Our registered engineers carry out annual gas safety checks to make sure that council homes that have a gas supply are safe and well-maintained.
We will contact you when your check is due – it is very important you keep your appointment or let us know if you need to rearrange it.
It is our legal duty to carry out a check every year and something that you agree to in your Tenancy Agreement. If we can’t get access to your property to carry out a check we may take legal action against you.
The risks of unsafe gas appliances include gas leaks, fires, explosions and carbon monoxide poisoning so the safety check really is for your benefit. Visit Gas safety (carbon monoxide) | Newcastle City Council for more information.
If you need to rearrange a gas safety check appointment, please let us know as soon as possible by calling 0191 278 8574.
