Question 1

What areas do you cover from Colne?

Accepted Answer

We are based in Colne (BB8) and cover Burnley and the Pendle area, plus surrounding towns and villages within around 10 miles, including Trawden, Barnoldswick, Nelson, Barrowford, Foulridge and Skipton. If you are not sure whether we cover your area, give us a call and we will let you know.

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

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 4

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 5

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 Pike Hill rental is brought into the current CP12.

Question 6

What are your working hours for booking a landlord gas safety check?

Accepted Answer

We work Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, with no emergency call-outs or weekend appointments. It is worth booking your annual CP12 check for your Pike Hill rental within those hours and well ahead of the renewal date.

Question 7

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 8

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 9

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.

Question 10

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

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.
