Selective licensing
three designated areas covering 19 wards; 6 April 2025 to 5 April 2030. Check the property’s address against council maps, particularly near boundaries.

Rented Homes in Barking and Dagenham
Private renting in Barking and Dagenham grew from 17.7% of households in 2011 to 24.2% in 2021, across a varied housing stock. Becontree’s predominantly two-storey cottages include council tenancies and former right-to-buy homes now let privately. Barking town centre, Longbridge Road and Eastbury include terraces, converted flats and HMOs.
Thames View and Marks Gate add post-war flatted estates to that mix. The appointment should reflect the appliances actually present: a home without its own gas boiler may still have a landlord-provided gas hob. Do not infer a property’s heating arrangements from its estate or building type.
Gas Safety Services for Barking and Dagenham Landlords
Our services cover annual checks, combined boiler servicing, licensed homes and managed portfolios. We also provide gas safety checks for homeowners and buyers.
Landlord Gas Safety Certificates (CP12)
The annual check covers every landlord gas appliance and flue, including boilers, cookers, hobs, range cookers, gas fires and water heaters. Give existing tenants their record within 28 days and new tenants a copy before move-in. Keep records until two further checks have taken place.
CP12 and Boiler Service Together
Combine the annual safety check with a boiler service following the manufacturer’s schedule in one visit. These are distinct activities: servicing does not replace the landlord’s safety check. For a licensed rental, retain the CP12 and ask which separate service documentation you will receive. Book a.
HMO and Licensed Property Gas Safety
HMOs and homes within the borough’s selective licensing areas need accessible, current gas safety records where applicable. Housing Act 2004 Schedule 4 requires licence holders to produce the annual certificate on demand where gas is supplied. Include shared landlord-provided gas appliances when describing the property.
Letting Agents and Portfolios
Track each property’s renewal date so an early check falls within the two months before its deadline under regulation 36A. Arrange tenant access and identify every landlord-provided gas appliance before booking. Across the borough’s licensed rentals, keep each record matched to the correct address and licence file. See services for.
Gas Safety Enforcement in Barking and Dagenham
Gas safety enforcement makes an accurate, retrievable record essential for licensed properties in Barking and Dagenham. Keep the certificate available for council requests and check that its address, appliances and inspection date match the property.
Before the visit, check the engineer’s Gas Safe ID and relevant appliance categories. Verify registration through the Gas Safe Register; registration alone does not authenticate an individual certificate. Read how to check a gas safety certificate and verify an engineer.
What Is Changing for Barking and Dagenham Landlords
The 2025 licensing schemes changed which Barking and Dagenham rentals need licences following the previous selective scheme’s end in August 2024. The replacement selective scheme uses three designated areas, so check the address rather than relying on an old licence. These licensing changes do not replace the annual gas safety duty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a licensed rental need an annual CP12, and can servicing happen during the same visit?
Yes, a rental with landlord gas appliances needs an annual check, and the boiler service can take place during the same visit. The check and service remain separate activities. For licensed properties, keep the Landlord Gas Safety Record available to produce when the council requests it.
Does an unlicensed property still need a gas safety certificate?
Yes, a rented home with landlord gas appliances and flues still needs an annual safety check under regulation 36, even if no property licence is required. A licensing exemption does not remove that duty. Supply tenant copies and retain the records as required.
How early can I renew without losing the existing deadline?
You can have the check completed in the two months before the existing deadline and retain that deadline under regulation 36A. This is an early-check window, not a grace period after expiry. Use the current record to plan the appointment and arrange tenant access beforehand.
