Gas Safety Certificates

Landlord Gas Safety Certificates (CP12) — Borders & East Lothian

Annual landlord gas safety inspections (CP12) and homeowner gas safety checks across the Scottish Borders & East Lothian. Our Gas Safe registered engineers test every gas appliance — boiler, hob, fire, meter and pipework — for soundness, ventilation, flueing and combustion performance, then issue the certificate the same day. We deal with tenants directly to arrange access, file the digital certificate to you and your letting agent, and set a reminder so the renewal never lapses.

Gas Safety Certificates FAQs

How much is a landlord gas safety certificate?+

Single-property CP12s typically run £75–£95 depending on the number of gas appliances. Multi-property landlords get a portfolio discount — ask for a written quote.

How long does the inspection take?+

Usually 30–45 minutes for a one-bedroom flat with a boiler and hob. Larger properties with multiple gas appliances run to about an hour.

What happens if an appliance fails?+

We isolate the unsafe appliance, issue a Warning Notice and quote in writing for the repair. The CP12 is issued for the safe appliances and re-issued in full once the fault is rectified.
