Upfront cost — no obligation If you let a property in Upminster, an annual gas safety certificate isn’t optional — it’s the law. Gas First issues CP12 landlord gas safety certificates for landlords and letting agents across Upminster and the RM14 postcode, from our Dagenham base — the village, Corbets Tey and Cranham. We work around your tenants, keep disruption to a minimum, and can service the boiler in the same visit.
Your legal duty as an Upminster landlord
Every landlord has a legal duty under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations to have a valid gas safety certificate — the CP12, or Landlord Gas Safety Record. It must be renewed every 12 months and cover every gas appliance and flue in the property, however few, and can only be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. That includes flats where the heating is communal and the only gas appliance is a cooker — the cooker still needs to be on an annual CP12. You must also give a copy to your tenants — to existing tenants within 28 days of the check, and to new tenants before they move in. We keep landlords across RM14 compliant year after year.

What we check for your CP12
A CP12 covers every gas appliance in the property — whether that’s a boiler and a cooker, or just a single gas cooker in a flat with communal heating — along with the gas meter and the associated flues and pipework. On each appliance we carry out a tightness test at the meter, confirm it’s burning correctly and safely, and check ventilation, the flue and the safety devices. If everything passes we issue your CP12 straight away. Where we spot something worth improving — even if it’s outside the gas certificate itself — we’ll advise you, so you know where you stand. Most inspections are quick, and we work around your tenants.

A recent CP12 in Upminster
A landlord in Upminster booked a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate and we arranged the visit directly with the tenant. The flat’s heating was communal, so the only gas appliance in the property was the cooker — but a single gas appliance still needs its own annual CP12. We inspected the cooker and carried out a tightness test at the meter, and everything passed, so we issued the certificate. We also noticed the gas installation was missing its main protective bonding, and advised the landlord to have it put right — that’s an electrician’s job rather than part of the gas certificate, but exactly the kind of safety point we’ll always flag so they can arrange it.

Our CP12 price depends on the number of gas appliances in the property. For a single-appliance flat it's at the lower end. We confirm the exact price upfront.

How often do I need a CP12?
By law, every 12 months. The certificate must be renewed annually and a copy given to your tenants.
