Selly Oak and Bournbrook are where a large share of Birmingham's students live, in the terraced streets between the Bristol Road and the university. Many of those houses are HMOs, let room by room, and every one with a gas appliance needs a gas safety check every twelve months.
The timing is what makes student lets different. Most tenancies change over in the summer, and the easiest time to do the check is in the gap between one group leaving and the next arriving, when the house is empty and every room can be reached. Leave it until September and you are trying to get into a house of six people with different timetables.
The check covers every gas appliance and flue the landlord supplies, usually the boiler and the cooker or hob. Each is tested for safe operation, flues and ventilation are checked, and the gas supply is tested for tightness. The result goes on the gas safety record, which must be given to the tenants.
Landlords with several houses in the area can have them checked on the same day or the same week, with certificates sent as each one is finished. If anything fails, you hear what and why, with a quote to put it right.
If you smell gas, leave the house, do not touch switches and ring the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999 from outside.
