Your Safety, Our Priority – C4UK

Renting a property in Surrey—whether you’re a landlord, tenant, or student—comes with essential responsibilities. At C4UK, we make it simple to stay safe, legal, and informed about gas regulations.

As a landlord in Surrey, it is a legal duty to keep your tenants safe. This includes:

  • Annual Gas Safety Check: You must arrange a yearly gas safety inspection by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
  • CP12 Certificate: After a successful inspection, you’ll receive a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) which must be provided to your tenant within 28 days.
  • Appliance Maintenance: All gas appliances, flues, and pipework must be maintained in a safe condition.
  • Carbon Monoxide Alarms: These are required in rooms with solid fuel appliances, and strongly recommended for all rooms with a gas appliance.

Gas Safety for Tenants

If you’re renting in Surrey, your landlord is legally required to:

  • Give you a copy of the Landlord’s Gas Safety Record (CP12) before you move in or within 28 days of inspection.
  • Ensure all gas appliances and flues are safely maintained.

But as a tenant, you should also:

  • Allow access to the property for inspections or repairs.
  • Report any concerns about gas appliances or the smell of gas immediately.

Visit our Tenant Gas Safety Info to learn what to expect.

Gas Safety for Students in Rented Accommodation

Students often rent Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs), which fall under strict safety regulations:

  • Ensure your landlord provides a current Gas Safety Certificate (CP12).
  • Look out for carbon monoxide alarms and ventilation.
  • Ask for confirmation that a Gas Safe registered engineer has checked the appliances.
