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 Lewisham as it does across England, and an HMO licence can add its own conditions on top.
Gas safety in Lewisham — local property context
Older terraced housing makes up a large part of Lewisham's stock, alongside flats in converted houses. Council tax records date 27.7% of properties to before 1900 (VOA 2025). At the 2021 Census, 26.2% of households lived in a terraced house and 16.3% in a flat in a converted or shared house.
At the 2021 Census, 33,289 Lewisham households rented privately. As of October 2026, selective licensing covers the borough except Telegraph Hill and part of Blackheath, and HMO licensing covers all of it. Our Gas Safe registered engineers are experienced with the boilers, gas fires and appliances typically found in properties across the SE6, SE13, SE23, SE8, SE4, SE14, SE26, SE12, BR1, SE3 postcode areas, and regularly carry out CP12 inspections across Lewisham for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.
