About this service
Planning a check for your rental property
Landlords generally need to arrange a safety check every 12 months for the gas appliances and flues they provide. The check must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer qualified for the work.
Have the property postcode, the previous gas safety record if available, and a list of the gas appliances you provide. Let us know when the check is due and how access can be arranged with the tenant.

Common questions
Is a gas safety check the same as a boiler service?
They cover different things. A boiler service maintains the appliance. A landlord gas safety check records safety findings for the relevant appliances and flues. If you need both, ask about them when you enquire.
When do tenants need the gas safety record?
For typical residential lets, give existing tenants a copy within 28 days of the check and new tenants a copy before they move in. See the HSE guidance for details.
