Local insights

Gas safety / CP12 in Ealing: the local picture.

Ealing carries one of the heavier HMO concentrations on our western patch, particularly across Southall and Acton, which means multi-appliance CP12 work runs through the diary every week. The borough covers W3, W5, W7, W13, UB1, UB2, UB5, UB6, and NW10, taking in Edwardian villas in central Ealing, Victorian terraces in Acton and Hanwell, 1930s semis in Greenford and Northolt, post-war and HMO stock in Southall, plus the industrial-adjacent housing of Park Royal and West Ealing. Affinity Water supplies the borough on hard mains. Our Gas Safe registration is 972173 (verifiable at gassaferegister.co.uk).

The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 (GSIUR 1998) Regulation 36 sets the annual inspection duty for landlords. We issue the Landlord Gas Safety Record (LGSR or CP12) within 28 days of the check and tenants must receive their copy inside the same 28-day window. For HMOs we identify every appliance shared and bedsit, including bedroom-flued water heaters, communal cookers, and shared central heating plant, on a single certificate that covers the lot.

Each appliance check covers visual condition for damage, corrosion, and combustion staining, working pressure measured in kPa against the manufacturer data plate, gas tightness verified with a calibrated digital manometer, flue flow proven by smoke pellet for open-flue appliances and anemometer for room-sealed plant where indicated, and ventilation calculated against BS 5440-2 for every open-flue installation against the property's habitable volume.

Pricing excludes VAT. CP12 with up to three appliances is 125 pounds, each extra appliance 20 pounds, the CP12 and annual boiler service combination is 210 pounds at the same visit, and a second boiler at the same visit is 95 pounds. Multi-appliance HMO portfolios across Southall are priced per certificate. Active leak: ring National Gas Emergency on 0800 111 999, then us for isolation, BS 6891 repair, and re-certification.

Ealing sits on the Cadent Gas west London network; any uncontrolled escape routes to 0800 111 999. Edwardian villas in central Ealing usually have the ECV in an external meter box by the bay window, while Southall HMOs often have multiple meters banked in a side return.
