We offer Landlord Oil Boiler Servicing and Safety Checks with Certification

In addition to insurance requirements in Northern Ireland landlords are required to provide the following

Housing standards

The landlord is responsible for ensuring any property they let to tenants meets the fitness standard. The landlord should check the property:

• can provide adequate heating, ideally a controllable central heating system and insulation, with equipment and the fabric of the building in good repair

• has electricity and gas supplies, and the sanitation (drains, basins, sinks, baths and WCs) in working order

• has no fall or trip hazards

• has water heating equipment in working order

• is free from damp

Carbon monoxide (CO)

Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless gas which is difficult to detect. It is formed when domestic fuels such as gas, coal or wood are burned and can cause serious brain injuries or even death.

The landlord must make sure all fuel burning appliances are installed in well-ventilated rooms and regularly maintained by a suitably qualified engineer.

They should also fit a suitable CO alarm in the house or in an area where there is a boiler like a garage or outbuilding.
