A Landlord’s Gas Safety Certificate is a report which lists all the checks carried out in the annual service of your rental property’s gas appliances. It shows that all the gas appliances, fittings and flues provided tenants were checked by a registered Gas Safe engineer

Landlord’s responsibilities

According to the Gas Safe Register:

“As a landlord you should be aware that you are responsible for the safety of your tenants. Your legal duties apply to a wide range of accommodation occupied under a lease or licence, including (but not limited to):

Residential premises provided for rent by local authorities, housing associations, private sector landlords, co-operatives, hostels.

Rooms, let in bed-sit accommodation, private households, bed and breakfast accommodation and hotels.
Rented holiday accommodation such as chalets, cottages, flats, caravans and narrow boats on inland waterways.
The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 outline the duties of landlords to ensure gas appliances, fittings and chimneys/flues provided for tenants are safe.”
