Upfront cost — no obligation If you let a property in East Ham, 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 East Ham and the E6 postcode. East Ham has one of the highest concentrations of private rented housing in London, so we do a lot of CP12 work here — and, as the job below shows, it’s a check that genuinely keeps tenants safe. We work around your tenants and can service the boiler in the same visit.
Your legal duty as an East Ham 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, must cover every gas appliance and flue in the property, and can only be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. You also have to give a copy to your tenants — to existing tenants within 28 days of the check, and to new tenants before they move in. With East Ham’s very large private rental sector across E6, we keep landlords and agents compliant year after year, with reminders when renewals are due.

What we check for your CP12
On every gas safety inspection we check all the gas appliances in the property — boiler, gas hob, cooker and any gas fire — along with the gas meter and the associated flues and pipework. We carry out a gas tightness test at the meter, which detects any drop in pressure that would indicate a gas leak somewhere on the installation, then confirm each appliance is burning correctly and safely, and check ventilation, flues and safety devices. If everything passes we issue your CP12 straight away. If we find a problem, we explain it clearly and, where we can, put it right so the certificate can pass. Most inspections are quick, and we work around your tenants.

A recent CP12 in East Ham
A landlord booked a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate for an East Ham rental with three gas appliances, including a Vaillant boiler and a Hotpoint cooker. On the tightness test at the meter we picked up a gas leak — and traced it to the cooker’s bayonet joint, the connection where the cooker plugs into the gas supply. We informed the landlord straight away, rectified the leaking joint, and re-tested; with the leak fixed, the installation passed and we issued the certificate. A clear example of why the annual CP12 matters: the tightness test found a real gas leak that would otherwise have gone unnoticed, and we made it safe.
