What is a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12)?
A Gas Safety Certificate, formally known as a CP12, is a document confirming that all gas appliances, flues and pipework in a rental property have been inspected by a Gas Safe Registered engineer and found to be safe. The engineer checks each appliance for correct operation, adequate ventilation, secure flue connections and correct gas pressure, and lists every appliance on the certificate along with its result.
Every private landlord in England has been legally required to hold a valid CP12 and renew it every 12 months since the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 came into force. This national duty applies in Barking & Dagenham as it does across England, and an HMO licence can add its own conditions on top.
Gas safety in Barking & Dagenham — local property context
The Becontree Estate, which the council puts at about 29,000 homes across 11 wards, is mainly two- and three-storey terraces and cottages in red brick or render, with tall brick chimneys. Across the borough, 68.8% of households live in a house, while purpose-built flats house 27.7%, against 40.3% across London (Census 2021).
The council said in January 2025 that private renting, its fastest-growing tenure, covers "nearly a third of all homes", above the 24.2% counted at Census 2021. Our Gas Safe registered engineers are experienced with the boilers, gas fires and appliances typically found in properties across the IG11, RM8, RM10, RM9, RM6, RM7 postcode areas, and regularly carry out CP12 inspections across Barking & Dagenham for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.

Gas certificates for a Barking and Dagenham licence: in date when checked
Where the home has gas, the gas safety certificate is one of the documents the council checks before the inspection that every licensed property gets. Its guidance says out-of-date documents rule out the selective licence discount, so make sure the certificate is still in date when you upload it.
