About This Service
Landlord Gas Safety Certificates Done Right
Our 3-step process means every Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) is delivered with consistent checks, clear digital records and prompt follow-up. A Gas Safe‑registered engineer (No. 558349) inspects boilers, meters, pipework, flues and controls, logs results and issues the CP12. We cover Redditch and nearby villages, offer same‑day certificates where safe, and provide straightforward remedial quotes if an appliance fails.

Gas Safety Checks for Rental Properties in Redditch
Landlords have responsibilities for gas safety in rented properties. A gas safety check covers relevant landlord-provided gas appliances and flues, and must be carried out by an appropriately qualified Gas Safe registered engineer. The engineer records the findings so the landlord has a record of the check.
Lakins Heating & Plumbing carries out landlord gas safety checks in Redditch and nearby areas. When you contact us, let us know the property address, which gas appliances need checking and how access will be arranged.
Planning Your Inspection
Landlords must normally arrange a gas safety check every 12 months. There are rules allowing the check to be carried out in the two months before the existing deadline while retaining the original expiry date. Keep your records and check the current requirements for your property and tenancy.
A boiler service and a landlord gas safety check are different jobs. If the boiler also needs servicing, tell us when you book so we can discuss both. Please make sure the engineer can access the relevant appliances and flues, and coordinate entry with the tenant.
If a Problem is Found
If an appliance or installation is unsafe, the engineer will explain the finding and the safety action needed. We can discuss the work required and provide a quote where repairs are appropriate. A gas safety record documents the results of the check; it does not mean that a fault can be ignored or that every appliance has passed.
