Opinions lads, idiot letting agent content

Ok story, go to do cp12. Boiler fails, noted on form and sent off to landlord. Landlord sends to Reid reins, Boiler replaced week later. Agent wants another cp12 after boiler fitted I said building regs and benchmark is all that's required due to cp12 lasting for a year and is not a pass or fail document. Landlord emails me this response from the clown at reed reins estate agency!

what say thee, clowns email below

'i have tried (several times), it goes to voicemail (i have left voicemails previously which have not been returned)

he is 100% incorrect, which is scary, i will take this up with gas safe as it sounds like he needs to be re-examined as a competent operative within the industry! ...i hope that it is just that he does not understand the 1998 housing act and HSE regulations, and is not struggling with gas safe guidelines too! ...of course when offering a service to landlords a basic understanding of all three is kind of essential!

sorry to drag you into this, you'd think for the time it takes to write out a piece of paper he'd be a little more helpful!

from our point of view, the house currently has gas appliances not currently certified as safe under a landlords gas safety certificate which is a legal requirement, whatever his opinion on the matter, the liability for this falls to you in the event of any problems i am simply looking after your interests none of us want a problem!

You dont need to cp12 a newly installed appliance as it will be installed and commissioned to gas safe regs.

Pen pusher.

Open season.....

I asked this question before, the appliance doesn't need to be certified but the pipework etc needs to be checked even if the boiler is new.

This scum bag is now trying to claim that he was not questioning my competence and that I should just reissue the cert. I will do it but I'm waiting for a unreserved apology from the scum bag jobs worth. Would love to pay this grease ball a visit with my stil sons! /and breath... Think of the blood pressure.....

 

[Killy Bing]

Refrence back the email and ask how is that not questioning your competency.

I would also poke if they can get it that wrong without appology then maybe the landlords should look into a more competent letting agency.....

 

[iain85]

Great at minds think alike lad. Already done.

il show you the emails the smarmy mouth breather sent me on Monday and my replies.

Dont nut want to waste my energy/Saturday evening on this **** but I'm not having it.....

You done one cp12 so next one is chargeable aswell. Pipework and meter covered on last one?

Do them even on a LL repair now as it's extra £45 plus vat and avoids all this pish
