Gas Safe registered no. 576059 · fixed written price before any work starts

A Gas Safety Certificate, formally a CP12, records that the gas appliances at a property have been checked by a Gas Safe registered engineer and found to be operating safely. For landlords it is a legal requirement, renewed annually, and it needs to cover every gas appliance the landlord has provided, not just the boiler. For homeowners it is not a legal requirement in the same way, but the underlying checks, correct combustion, safe ventilation, no leaking joints, are exactly what stands between a normal household and a carbon monoxide risk that has no smell, no colour and no warning until it is doing damage.

Harrison E Jones Heating is Gas Safe registered under number 576059, licence 3715984, and we carry out gas safety checks and issue certificates across Liverpool, Knowsley, Halton and St Helens. We also service boilers, and fit gas hobs and gas fires, all of which are part of keeping a property&#x27;s gas installation safe rather than just legally compliant on paper.

This page is about the safety and compliance side of gas ownership rather than repairs or installations: what a certificate actually checks, who needs one, how often, and what happens if something is found to be unsafe.

## What a Gas Safety Certificate actually checks
The engineer checks that each gas appliance is operating at the correct pressure, that it is burning gas correctly rather than producing excess carbon monoxide, that flues are correctly connected and unobstructed so combustion gases actually leave the building, that ventilation to the appliance is adequate, and that all the safety devices designed to shut an appliance down in a fault condition are working. Pipework and fittings are checked for soundness so there is no gas escaping at a joint you would never see or smell in normal use.

This is not a visual glance at the boiler casing. It is a set of measured checks with equipment, and the results, including flue gas readings where relevant, are recorded on the certificate itself, not just summarised as a pass.

## Landlord duties: what the law actually requires
If you let a property with gas appliances, you are legally required to have every gas appliance and flue that you own checked annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and to give tenants a copy of the current certificate. New tenants must receive a copy before they move in, or within 28 days if the check happens shortly after they move in, and existing tenants must be given a copy within 28 days of the check being carried out.

The duty sits with the landlord, not the letting agent, even where an agent manages the property day to day, so it is worth confirming directly that the certificate has actually been renewed rather than assuming it has been handled. Missing the annual deadline is not just an administrative slip: it can affect insurance and any subsequent tenancy dispute.

## Landlord certificates for portfolios and multiple properties
Landlords with more than one property tend to end up with certificates falling due on different dates for different properties, which makes it easy to lose track of what is due and when. We can carry out landlord certificates on a rolling basis across a portfolio and keep you informed of when the next one is due, so you are not relying on memory or a spreadsheet to stay compliant.

Where a property has multiple gas appliances, a boiler, a gas fire, a gas hob, all of them need to be included in the same visit and certificate, so it is worth confirming what is actually installed at a property before the engineer attends, particularly with older tenancies where appliances may have been added over the years.

## Carbon monoxide: why the check exists at all
Carbon monoxide is produced whenever gas does not burn completely, which happens when an appliance is faulty, poorly maintained, or starved of the air it needs to combust properly, or when a flue is blocked or disconnected so the gas has nowhere safe to go. It has no smell, no colour and no taste, and low-level exposure produces symptoms, headaches, nausea, fatigue, that are easy to mistake for a virus or tiredness.

A gas safety check is the practical defence against this: it catches the faults before they become an exposure incident, rather than relying on an alarm to catch a leak that has already started. A carbon monoxide alarm is a useful backstop and we would always recommend one is fitted and tested, but it is not a substitute for the appliance actually being checked and maintained.

## Boiler servicing alongside the safety check
A boiler service and a gas safety check cover overlapping but not identical ground. A service looks specifically at the boiler&#x27;s internal components, seals, condition and efficiency, in line with the manufacturer&#x27;s recommended schedule, which matters for keeping any manufacturer warranty valid. A gas safety check covers every gas appliance at the property against the legal safety standard.

Where it makes sense, we can carry out both on the same visit for a boiler, so you are not paying for two separate call-outs to look at the same appliance from two different angles.

## Gas hob and gas fire installation: getting new appliances certified from day one
Installing a gas hob or a gas fire is notifiable gas work and needs to be carried out and certified by a Gas Safe registered engineer, the same as any other gas appliance. Getting this right from the point of installation matters for a landlord&#x27;s certificate later, because an appliance that was fitted without proper certification can complicate an otherwise straightforward annual check.

We install gas hobs and can service existing gas fires, and in both cases we test the installation for gas tightness and correct operation before we consider the job finished, regardless of whether it is a new appliance or an existing one being brought back into safe working order.

## What happens if we find an appliance is unsafe
If an appliance fails a safety check, it will be classified as either immediately dangerous, at risk, or not to current standards, and the appropriate action follows that classification, up to and including disconnecting the appliance on the spot if it presents an immediate risk. We explain clearly what was found, why it matters, and what needs to happen to make the appliance safe again, whether that is a repair, a part replacement, or in some cases a full replacement of the appliance.

We would rather tell you an uncomfortable truth about an appliance than sign a certificate that does not reflect what we actually found, because the certificate is only useful if it is accurate.

Questions

## Gas Safety: Frequently Asked Questions
How often does a landlord gas safety check need to be done?Every 12 months, for every gas appliance and flue the landlord owns at the property.

Do homeowners need a Gas Safety Certificate?It is not a legal requirement in the same way as for landlords, but having appliances checked periodically is a sensible safety measure, particularly for older boilers, fires and cookers.

What is the difference between a gas safety check and a boiler service?A safety check covers every gas appliance at the property against the legal safety standard. A boiler service looks specifically at the boiler&#x27;s internal condition and efficiency, in line with the manufacturer&#x27;s schedule.

Can you certify a gas hob or gas fire on the same visit as the boiler?Yes, where the property has multiple gas appliances we can check and certify them together on one visit.

What areas do you cover for gas safety certificates?Liverpool, Knowsley, Halton and St Helens.
