Gas Safety reminders

Keep Gas Safety renewal dates visible by property

Apex Heritage helps landlords record Gas Safety certificate details, attach supporting documents, and see renewal status alongside the rest of the property compliance picture.

Track CP12 status by property

Store certificate dates against the property, not in a disconnected spreadsheet. Each property can show whether the Gas Safety record is current, approaching renewal, missing, or expired.

Keep evidence close to the reminder

Upload the certificate and keep the document linked to the tenancy and property context. When you need to check what was shared or renewed, the record is in the same workspace as the reminder.

Manage Gas Safety with the wider tenancy workflow

Gas Safety is only one part of landlord compliance. Apex Heritage also helps with EPC, EICR, deposit documentation, tenant documents, and ongoing repairs so renewal work does not sit in isolation.

  • Certificate date and expiry tracking
  • Property-level compliance traffic lights
  • Document upload and tenant sharing support
  • Renewal reminders before key dates
  • Related EPC and EICR certificate tracking
  • Clear property context for tracked compliance records

Common questions

How often must a Gas Safety check be carried out for a rental property?

For rented properties and gas installations covered by the regulations, a Gas Safe registered engineer generally must complete the safety check within each 12-month period. Check current HSE guidance for timing and how the rules apply to your circumstances.

What is a CP12 certificate?

A CP12 is the Gas Safety Record — the formal document issued by a Gas Safe registered engineer after each annual inspection. It confirms that gas appliances and pipework have been checked and records any safety concerns. 'CP12' comes from the CORGI form historically used for the check.

Who can legally carry out a Gas Safety check?

Only engineers registered with the Gas Safe Register. You can check a specific engineer or company on the Gas Safe Register website. Using an unregistered person to inspect or work on gas appliances is illegal.

Do I need to give my tenant a copy of the Gas Safety certificate?

Landlords generally must give existing tenants a copy of the Gas Safety Record within 28 days of each annual check and give new tenants a copy before they move in. Check current HSE guidance or obtain professional advice for your circumstances.

What happens if my Gas Safety certificate expires?

An overdue Gas Safety check can breach landlord duties and may lead to enforcement. Arrange the required check promptly and use current HSE guidance or qualified advice. Apex Heritage records and reminders do not determine legal compliance.
