How it works

  1. Enquiry

  2. Assessment

  3. Quote

  4. Completion

Stately covers Glenfield for gasfitting. When you contact us, explain that you are preparing for a property sale and need to understand the records alongside the installed equipment. A missing document and an appliance needing repair are separate matters. Keep both clear in your enquiry.

Build a file around each installation

Make a simple list of the gas hob, water heater, fireplace and any other gas appliances. Add the installation date if you know it, the installer’s name and any later alterations. Gather certificates, invoices, manuals and service records beside that list. Keep unknown details marked as unknown rather than estimating them.

Photograph accessible appliance labels so model details can be compared with paperwork. Keep covers in place. Record whether the property uses LPG or another confirmed supply. Check the supply at the address rather than inferring it from the suburb. This gives the gasfitter a useful starting point for matching records.

Read the scope before filing the certificate

Look at the address, description of work and appliances named on each certificate. A certificate for a hob installation should be filed against that job, not treated as a record for a later water heater replacement. Keep documents for separate stages together, with a short note explaining the sequence.

WorkSafe says connected gas work needs a Gas Safety Certificate. General and high risk gasfitting also needs a Certificate of Compliance. Those documents record different aspects of the work. An invoice helps trace the installer and job, but keep it separate from certification so a buyer can see exactly what you hold.

Follow up gaps with the original issuer

If a certificate is missing, contact the original installer or issuing business. Give the property address, approximate work date and invoice reference. Ask for a copy of the relevant record. Check your purchase files and emails too. Sometimes the useful attachment is filed under the appliance supplier rather than the installer.

If you cannot retrieve it, explain the gap when booking a gasfitter. Ask what inspection or work is appropriate for the equipment now installed. A current assessment cannot recreate the original installer’s record. Keep any new findings clearly dated and separate from historical documents, and ask your solicitor how to present the gap.

Separate present checks from historical paperwork

Tell us about changed appliances, disconnected equipment or concerns about operation. At the property, we check the installed arrangement against the described work and assess the relevant appliance, connections and supply. The visit should have a defined scope. Gathering documents alone cannot tell us whether a repair or replacement is needed.

Where work is needed, agree what will be repaired or installed before proceeding. The gasfitter checks requirements for the actual appliance and completes the relevant testing. Gas work must be done by a licensed gasfitter. Check the practitioner on the PGDB register rather than relying on a general plumbing description when arranging the work.

Leave a clear handover file

After agreed work, ask the gasfitter to explain what was checked, what was repaired or installed, and any outstanding action. Keep the applicable paperwork for the actual service or repair. A service visit should not be described as automatically requiring a Certificate of Compliance. File new documents beside the corresponding appliance records.

For the sale file, include a contents list and retain your own copies. Label inspection findings, service records and installation certificates separately. Give your solicitor the file early enough to raise questions before documents are requested under pressure. Clear labels help the next owner understand the equipment and follow its maintenance history. Keep the certification paperwork with your appliance records.

Gas fitter: questions from Glenfield

Does an invoice replace a gas certificate?

No. Use the invoice to trace the job and issuer. Request the relevant certificate separately.

Should I book repairs just because paperwork is missing?

Start by tracing the records. Tell the gasfitter about any appliance concerns so the assessment has a clear scope.

What if I smell gas while gathering records?

Stop searching. Avoid flames and electrical switches, leave the property, and call your gas supplier or emergency services from outside.
