Gas Safety Compliance
In order to remain compliant as a landlord, you are responsible for the maintenance of the gas pipes, appliances and flues of all items that are part of the property. Services should be carried out in accordance with the appliances’ manuals or at least annually, and you should keep records of this and any work done. A copy of the records should also be given to your tenants. The checks carried out by a Gas Safe engineer are to ensure that all relevant appliances are working correctly and have no signs of faults. The inspection will also check that no dangerous fumes are escaping.

I am a Landlord and have been using Leighton for a number of years for all gas and plumbing related work at my properties. He is a real professional and I know I can always rely on him whenever I have any issues. I have had a few emergencies over the years with boilers not working or radiators leaking and he has always come out the same day to rectify the issue, keeping my tenants happy and safe.
I have had new boilers fitted from him and he does my annual gas safety checks all at competitive prices. Whether its a big job or a small one Leighton is my go to guy and I highly recommend him.
