What you are booking

A commercial gas safety certificate is not a domestic CP12 with a different name

Commercial premises often have different appliance categories, fuel types, pipework, ventilation needs, access arrangements and duty-holder responsibilities. A small office boiler, a restaurant kitchen and a managed commercial unit can all need a different booking conversation before an appointment is confirmed.

This page is for customers who need a clear route to the right commercial gas inspection, not a generic price list. Tell us what the site is used for, what gas equipment is present and who can provide access. We can then confirm the right commercial gas certificate route, including CP42, CP17, CP15, CP16, commercial gas engineer work, boiler-related work, LPG checks or another compliance service.

Certificate intent

Which commercial gas safety certificate are you asking for?

Search results often group several commercial gas records under one phrase. Sending the right details at enquiry stage helps avoid confusion and supports a faster appointment confirmation.

CP42 commercial catering

Often requested by restaurants, cafes, takeaways, pubs, hotels, dark kitchens and other food businesses using gas catering equipment.

CP17 non-domestic gas installation

Often discussed for non-domestic gas installation checks where the site has commercial pipework, plant or appliances rather than a domestic landlord setup.

CP15, CP16 and specialist records

Useful where a commercial setting needs gas testing, purging, commissioning, plant, pipework or appliance-related records reviewed before the visit is confirmed.

Landlord or managing agent records

Helpful when a commercial unit, mixed-use property or managed portfolio needs paperwork for a tenant, insurer, lease renewal or handover.

Start with the closest route below. If you are not sure whether the request is CP42, CP17, CP15, CP16, LPG, boiler or another commercial gas record, send the site details through the main enquiry form and include the exact wording from the insurer, landlord, managing agent, council, facilities team or tenant.

Best first step: send the postcode, business type, appliance list, fuel type, certificate wording, access contact and deadline. This gives enough information to confirm the suitable route before the appointment is agreed.

Premises and use cases

Commercial gas safety certificate enquiries for real London sites

Commercial gas enquiries usually come from people dealing with access, trading hours, tenants, insurers, property managers or an expiring record. The booking needs enough site detail to route the enquiry properly.

Restaurants, cafes and takeaways

For catering premises, share the kitchen equipment, fuel type, ventilation or extract notes, trading hours and the best access contact for the inspection.

Offices, shops and retail units

For smaller business premises, send the boiler or appliance details, meter location and whether access is through a tenant, manager or key holder.

Managed commercial buildings

Facilities teams and property managers can provide site rules, plant room access, induction requirements and preferred appointment windows.

Commercial landlords and agents

If the inspection is connected to a lease, insurance request or handover, include the deadline and who should receive the appointment confirmation.

What we can issue or check

Commercial gas certificate routes we can issue or check

Commercial gas paperwork is not one-size-fits-all. Depending on the premises and engineer category, the enquiry may involve CP42, CP17, CP15, CP16, commercial boiler or plant records, LPG-related commercial gas paperwork or lease and handover evidence. Send the site details once and the route can be checked before the appointment is confirmed.

CP42 catering gas records

For restaurants, cafes, takeaways, commercial kitchens and catering appliances where the request is linked to kitchen gas safety paperwork.

CP17 commercial gas records

For non-domestic gas installations, landlord-controlled commercial systems, shops, offices, plant rooms and managed premises.

CP15 and CP16 requests

For commercial gas record wording, testing, commissioning, purging or site-specific requests where the requester has named CP15 or CP16.

Commercial boilers and plant

For boiler rooms, water heaters, commercial heating appliances, plant access, managed buildings and property compliance files.

Commercial LPG sites

For LPG cylinders, tanks, mobile catering, temporary sites, mixed-fuel premises and commercial units where fuel type affects the route.

Not sure which certificate name applies? Send the wording you have been given, the business type, appliance list, fuel type, postcode, access contact and deadline. This avoids booking the wrong route for a commercial kitchen, shop, office, boiler room, LPG site or landlord-managed unit.

These pages answer the practical questions customers ask before sending an enquiry, including costs, renewal timing, CP42 versus CP17, what details to send, landlord and tenant handover, and common restaurant kitchen issues.

London coverage

Commercial gas certificate pages by London area

Use a local borough page when the search is area-specific. Each page should still feed back into the main commercial gas certificate route when the enquiry is ready.

