CP12 gas safety records via WhatsApp.

For Gas Safe registered engineers and the firms that employ them. How the CP12 landlord gas safety record runs as a Quickler workflow, what the PDF looks like, and where the registered engineer's signature sits in the process.

Where the CP12 currently breaks down

A CP12 is a short document with the same set of appliance checks repeated for each gas appliance in the property. The trouble is the volume: a busy landlord servicing portfolio runs many CP12s a month, each captured on a paper pad, each retyped into a Word template, each delayed before it reaches the office.

The Quickler CP12 workflow

Each firm's CP12 question set is built during onboarding from their existing CP12 template, so the output matches what the firm already issues. The high-level shape:

  1. Property address and tenant contact go into the dashboard.
  2. The Gas Safe registered engineer opens WhatsApp on site and answers the appliance checks one by one, with photos.
  3. Defects flagged by the engineer appear on the dashboard.
  4. On completion the CP12 PDF is generated automatically.
  5. The Gas Safe registered engineer reviews and signs.
  6. Signed PDF goes to the landlord; an audit-trail copy stays in the dashboard.

Who signs

The Gas Safe registered engineer signs the CP12, exactly as on paper. Quickler does not bypass the registered-engineer requirement. The engineer reviews the generated PDF before signing — corrections take seconds.

Compliance note: only Gas Safe registered engineers can issue a CP12. Quickler handles the paperwork; it does not replace registration.

What the landlord receives

The landlord gets a formatted CP12 PDF carrying every check on every appliance, every photo, the engineer's signature, and the Gas Safe registration number. The format is built from your firm's existing CP12 template during onboarding so the output matches what you already issue.

Pricing

Per firm, not per engineer. For a gas servicing firm running CP12s as one of several workflows, the Business tier (£140 per month, twelve engineers, eight workflows) is typically the right fit. Full pricing.

Frequently asked questions

Who signs the CP12?

The Gas Safe registered engineer, exactly as on paper. Quickler does not bypass the registered-engineer requirement and does not validate registration in real time against the Gas Safe database — that remains the employing firm's responsibility.

Can I keep using my existing CP12 template wording?

Yes. The first onboarding step is to translate the firm's existing CP12 template into a Quickler workflow. The PDF output matches the existing format the firm already issues.

How are records kept for the required period?

Records are retained in line with the customer's own retention policy. Export available on request.
