Gas Safe registration renewal
Annual registration with Gas Safe, including the fee and the proof of the qualifications held on the licence.
For plumbers
Gas, water and landlord deadlines for a working plumber
Gas registration, unvented tickets and landlord safety records run on their own clocks, none of them aligned to the working week.
No account needed to see the proposed desk.
The recurring work
What plumbers have to keep on top of
Every one of these has a date attached, a document behind it, and somebody who notices when it slips. This is what goes on the desk.
Gas Safe inspection
The technical inspection Gas Safe carries out on registered businesses, booked in and passed to keep the registration valid.
ACS certification
Core and appliance assessments renewed on a five-year cycle, with the expiry tracked against the licence rather than the calendar year.
Landlord gas safety records
An annual CP12 at each managed property, which has to be issued within twelve months of the last one rather than at the end of the tenancy.
Unvented hot water qualification
The unvented cylinder ticket, refreshed on its own cycle, without which the cylinder work cannot be certified.
Water regulations and backflow certification
The WRAS or water regulations qualification and the notification of work to the water undertaker where a fitting is reportable.
Legionella and water hygiene assessments
Risk assessments and refreshers for the commercial and landlord work where water systems sit unused or stored.
Waste carrier licence
The upper tier waste carrier registration with the Environment Agency, renewed every three years, with the certificate carried in the van.
Public liability renewal
Annual policy renewal at the level the letting agents, housing providers and main contractors require before releasing work.
Combustion analyser calibration
Annual calibration and cell replacement on the flue gas analyser, with the certificate kept for inspection.
What it costs to carry it
Emergency call-outs eat the working day, so the admin slides into the evening and the renewal dates are the first thing to slip. The expensive failure is a Gas Safe registration or inspection left too late, because nothing gas-related can be signed off until it is current, and the landlord's CP12 dates do not move to suit a backlog. A missed waste carrier renewal is the kind of thing that surfaces at a tip or at the worst possible moment.
What the desk takes over
The desk works this list to its own schedule and reports what it did.
Registration and licence dates
Gas Safe, ACS, unvented, waste carrier and policy dates held with the body, the fee and the renewal reference recorded.
Landlord record calendar
Every CP12 held against its property with the twelve-month date worked forward, so the next one is booked before the current record expires.
Inspection preparation
Certification, calibration and insurance evidence gathered before a Gas Safe inspection, with anything missing chased in advance.
Notification returns
Reportable water fittings notified to the undertaker, and the reference filed against the job.
The dated record
A note of what was recorded, notified and renewed, with the reference, ready when a landlord or an inspector asks.
What stays with the plumber
The gas work, the judgement on a fault and the signature on the safety record belong to the registered person, and the desk does not touch them. It works the dates and the paperwork that sit either side of that signature.
Questions
Can the desk keep the CP12 calendar for a landlord's properties?
Each property is held with its last record date, and the next annual check is raised as work with the address and the appliance list ready.
Does it handle water regulations notifications?
It records the reportable fitting, prepares the notification to the water undertaker and files the reference against the job. Where the undertaker's own form needs a signature, it is handed over.
What happens if a Gas Safe inspection is due?
The inspection is raised early, with the certificates, calibration records and insurance documents assembled so nothing has to be found on the day.
