The Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12): Everything Essex Landlords Need to Know
CP12 rules, costs, multi-property discounts and what happens if a fault is found.
Every UK landlord must provide a valid CP12 gas safety certificate to tenants every 12 months. Miss it and you're looking at unlimited fines and potential prison time.
What's checked? Every gas appliance in the property — boiler, hob, fire — plus the gas pipework and ventilation.
How long does it take? Around 45 minutes per appliance.
Cost? From £75 for a single boiler in Essex; add roughly £15 per additional appliance.
What if a fault is found? It's flagged on the certificate. We never push unnecessary repairs — but anything 'Immediately Dangerous' must be disconnected by law.
Multi-property landlords: We give 10% off for 5+ properties on rolling annual contracts.
