Question 1

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 2

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 3

If I have added a new gas appliance since my last check, will it be included in the next CP12?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Any appliance added, removed or replaced since your last certificate is checked as part of the next annual inspection, so a new gas fire, cooker or boiler in your Huncoat rental is brought into the current CP12.

Question 4

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 5

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 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

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 8

How do I book a landlord gas safety check for my Huncoat rental?

Accepted Answer

Call 07880 240138 during our working hours, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, and we will arrange a convenient time for your Huncoat property. We can also note your renewal date so future checks are booked well ahead.

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

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

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.
