Gas Safety Advisory Visit

What a Gas Safety Advisory Visit covers

This visit is designed to investigate concerns, confirm whether an installation is operating safely, and help you decide what to do next.

• Visual inspection of accessible gas appliances, pipework and connections.
• Safety checks and performance testing where appropriate.
• Investigation of common issues such as gas smells, sooting, poor combustion, nuisance shutdowns or suspected leaks.
• Checks on ventilation and flue arrangements that affect safe operation.
• Clear explanation of findings and the level of risk.
• Written recommendations for any remedial work or further testing.

When this service is the right fit

This service is ideal if you want reassurance or a professional second opinion without booking a full landlord certificate.

• You have noticed a gas smell, staining/sooting, or unusual appliance behaviour.
• You have moved into a property and want a safety check for peace of mind.
• You are a landlord or business owner dealing with a tenant or staff concern and need a prompt assessment.
• You want to understand whether repair, isolation, or replacement is the safest option.

What happens during the visit

A Gas Safe registered engineer attends site, discusses the symptoms you have seen, then carries out appropriate checks and tests. If an unsafe situation is found, you will be advised on immediate safety steps, which can include isolating an appliance.

After the visit

You will receive a clear summary of what was checked, what was found, and what actions are recommended. If a formal record is required (for example a Landlord Gas Safety Record), you can book the correct certification visit once any issues have been addressed.
