Gas Safety & CP12 in Barking and Dagenham

Gas safety work across Barking and Dagenham sits at the heart of what we do for landlords managing rented stock across RM6, RM8, RM9, RM10, and IG11. The Becontree Estate alone holds tens of thousands of inter-war homes, and the wider borough takes in tower blocks around Goresbrook, regeneration units along the Thames at Castle Green, and Chadwell Heath terraces with original cast-iron carcassing still in service. We are Gas Safe registered (number 972173, verifiable at gassaferegister.co.uk) and our engineers turn up with a calibrated digital manometer, smoke pellets, and the paperwork to issue a Landlord Gas Safety Record on the same visit.

The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, specifically Regulation 36, place the annual inspection duty squarely on the landlord. We work to the letter of the framework: a CP12 (LGSR) issued within 28 days of the check, tenants receive their copy within the same 28-day window, and the certificate is dated to align with your existing renewal cycle so you never drift outside compliance. Each appliance is checked visually for damage and corrosion, working pressure is measured in kPa against the manufacturer plate, gas tightness is verified using either an NCS Engineering U-tube or a digital manometer, flue flow is proven with smoke pellets or an anemometer where appliances are room-sealed, and ventilation is calculated against BS 5440-2 for any open-flue installation.

Pricing is fixed and excludes VAT. A single property CP12 with up to three appliances is 125 pounds, with extra appliances at 20 pounds each. Combining your annual boiler service with the LGSR drops the total to 210 pounds (a 40 pound saving) and a second boiler at the same visit is 95 pounds. For HMO portfolios across Becontree we will price multi-property runs on a portfolio basis.

For an active leak ring the National Gas Emergency on 0800 111 999 first, then call us for follow-up isolation, pipework repair to BS 6891, and re-certification.
