Question 1

Can you do the gas safety check if my tenant is not home?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in most cases. We can arrange access directly with you as the landlord, or via your letting agent, if the tenant is unavailable, provided suitable access arrangements are in place, and coordinate a convenient time that works for everyone.

Question 2

Is a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate the same as a boiler service?

Accepted Answer

No. A CP12 is a legal annual safety check covering every gas appliance, pipework and flue in the property, while a boiler service looks only at the boiler. Landlords need a current CP12 regardless of any separate boiler service.

Question 3

How can I check if an engineer is Gas Safe registered?

Accepted Answer

Every genuine Gas Safe registered engineer carries a Gas Safe ID card, and you can independently verify any engineer or business on the official Gas Safe Register website using their registration number. Our Register No. is 640113, and we are always happy for customers to check this themselves before any work begins.

Question 4

Do you offer free quotes and estimates?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide free, no-obligation surveys and fixed written quotes for boiler installations, central heating work, and most plumbing jobs, so you know the full cost before agreeing to any work.

Question 5

What happens if I do not get an annual gas safety check?

Accepted Answer

Landlords who fail to arrange the annual check can face fines of up to 6,000 pounds per breach, and in serious cases prosecution or imprisonment. It also removes a key protection for your tenants safety, so an annual CP12 is not worth skipping.

Question 6

Can I check reviews before booking a gas safety check in Bashall Town?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating has 18 genuine Google reviews with a 5.0 average, alongside Gas Safe Register No. 640113, which you can verify independently before booking your Bashall Town rental in for its annual CP12.

Question 7

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 8

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 9

How often should I have my boiler serviced?

Accepted Answer

We strongly recommend having your boiler serviced annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Regular servicing ensures your boiler operates safely and efficiently, helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, keeps your manufacturer's warranty valid, and can extend the lifespan of your boiler by several years. An annual service typically takes around 30-45 minutes and includes safety checks, efficiency testing and a visual inspection of key components.

Question 10

Do you work with letting agents as well as private landlords in Bashall Town?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We regularly work directly with letting agents managing rental properties on behalf of landlords across Bashall Town, Nelson, Burnley and the wider Lancashire area, as well as with private landlords managing their own lets.
