Gas / Landlords Gas Safety Inspections
Every landlord in the UK has a legal obligation under the GSIUR (Gas Safety and Installation Regulations) 1998 to ensure that all gas pipe work, appliances and flues provided by them for use by their tenants are regularly inspected and maintained. This work must also be accompanied by an Annual safety check that covers each aspect of the gas system owned and supplied by the landlord, appliances owned by the tenant are not necessarily the landlord’s responsibility, but any connected or associated equipment such as pipe work or flues are.
PHS Compliance carry out in excess of 3000 landlord’s gas safety inspections each year across the UK for major pub retailers, social landlords, housing associations and property agents. These inspections are carried out by our National team of GAS SAFE registered engineers who are all trained and qualified to carry out landlord gas safety inspections and complete relevant certification.
We recognise that keeping tenanted properties operational is vital, we therefore ensure that our engineers are equipped to make essential onsite repairs to gas systems and appliances where required enabling your tenants to remain in their properties and giving you peace of mind.
In order to ensure landlords meet their obligations as far as paperwork is concerned, we complete certification electronically on site and can leave a paper hard copy with your tenants immediately as well as maintaining the landlords copy in an electronic file accessible via our website for the required period of 2 years.
For landlords operating a significant property portfolio, we will manage your risk and compliance end to end by making appointments with your tenants, carrying out gas safety checks, repairing defects and holding all documentation on file, we will also produce comprehensive management information for you to view online and deal with any legislative audits you may undergo on your behalf allowing you to continue with your work.
