Landlord Safety Certificates & Compliance
Gas, electrical and appliance safety certificates for landlords, managing agents and property companies across York and North Yorkshire. Blackwell & Denton FM Ltd are Gas Safe registered and an NICEIC Approved Contractor, so the inspection, the certificate and any remedial work all come from the same team.
Inspected, certified and put right by one contractor
The frustrating part of compliance is rarely the inspection — it is chasing a second contractor to clear the failures, then a third to reissue the paperwork. We do all of it, and we tell you when the next one is due.
Gas Safety Record (CP12)
Annual Landlord Gas Safety Record on boilers, fires, hobs and water heaters by Gas Safe registered engineers, with the certificate issued to you and the tenant.
EICR — Electrical Installation Condition Report
The five-yearly fixed wire inspection required for rented property, with coded observations explained plainly and remedials priced separately rather than assumed.
PAT testing (portable appliances)
Appliance testing for furnished lets and HMOs, with items labelled and a full asset register supplied for your records.
Emergency lighting testing & certification
Function and duration testing for communal areas and HMOs, with faulty fittings replaced and the test log maintained.
Smoke & carbon monoxide alarms
Alarm provision checked against the requirements for the property, units supplied and fitted where they are missing, and testing recorded at each visit.
Remedial works after a failed report
C1 and C2 observations, failed appliances and unsafe installations put right by our own engineers, then the report reissued as satisfactory.
HMO & communal area compliance
Licensed HMOs need more: communal lighting, fire doors, alarm systems, emergency lighting and escape route checks all inspected and documented together.
Boiler servicing alongside the certificate
A safety record is a check, not a service. We can service the appliance on the same visit so it keeps working as well as passing.
Void & change-of-tenancy checks
Between tenancies we check gas, electrics, appliances and alarms in one visit, so a property goes back on the market compliant and working.
Renewal tracking across a portfolio
We hold your expiry dates and contact you before they lapse, which matters more when you have thirty properties than when you have one.
Certificates stored & reissued
Copies kept on file and resent whenever an agent, insurer, council or solicitor asks — without you digging through old emails.
Reactive repairs under the same agreement
When a tenant reports a fault between inspections, the same team attends, and contract customers hold agreed response times.

One property or a handful around York: you want the certificate in date, the tenant happy and no surprise bills. We book directly with your tenant and keep you informed.

Six steps, start to finish
Tell us the properties
Address, type, what appliances are in and which certificates you hold or need. A spreadsheet or a phone call both work.
Pricing & booking
Clear per-property pricing, then we arrange access — directly with tenants where you would rather not chase them.
Inspection & testing
Gas, electrical, appliance and alarm checks carried out by our own Gas Safe and NICEIC engineers, with photographs taken.
Certificates issued
Paperwork produced promptly and sent to you and, where required, the tenant — not weeks later when someone asks for it.
Remedials, if any
Anything that failed is quoted separately and clearly. Approve it and we carry it out, then reissue the report.
Renewal tracking
Expiry dates held on file and a reminder sent before they run out, so the next inspection is booked in time.
What every compliance visit includes
We will not sign off something that is not safe
If an appliance is unsafe or an installation has a danger present, we will isolate it, tell you and the tenant why, and explain what it takes to make it right. That can be inconvenient and occasionally expensive — but a certificate that hides a problem protects nobody, least of all you. Equally, we will not inflate a report to generate remedial work: if an observation is minor, it gets coded as minor and you decide what to do about it.
Compliance sits inside our facilities work, not beside it
Gas Safe heating, NICEIC Approved electrical work, twenty years of appliance repairs, planned maintenance, cleaning and 24/7 reactive call-outs all come from the same Clifton Moor team. One contractor holds your certificates, clears the remedials and answers the phone when a tenant calls at midnight.
