A Landlord Gas Safety Certificate, often called a CP12, is a document that proves all gas appliances and flues in your rental property have been checked by a qualified Gas Safe engineer and are safe to use. You legally must have a valid CP12 for any property you let out. This certificate helps you meet your property compliance duties and most importantly, it makes sure your tenants are safe from potential gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning, and other hazards linked to unsafe gas appliances.

You need to arrange an annual gas safety inspection for every gas appliance and flue in your rental property. This annual check makes sure that your gas systems remain safe and compliant year after year. It's smart to plan your gas safety renewal in advance so you always have an up-to-date certificate when new tenants move in or for existing tenancies.

During a Landlord Gas Safety Check, our Gas Safe engineer will:

• Thoroughly inspect all your gas appliances (like boilers, gas fires, and cookers) for safe operation.
• Check the ventilation for each appliance.
• Examine the flue systems to make sure products of combustion are being safely removed.
• Look at the gas pipework for any signs of leaks or damage.
• Perform essential operating pressure and gas tightness tests.
• Once everything passes, we issue your official CP12 certificate.

Only a Gas Safe registered engineer can legally carry out a gas safety check and issue a CP12 certificate. It's vital you never use an unregistered or unqualified person. Our engineers at Go Flow Solutions Edinburgh are all fully Gas Safe registered, meaning they have the right skills and legal authorisation to work safely and competently with gas appliances in your property.

Absolutely! While we're based in Edinburgh, our Gas Safe engineers regularly carry out landlord gas safety certificate inspections across the wider regions. We provide property compliance services in East Lothian, Midlothian (like Dalkeith, Penicuik), West Lothian (including Livingston, Bathgate), and Fife (such as Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy). Just give us a call to discuss your property location.

If our engineer finds a fault during the inspection that makes an appliance unsafe, they will immediately let you know. For safety reasons, they might have to disconnect the appliance. We will then give you clear advice and a quote for any necessary repairs. Our goal is to fix the problem quickly and safely to get your property compliant again. Your tenant’s safety is our top concern.

Yes, we partner with many letting agents and property management companies across Edinburgh and the Lothians. We understand the demands of managing multiple properties and can set up tailored service agreements for your portfolio. We make gas safety compliance easy and efficient for your properties, whether you manage a few flats or a large number of homes.