Trust and verification

Commercial gas work must match the engineer category, appliance and setting

Commercial gas work is carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers with the relevant qualification route for the gas work being requested. The site, fuel type, appliance category and certificate wording still need to be checked before an appointment is confirmed.

  • Gas Safe registration and the relevant commercial category route are checked against the commercial work requested.
  • Commercial gas enquiries can include catering equipment, non-domestic installations, boilers, pipework, plant, LPG and managed commercial premises.
  • Certificates and records may include CP42, CP17, CP15, CP16, commercial boiler-related paperwork or other relevant commercial gas records depending on the site.
  • Insurance or qualification evidence should be confirmed against the current job and engineer before attendance where the requester needs formal proof for a lease, insurer or compliance file.

Gas Safe registration

Commercial customers can use the Gas Safe Register to check the business or engineer and confirm the relevant commercial gas work category.

Check the Gas Safe Register

Certificate evidence

Send the exact wording requested by your insurer, landlord, managing agent, local authority, lease file or internal compliance team.

Commercial catering guidance

Restaurants, cafes and takeaways should describe gas-fired catering appliances, extraction or ventilation notes and trading-hour access.

Read HSE catering guidance

Insurance and paperwork

If the certificate is needed for insurance, lease renewal or handover, include the deadline and ask for any proof your file requires before the visit.

Clear appointment confirmation

Once the site details are reviewed, the next suitable appointment is confirmed by phone or email with access notes for the engineer.

Before you book

How to verify the commercial gas appointment is suitable

Commercial gas competence should be checked against the actual work needed, not only the company name. If your insurer, landlord, managing agent or compliance file needs evidence, confirm these details before the appointment is booked.

Gas Safe registration

Ask for the current Gas Safe registration details and check them against the official register before commercial gas work starts.

Relevant commercial category

Confirm that the engineer route matches the site and work, such as catering equipment, non-domestic installation, boilers, LPG, pipework or plant.

Fuel and appliance match

Share whether the site uses natural gas or LPG and list the main appliances, so the appointment can be matched to the correct commercial gas work.

Certificate or record expected

Tell us whether you need CP42, CP17, CP15, CP16, a commercial boiler record or another certificate wording for your file.

Insurance or qualification evidence

If your insurer, lease or managing agent asks for proof, request the relevant evidence before attendance so it can be checked against the job.

Paperwork recipient

Confirm who should receive the certificate or report, especially where the enquiry involves a tenant, landlord, managing agent or facilities team.

Dedicated enquiry form

Send the commercial gas details once

This form asks for the details that matter on commercial gas jobs: certificate type, business setting, fuel type, appliances, access and deadline. That helps avoid a slow back-and-forth before the appointment route is confirmed.

    Common questions

    Commercial gas safety certificate FAQs

    What is a commercial gas safety certificate?

    A commercial gas safety certificate is a record issued after a suitable commercial gas safety inspection. The exact record can depend on the premises, appliance category, fuel type and commercial setting. Customers often ask about CP42 for commercial catering, CP17 for non-domestic gas installation checks, CP15, CP16 or other commercial gas records.

    Do restaurants, cafes and takeaways need CP42?

    Commercial kitchens that use gas catering equipment are commonly asked for a CP42 commercial catering gas safety record. The booking should include the business type, equipment list, fuel type, ventilation or extract details and access notes so the enquiry can be checked correctly.

    What is the difference between CP42, CP17 and CP12?

    CP42 is commonly associated with commercial catering gas safety. CP17 is commonly associated with non-domestic gas installation safety checks. CP15, CP16 and other records may apply to different commercial gas testing, purging, appliance or installation situations. CP12 is normally used for domestic rented homes. Send the site and appliance details before booking so the correct route can be confirmed.

    How often should a commercial gas safety certificate be renewed?

    Many commercial sites arrange gas safety records annually, especially where a landlord, insurer, managing agent or local authority expects current paperwork. If you already have a record, send the expiry date with your enquiry so the appointment can be prioritised properly.

    What details should I send before booking?

    Send the business address, postcode, site type, appliance list if known, fuel type, gas meter or plant room location, access contact, preferred appointment time and any expiry, insurance or property management deadline.

    Can I book commercial gas with other compliance certificates?

    Yes. Commercial customers often ask about gas, electrical, non-domestic EPC, fire alarm, emergency lighting or fire risk assessment work around the same deadline. Send every certificate needed at the start so the enquiry can be handled efficiently.
