with no separate cylinder), system boilers (working with a hot water cylinder), and conventional heat-only boilers (working with a cylinder and cold water tank). We will recommend the right type for your property during a free survey.

Question 10

Do I legally need a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) in Bashall Eaves?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you rent out a property with gas appliances in England and Wales, you are legally required to hold a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12), issued annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This covers all gas boilers, fires, cookers and other gas appliances in the property.
