Gas Safety Certificates (CP12) in Dewsbury

Much of the landlord gas safety work Pickles Gas does in Dewsbury arrives from letting agents and landlords with several properties rather than one. WF12 and WF13 have one of the busiest private rental markets on the patch, and an agent with a list of terraces across Ravensthorpe, Thornhill, Savile Town and Earlsheaton needs the renewals to happen without chasing. That is how it is set up: a list of addresses and expiry dates, tenants contacted for access, inspections grouped by area, and every Landlord Gas Safety Record sent to the office and invoiced to the agency directly.

The properties themselves are largely stone and brick terraces built for mill workers, often with a boiler that has been in place a long time and a gas cooker of similar vintage. Each appliance is inspected and operated, the flue is checked for condition and clearance, the visible pipework is examined and pressure-tested, and ventilation and safety devices are confirmed. Where something fails, the agent gets a plain description of what was found and what it would take to put right, so the landlord can make a decision rather than a guess.

Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 the check is due every twelve months, tenants must receive a copy within 28 days, incoming tenants must have one before moving in, and records are kept for two years. Pickles Gas issues the certificate on the day so those deadlines are met with room to spare, and an annual reminder is offered per property. Huddersfield, where the business is based, sits in the same Kirklees borough, so Dewsbury is regular ground. Gas Safe registration 962740 can be checked before any booking is made.
