Gas Safety Certificates (CP12) in Shoreham-by-Sea

A Landlord Gas Safety Record (CP12) is a legal requirement for any rental property with gas appliances in Shoreham-by-Sea. Valid for 12 months, this must be renewed annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer to ensure tenant safety across the Adur District.

Landlord Legal Responsibilities

Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, landlords throughout Shoreham, Southwick, and Lancing are legally responsible for the safety of gas pipework, boilers, and flues. Our specialist inspections are performed by fully qualified engineers, ensuring your property remains compliant with national safety standards and Adur District Council requirements.

Renewal Due

The 28-Day Rule

Landlords in Shoreham must provide a copy of the CP12 to existing tenants within 28 days of the check and to any new tenants before they occupy the property.

Avoid Criminal Penalties

Non-compliance is a serious criminal offence. It can lead to unlimited fines, potential imprisonment, and the invalidation of your landlord insurance policy for properties in the BN43 area.

Our Gas Safe engineers perform rigorous tightness testing and flue analysis. Regular CP12 inspections are your primary line of defence against Carbon Monoxide poisoning, identifying potential leaks or combustion issues before they become life-threatening risks to your Shoreham tenants.
