At Sparklight, we work closely with landlords, letting agents and property managers to ensure all rental properties meet the required legal safety standards. Our landlord certification services are fast, reliable, and fully compliant with current UK regulations.

This ensures rental properties meet safety standards through inspections like the Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) & Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) for electrical systems and the Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) for gas appliances and pipework.

Whether you manage one property or a whole portfolio, Sparklight makes certification simple and stress-free.

What Do Landlords Need?

Under UK law, landlords must ensure their properties are safe for tenants. The key certifications required include:

⚡ EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report)

This report assesses the condition of all fixed electrical installations in a property. It identifies any faults, wear and tear, or potential safety risks.

  • Required at least every 5 years

  • Must be carried out by a qualified electrician

  • Includes a detailed inspection and written report

  • Remedial work (if needed) must be completed promptly

🔥 CP12 Gas Safety Certificate

Carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer, this certificate confirms that all gas appliances, flues and pipework are safe and in good working condition.

  • Required annually

  • Legal requirement before any new tenancy begins

  • A copy must be provided to tenants within 28 days of the check

🌿 Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)

The EPC rates your property’s energy efficiency and is valid for 10 years. You must have a valid EPC before letting your property, with a minimum rating of E or above for most rental properties in England.

We can help arrange or update your EPC and advise on ways to improve your rating.
