Does landlord certificate include a boiler service?

[plumb_know]

Hi everyone,

just wondering does a landlord certificate include a boiler service or would this need to be done as well as a landlord certificate?

thanks

To produce a landlords certificate is not a service . This can, and is best to do at the same time. But will cost the landlord extra.

is you car given a service when you get it MOTed?

No it isnt but some certificate pads do have the question :- Is it serviced ? which if yes comes at an extra charge ontop of the cert, me personally i think it should all be done at the same time , as folks think because they get a gas cert they dont need a service ,,,

Thanks kris, yeah as it costs more for landlord certificate wasn't sure if it was just a boiler service with added service on other appliances. Thanks for info

what are you accusing me of agreeing with?

But the landlord is required to service and maintain the appliance. You should always make a point of telling them this. Standard wall mounted boiler and cooker say £40 plus vat for cp12 and if no gaskets ect req then it's £65 plus all serviced. As a cp12 requires appliance to be stripped for inspection = 80% of a service? But no a service is not £25

ouch, £75 service, and my llc is £65, so I hit them for £85 and parts for both, got to be competitive, then the custard feels you have done a decent job. Mind you no coffee and £10 is automatically added

We tend to "condemn" a lot of appliances.

ooooh harsh but profitable
