Tightness test is NOT a legal requirement its only on CP12 form in case you do it and if customer requests it !! most of CP12 work is visual inspection, ring gas safe they will tell you what is required to cover your arse !!!!
Welcome to the forum. Although you can post in any forum, the USA forum is here in case of local regs or laws

Most housing associations ask for them though and it gives you 5 minutes to fill out your paper work
That's what I was pointing out , housing associations act , want it done, but there is no obligation to do it, in fact you could charge extra to do one if asked, but we all do it as a standard thing,

That's what I did as soon as I was qualified, both oil and gas. Helps no end, especially where I live as Internet connections are so sporadic around here.
I use a pdf reader called iAnnotate and you can highlight parts of the MI for ease of reading as well as adding bookmarks to different sections. It probably saves me a couple of hours a week.
Im in pretty much the same position as the OP so thank you for the help from you guys.
Ive made my own service sheet and wonder if any of you can tell me if ive missed anything or if I should take anything out cheers.

This forum isn't that mobile friendly is it?
I can't view the image really so can't make a judgement but what I could see looked OK.

Got to a job today and found that the 6 year old boiler was only hanging on one part of the bracket. Called the gaffer who then told me to just note it down and he'll get someone out to drain down and rehang! What would you lot do in those circumstances? It's seems like the cp12 being issued is the most important thing

If it's that bad/unstable it should be rectified immediately (by the time you make it safe, you're halfway to rehanging it properly)
If it fell off after you left and you deemed it safe, it would be you in the shyte not your gaffer

I took a similar job last year with a local firm here in Devon, on the books, 30k with new van, pension, health care and usual benefits. Started off just servicing and now mainly breakdowns with a few services thrown in between. 6-8 jobs a day, I really enjoy it. Only take on services and breakdowns now on a Saturday to top up the dosh. Lot less stress than the old days
Its roughly what I get too - tbh 18 months ago I was working for free so I'm happy!!! 🙂
