A Gas Safety Certificate is necessary to ensure that your property is safe and compliant with the law.

Even as a homeowner, getting your gas system inspected is essential for the safety of your loved ones. For companies, it’s essential to keep employees and clients safe. Our service is rapid, professional, and safety-based. Let EICR CERT take care of it for you with care and expertise.
What Is a Gas Safety Certificate?
A Gas Safety Certificate is a formal certificate issued after a gas safety check has been carried out by a competent engineer. It indicates that your gas appliances—such as boilers, cookers, and heaters—are functioning safely and properly. Only registered Gas Safe engineers can issue the certificate. It’s legal evidence that your property is safe with gas. With EICR CERT, you can receive a certificate you can rely on. It gives you peace of mind having your home or rental property protected and safe for all those who live there.
Why Do You Need a Gas Safety Certificate?
Gas Safety Certificates are not only a legal requirement—they save lives. Insecure gas systems can result in hazardous leaks or carbon monoxide poisoning, which can be fatal. For landlords, it is a legal obligation under UK law. For house owners, it’s a wise option to ensure your gas appliances aren’t endangering your family. Companies also require them to safeguard their workers and guests. EICR CERT makes your gas system thoroughly inspected and compliant, preventing accidents from occurring in the first place.
Who Can Issue a Gas Safety Certificate?
Only Gas Safe Register-registered engineers are legally permitted to issue Gas Safety Certificates. This means that the individual inspecting your gas system must be qualified and trained to ensure it is done correctly. All our engineers at EICR CERT are fully registered Gas Safe, providing you with absolute assurance of the service you are receiving. We take gas safety seriously and adhere to all prescribed standards. Don’t gamble—use reliable professionals such as EICR CERT whenever you need a gas inspection or certification.
How Long Does a Gas Safety Certificate Last?
A Gas Safety Certificate has a 12-month validity starting from its issue date. After one year, it will need to be renewed to remain in line with the law, particularly for landlords and businesses. Routine checks keep your gas appliances safe in the long run. At EICR CERT, we make renewals easy and hassle-free. We even send reminders when it’s time for your next inspection. Keeping up with this yearly requirement helps avoid legal issues and ensures your property remains safe all year round.
How Much Does a Gas Safety Certificate Cost?
In London, the cost of a Gas Safety Certificate usually ranges between £60 and £100, depending on the number of appliances that need checking. If you have additional appliances or business equipment on your property, the cost can be a bit more. We provide open and transparent pricing with no additional fees at EICR CERT. Our aim is to get you compliant without breaking the bank. We also provide discounts when bundled with other services, such as boiler inspections or EICR reports.

