1. Property compliance in South London

South London spans a huge geographic area, and the compliance picture changes as you move across it. Inner boroughs like Lambeth and Southwark are dense with period conversions and estates where electrical systems and shared services need regular inspection, while Croydon and the outer south have large volumes of flats and HMOs that require annual gas checks, EICRs and energy ratings. Many South London landlords hold small portfolios spread across several of these boroughs, which is where a single provider handling gas, electrical, EPC and fire in one coordinated visit saves real time and money. We keep track of renewal dates so nothing slips.

Q: Can I bundle certificates for a South London portfolio?

Yes. Combining gas, electrical and EPC into coordinated visits across your South London properties reduces call-out fees and makes renewal dates far easier to manage.

Q: How do you keep track of my renewal dates?

When we issue your certificates we note the expiry dates, and can remind you ahead of renewal so your South London properties never fall out of compliance.

2. Landlord safety certificates we provide across South London

Property Safety Ltd is a London property safety service provider. We carry out every core landlord compliance inspection and issue your certificate once the work is complete. The legal responsibility for compliance stays with you as the landlord (the “Responsible Person”) — our job is to make meeting it simple, accurate and fast. Below are the main certificates South London landlords need.

2.1 Gas Safety Certificate (CP12)

A Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) is a legal requirement for any let property with gas appliances, and must be renewed at least every 12 months. Our Gas Safe registered engineers check every appliance, flue and pipe, then issue your CP12 record. Failing to hold a valid certificate is a criminal offence, so keeping this current is one of the most important things a landlord can do.

2.2 EICR (Electrical Safety Certificate)

An EICR confirms your property’s fixed wiring is safe. Private landlords in England must have the installation inspected at least every five years, and provide the report to tenants. Our engineers test to the BS 7671 standard and explain any C1, C2 or C3 codes clearly, so you know exactly what — if anything — needs attention.

2.3 Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)

An EPC rates a property’s energy efficiency and is required before you market it to let. It is valid for ten years. With minimum energy standards tightening over the coming years, an up-to-date EPC also helps you plan ahead.

2.4 Fire Risk Assessment (FRA)

A Fire Risk Assessment is a legal requirement for HMOs, blocks of flats and commercial premises. We assess fire risks in the property and communal areas and set out the actions needed to keep occupants safe. Given the number of HMOs across South London, this is a common requirement here. Need more than the essentials? We also provide other compliance services including asbestos and legionella surveys. Q: Do you cover the whole of South London? Yes. We serve all of South London, including Southwark, Lambeth, Lewisham, Croydon and Wandsworth, and the surrounding areas within the M25. Q: I have properties in several South London boroughs — can you do them together? Yes. We regularly help South London landlords with portfolios spread across boroughs, coordinating visits and tracking renewal dates across all their properties.
