Question 1

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Accepted Answer

We operate Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, and do not offer emergency call-outs or weekend work. We do prioritise urgent boiler breakdowns and aim to attend as quickly as possible during our working hours. For a true gas emergency (smell of gas or suspected leak), contact the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 immediately.

Question 2

Is my gas fire included in a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A CP12 covers every gas appliance in a rental property, including gas fires, so if there is a gas fire in the let it is checked as part of the annual landlord certificate, alongside the boiler and any gas cooker or hob.

Question 3

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 4

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 5

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

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you are a landlord renting out a property with gas appliances in England and Wales, you are legally required to have a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) issued annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This applies to all gas boilers, gas fires, gas cookers, and any other gas appliances. Failure to comply can result in fines of up to 6,000, pounds prosecution, and even imprisonment. We provide prompt certificates for landlords and letting agents across Colne and the surrounding Lancashire area.

Question 6

Can I check reviews before booking a gas safety check in Higher Constable?

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 Higher Constable rental in for its annual CP12.

Question 7

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 8

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 9

Which areas do you cover for landlord gas safety checks?

Accepted Answer

We carry out CP12 inspections for landlords and letting agents across Higher Constable and the wider Lancashire area, including Colne, Nelson, Burnley and the surrounding Pendle and Ribble Valley area. Call us with your rental address to confirm we cover it.

Question 10

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.
