Question 1

When should I book my landlord gas safety check?

Accepted Answer

Book a few weeks before your current certificate expires, or as soon as a new gas-fitted rental or a new tenancy starts. We operate Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, and will arrange a convenient time for you or your tenant.

Question 2

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

Accepted Answer

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

Question 3

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 Guide and the wider Lancashire area.

Question 4

How long is a CP12 certificate valid for?

Accepted Answer

A Landlord Gas Safety Certificate is valid for 12 months from the date of the check. We recommend booking your next check a few weeks before it expires to avoid any gap in compliance between one certificate and the next.

Question 5

Are your prices fixed or do you charge by the hour?

Accepted Answer

Wherever possible we provide a fixed, written quote before work begins, covering installations, servicing and most plumbing jobs, so there are no surprises on the day. This is confirmed after a free survey or an honest phone conversation about the job.

Question 6

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 7

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 8

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 9

Are you Gas Safe registered, and can I check before booking in Guide?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can verify us independently on the official Gas Safe Register using our Register No. 640113 before any work begins in Guide. Every Gas Safe registered engineer carries a unique ID card, and we are always happy for landlords to check first.

Question 10

How long does a boiler installation typically take?

Accepted Answer

A straightforward like-for-like combi boiler swap usually takes one working day. Converting from a conventional or system boiler to a combi, or fitting a new unvented cylinder alongside the installation, can take one to two days depending on the pipework involved. We confirm the expected timescale in your written quote.
