Guide

Landlords should keep appliance details, tenant access arrangements, and prior certificate records ready before inspection to avoid preventable delays.

A compliant CP12 process includes checks on appliances, flues, and ventilation, with clear documentation for legal records and tenancy management.

Planning inspections ahead of renewal dates helps avoid compliance gaps and reduces administration pressure across larger portfolios.

It is useful to confirm appliance locations in advance, especially in multi-unit properties, so inspection visits can run efficiently and on schedule.

After inspection, store certificates in a central record system and share relevant documents promptly with tenants where required.

Building a fixed annual compliance calendar helps landlords stay ahead of deadlines and reduce last-minute access issues.

Quick Checks Before Booking

A few simple checks can make your appointment faster and help your engineer diagnose the issue more efficiently on arrival.

  • Note any boiler error codes or warning lights before calling.
  • Check whether the issue affects heating, hot water, or both.
  • Keep the area around the boiler clear for safe engineer access.

What to Share When You Book

  • Property address and best contact number
  • Boiler make/model if available
  • When the fault started and how often it occurs

Having this information ready can reduce back-and-forth and help schedule the right visit first time.
