PLANNING YOUR VISIT

Consider renewal dates before booking early

There is flexibility for eligible annual checks to be completed up to two months early while retaining the original deadline. The dates and records need to support that arrangement.

If you want to use that flexibility, share the previous documentation rather than simply asking for a new certificate date. Confirm the intended deadline and record handling when arranging the work.

CONFIRM THE SCOPE

Three different requests, clearly identified

Safety check and record

The relevant checks are completed and their findings recorded by an appropriately qualified Gas Safe registered engineer.

Boiler servicing

Ask separately for maintenance if you need it. Servicing and the landlord safety check have different purposes.

Investigation or repairs

Reported faults and any proposed remedial work should be discussed separately. A record does not guarantee a satisfactory result.

FINDINGS FROM TNG’S WORK

Why the wider installation matters

These examples come from gas leak investigation and boiler service visits. They illustrate defects found during TNG’s work; they are not presented as completed landlord CP12 inspections.

BEFORE BOOKING

Landlord gas safety questions in St Albans

Can I arrange the annual check before the due date?

Yes. Eligible early checks can retain the original deadline within the permitted window; discuss the dates and required records when booking.

What should I send with the enquiry?

Send the property postcode in St Albans, the gas appliance list, previous record and due date if known. Explain access arrangements and any existing faults or notices. Avoid unnecessary tenant personal information.

Does a record guarantee that no faults were found?

No. The record contains the completed check results. Read the findings and arrange any required remedial action; an unsafe appliance must not be used.

Keep the dates and follow-up records together

Landlord checks are required annually. Existing tenants need a copy of the record within 28 days; new tenants need it before moving in. Retain records for at least two years, with additional retention conditions when using early-check flexibility.
