Do you give a price before you start?

Yes, always. We give you a clear price before we start. That is the price on the invoice. Still not sure? Give Mo a call on 07988 591331.

Do you carry out CP12 checks on HMO properties in the Southside?

Yes. HMO properties across the Southside including Govanhill, Shawlands and Pollokshields are something we deal with regularly. We check all gas appliances in the property, deal with tenants directly for access if needed, and issue the certificate to the landlord or letting agent the same day. Call 07988 591331.

Are your engineers Gas Safe registered?

Yes, every engineer. Ask to see the ID card when we arrive. Any legitimate gas engineer will show you without question. Still not sure? Give Mo a call on 07988 591331.

My Southside rental property has a gas fire as well as a boiler, does that affect the CP12?

Yes. Every gas appliance in the property must be included in the CP12 inspection. Gas fires are one of the items we check carefully as older fires can develop faults that are not obvious to non-engineers. We inspect the fire, check the flue and confirm safe operation before including it in the certificate.

The previous owner of my Southside rental has a CP12, do I need a new one?

Yes. The CP12 runs with the tenancy and the landlord, not the property. If you have recently purchased a rental property you need your own gas safety check carried out before the first tenant moves in, regardless of when the previous owner's certificate was issued. Call 07988 591331 and we can usually attend within a few days.

Plumbing in Southside, What We Know About This Area

The Southside of Glasgow has a well-established private rental market. Areas like Govanhill, Pollokshields and Shawlands have some of the highest concentrations of privately rented flats in the city, with large Victorian tenements subdivided into flats that are popular with young professionals, students and families. This means there is a consistent and ongoing demand for CP12 gas safety certificates from landlords and letting agents operating in this part of Glasgow.

The older gas appliances common in Southside tenements make the annual inspection particularly important. Some properties still have gas fires alongside the boiler. Older boilers that have not been serviced regularly can develop faults that become apparent during a CP12 inspection. Flue integrity on older properties is something we pay particular attention to in the Southside, where original flue runs in tenement buildings can deteriorate over time. A certificate cannot be issued if we find an immediately dangerous fault, which is why we advise landlords to keep on top of annual servicing alongside the annual CP12 check.

We carry out CP12 checks across the Southside on a regular basis and know the area and its housing stock well. Govanhill in particular has a high density of older rental properties where we often find appliances that have not been checked for longer than they should have been. Shawlands converted flats typically have more modern installations. Pollokshields properties tend to be larger with more gas appliances to inspect, which means the inspection takes a little longer. We account for all of this when we quote.

The Jobs We Get Called For Most in Southside

These are the plumbing problems that come up most often in Southside properties.

Old gas fires alongside the boiler

Many Southside tenements still have original gas fires. These must be included in the CP12 inspection. Old gas fires are one of the most common sources of faults we find during Southside safety checks.

Flue deterioration in older buildings

Original flue runs in Victorian tenements can deteriorate over time. A failed flue flow test means we cannot issue a certificate until the flue is repaired. We quote for repairs on site.

Boilers not serviced for extended periods

Rental properties in Govanhill and Pollokshields sometimes have boilers that have not been serviced for years. Accumulated scale and worn components can result in failures during the safety check that need to be resolved before certification.

Multiple gas appliances in larger properties

Larger Southside properties often have a boiler, gas fire and gas cooker all requiring inspection. We allow sufficient time and our quote reflects the number of appliances.

“Our radiator pipe was bent and leaking. They answered straight away… Guy was here an hour later and he was wearing ID, very professional, patient and kind. We just got a new carpet in this room and he done an amazing job on getting little to no water on it. Couldn't recommend enough, price was reasonable.”

“We lost heating just in time for the coldest day of the year with a baby in the house… When I contacted them they were ready to dispatch that night. Fixed by the afternoon. Quoted that morning and no extra charges were added. Honestly cannot thank them enough.”

“As a small business owner, I needed a drainage company that could respond quickly. The team attended first thing in the morning, cleared the blocked drain and carried out a full CCTV survey. All documentation emailed across promptly. Professional, efficient and great value for money.”
