Gas Safety

We are committed to ensuring your safety within your home.

We are required, by law, to carry out safety checks on all gas appliances at least once a year to ensure they comply with gas safety regulations.

We will notify you when you are due a gas safety check. One of our gas contractors will contact you to arrange a suitable time to visit your home to complete the service.

The annual gas safety check is a free service.

Annual Gas Safety Checks

Gas safety is very important, and we are working hard to ensure that your home is gas safe. We carry out annual gas safety checks in every Radius home.

We will notify you when you are due a gas safety check and the assigned contractor for your area will be in contact to arrange an appointment date and time. Your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors will also be checked.

We have three approved gas contractors:-

  • ATS Gas Services
  • Combined Facilities Management (CFM)
  • CTS Projects

​Allowing Access To Your Home

It’s a condition of your tenancy agreement to allow us into your home once a year to inspect and service gas equipment. It is essential that you allow our contractors access to your home to carry out the gas safety check to ensure the safety of your household and those around you.


​Identifying Your Contractor

One of our approved gas contractors will ensure your home is gas safe through a yearly inspection. The engineer will carry ID and show this to you before entering your home.

Your Gas Safety Check

The engineer will:

  • test the pipes between the gas meter and the boiler or heater for leaks;
  • service all the gas appliances in the property that are provided by Radius;
  • check any gas flues in the property;
  • check all gas ventilation;
  • check smoke alarms/CO2 Alarms.

We will provide you with a gas safety certificate within 28 days of the inspection. The gas safety check and service will usually take less than an hour, although this will depend on the gas appliances in your home.

Please note: If, after two attempts, our contractor is unable to gain access to your home, we will cap the gas supply to your boiler.
