Upfront cost — no obligation If you let a property in Ilford, 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 right across Ilford — IG1, IG2 and IG3 — from our nearby Dagenham base. With a large rental market across the town and its surrounding neighbourhoods, we do a lot of CP12 work here. We work around your tenants and can service the boiler in the same visit.
Your legal duty as an Ilford 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. Ilford has a large private rental sector across IG1–IG3, and 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, confirm each appliance is burning correctly and safely, check ventilation and flue performance, and verify the safety devices work. If everything passes we issue your CP12 straight away. Where we spot something worth putting right, we advise you clearly and, where we can, sort it on the spot. Most inspections are quick, and we work around your tenants.

A recent CP12 in Ilford
A landlord booked a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate for an Ilford rental with two gas appliances — a Vaillant boiler and an Indesit cooker. Both passed our checks, and the only thing we flagged was that the property had no carbon monoxide alarm — an important safety item, since CO is odourless and an alarm is the only way to detect a leak. We recommended one, and with the landlord’s go-ahead supplied and fitted a CO alarm during the same visit, so the property was left safe and compliant without needing a second appointment.
