Gas Safety Certificates

About our gas safety certificates service

Every residential and commercial property with a gas supply has a legal obligation to ensure the safety of its occupants. For landlords, this requirement is formalised through the Landlord Gas Safety Record, commonly known as a CP12 certificate. At Design N Build, we facilitate comprehensive gas safety assessments that cover everything from domestic boilers in private rentals to high capacity heating systems in commercial blocks. These inspections are not merely a box-ticking exercise but a vital part of property management that prevents carbon monoxide exposure and gas-related incidents. Our service supports individual homeowners, portfolio landlords, and commercial facility managers in maintaining their statutory duties. Beyond standard residential checks, we integrate gas safety into broader HMO Compliance strategies, ensuring that multi-occupancy buildings meet the specific, stringent fire and gas safety standards required by local authorities. By coordinating these inspections with other certifications like Electrical Safety Certificates or EPC assessments, we provide a streamlined route to total building compliance.
