FAQs
What happens if defects are found in a gas safety inspection?
The Gas Safe registered engineer will specify such defects in the CP12 certificate in the event that they are discovered during a gas safety inspection.

To guarantee the safety of tenants and manipulation of laws, the landlords are legally bound to help them resolve these problems.
Can I sell a house without a current gas safety certificate?
Although this is not mandatory in the eyes of the law, it can boost the confidence of the buyer by providing them with a current gas safety certificate. But when there are tenants, the owners of the property that are being tenanted by others are required to provide a valid certificate of CP12 in order to fulfill their legal requirements and to provide safety to tenants.
Does a gas safety inspection include checking flues and chimneys?
