What a gas safety check covers.
Gas safety checks in Winchester follow the same standard whether the property is rented out or your own home. The check covers your gas installations as a whole, not just the boiler.
Every gas appliance
The boiler, the cooker or hob and any gas fire, each checked to confirm it is burning correctly and running at the right pressure.
Flues and ventilation
Flues checked to make sure fumes are carried safely outside, and each room checked for the ventilation its appliance needs.
Pipework and tightness
The gas pipework tested for tightness, so leaks or faults in your gas systems that might otherwise go unnoticed are found.
Safety devices
The devices that shut an appliance down if something goes wrong, such as flame failure devices, tested to make sure they still work.
A certificate for landlords
Landlords get the gas safety record, often called a CP12, with the result for each appliance. Keep it and give your tenants a copy.
Clear answers
If something is not right, we explain what it is, how serious it is and what it would take to put right, with a free quotation for any work.
Your gas safety check in four steps.
-
Step 1: Phone call
Tell us the address, whether it is rented or your own home, and how many gas appliances there are.
-
Step 2: A time that suits
We agree a time that suits you, or your tenants if the property is let.
-
Step 3: The check
Each appliance, flue and the pipework checked in turn. If anything is dangerous, you hear about it straight away rather than at the end.
-
Step 4: Certificate
Landlords get the gas safety record for their tenants. Homeowners get a clear account of what we found.
The price depends on the property and the number of gas appliances, so we confirm it when you call. If the check turns up any work, that is quoted free and with no obligation.