Landlord Gas Safety Certificates
If you’re a landlord in London renting out property, a valid Gas Safety Certificate is compulsory. At EICR CERT, we ensure landlords are completely up to date with gas safety legislation. You have a duty to ensure all gas appliances, pipes, and flues in rental homes are safe for tenants. A Gas Safe registered engineer needs to inspect these annually. Failure to do so can result in severe penalties. We make the process simple, safe, and cheap so you can comply with your legal obligations without hassle.
CP12 Certificate Explained
A CP12 is the formal term for a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate. It involves a complete check of all gas appliances, pipework, and ventilation. The engineer will record any faults and safety issues, and then pass or fail the system. Unlike a standard gas check, the CP12 is a legally compliant document that landlords must complete every 12 months. EICR CERT offers thorough, easy-to-understand CP12 reports that adhere to industry requirements, allowing you to safeguard your tenants and your property while remaining legislatively compliant.
What If the Certificate Fails?
If your property fails the gas safety check, the report will detail why. You might notice terminology such as NCS (Not to Current Standards), AR (At Risk), or ID (Immediately Dangerous). An “ID” marking indicates that the appliance represents an immediate danger and needs to be switched off immediately. EICR CERT will report clearly on the problem and how it needs to be repaired. We can also undertake the repairs you need to ensure your property will pass the check and obtain a valid certificate.
Can You Be Fined Without a Certificate?
Yes, landlords can be severely punished for not having a valid Gas Safety Certificate. This means being fined up to £6,000 per property, even being sent to prison, and landlord insurance being invalid. Allowing tenants to remain in a home with unsafe gas installations also results in legal claims. We at EICR CERT prevent these issues from arising with easy, cheap checks completed on time. Maintaining annual inspections safeguards your tenants and ensures you remain within the law.
How to Book a Gas Safety Inspection as a Landlord
Booking a gas safety inspection with EICR CERT is easy. Just call or go online, and we’ll organize a time that suits you to come to your property. We’ll have a Gas Safe engineer come along and check all gas appliances and issue your CP12 certificate. We’ll give you a complete report on the same day, and if there are any problems, we’ll tell you what needs to be sorted out. We also send you reminders for future renewals, so you never risk running late. It’s a trouble-free process from beginning to end.
British Gas Landlord Cover
Some landlords opt for maintenance schemes such as British Gas Landlord Cover, which come with yearly gas checks and emergency call-outs. These can cover boiler service and unlimited call-outs, too. Although these schemes bring reassurance, they can cost more than one-off inspections. At EICR CERT, we provide affordable and flexible alternatives. You may opt for a straightforward one-off inspection or bundle it together with other works such as EICR reports or PAT testing in order to save time and money, all under the expert hand.
Additional Gas Services Offered
At EICR CERT, we do more than issue Gas Safety Certificates. Our portfolio of additional gas services ensures that homeowners, landlords, and companies maintain their properties fully safe and compliant. From the installation of new gas appliances to leak detection and boiler servicing, we touch all aspects of your gas system. Every task is performed by a Gas Safe registered engineer to meet UK regulations in full. Whether you need routine maintenance or a quick repair, EICR CERT offers reliable, effective gas services that suit your requirements.
Gas Boiler Service
An annual gas boiler service is vital in ensuring that your heating system is functioning properly and safely. Boilers can accumulate faults over time, and these may not be readily apparent but could cause safety concerns. Servicing identifies issues early on and maintains low energy bills. It is advisable, according to us at EICR CERT, to have your Gas Safety Certificate complemented by an annual boiler service. It guarantees that everything is in working order and conforms to all safety regulations. A functioning boiler translates to improved performance and reassurance throughout the year.
Gas Leak Detection & Repair
Gas leaks can be very dangerous, which is why EICR CERT provides quick and efficient gas leak detection and repair services in the London area. If you notice gas or suspect a leak, our engineers are able to attend quickly to find the source and repair it safely. We use specialist equipment to detect even small leaks that could be missed. Your safety is most important to us—we move swiftly, play by the book for safety procedures, and ensure your home or premises are safe to leave before we do.
Gas Hob & Appliance Installation
Having gas appliances such as hobs, ovens, or fireplaces installed requires proper installation to ensure your property remains safe. At EICR CERT, our Gas Safe engineers take care and precision when performing the installations, ensuring that everything is installed to the regulation requirements. We also put the appliances through testing and can provide a certificate to verify the installation is safe. Whether it’s a kitchen upgrade or installing a new fire, we do the job correctly from the beginning—safe, clean, and properly certified.
Disconnecting Gas Appliances Safely
Occasionally, you might need to take a gas appliance away or move it. EICR CERT provides safe disconnection for boilers, cookers, fires, and other appliances. It should be done by a skilled Gas Safe engineer to prevent leaks or danger. We take all proper precautions to isolate the gas supply, safely cap it off, and see that everything is left secure. When you are renovating, replacing an appliance, or clearing a property, we make it safe and easy.
Gas Safety Pre-Inspection Checklist
Before your gas inspection, it’s helpful to prepare. Make sure all gas appliances are easy to access—move any items blocking boilers, cookers, or fires. Have your gas meter visible and unlocked. If you’re a landlord, have previous certificates and tenant details ready if needed. Turn on pilot lights if they’ve gone out. EICR CERT will do the complete inspection, but some prep can speed up and smooth out the visit. We’ll walk you through each step to make it hassle-free.

FAQs for Gas Safety Certificate
How long does a gas safety check take?
A standard gas safety check usually takes between 30 minutes to 1 hour. The time depends on the number of gas appliances you have and whether they are easily accessible. If there are any problems or the engineer needs to investigate further, it might take a little longer. Our engineers work efficiently and keep you informed throughout the visit to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Is a gas safety certificate mandatory for homeowners?
You do not need a gas safety certificate as a homeowner unless you’re renting out your home or selling it. Regular checks are highly advisable to protect your family from carbon monoxide or gas leaks. Landlords are required by law to have a current certificate every 12 months. Even as a homeowner, though, a safety check is a good idea to prevent problems.
Can you fail a gas safety inspection?
Yes, a property can fail a gas safety inspection if any appliance, pipework, or flue is found to be unsafe. Common reasons include gas leaks, poor ventilation, or faulty appliances. If this happens, the engineer will explain the issue clearly and may label it as “At Risk” (AR), “Immediately Dangerous” (ID), or “Not to Current Standards” (NCS). You’ll be told exactly what needs fixing and how to make your property safe.
What’s included in the gas safety check?
The inspection includes checking all gas appliances, such as your boiler, hob, or gas fire. The engineer will test the gas pipework, ventilation, flue (if present), and make sure there are no leaks. They will also check the gas pressure and safety controls. Everything is done to ensure your appliances are working safely and meet legal standards. Once complete, you’ll get a detailed Gas Safety Certificate (CP12).
Can I sell my house without a Gas Safety Certificate?
Yes, it is possible to sell your home without a gas safety certificate, as it is not a legal requirement for the sale. But most buyers or their legal advisers will require one as evidence that the gas network is safe. Obtaining the certificate prior to putting your property on the market can make the sale easier and reassure potential buyers. It’s a minimal step that provides value and reassurance.
