Yes if paid, no if your not, including if not paid in rented property.



The obvious exception regarding the gas safety cert.

Not so.

There was a case in which a landlord had installed a gas appliance in one of his rented-out flats (second-hand gas fire ISTR). There was an accident.
It was argued he hadn't been paid, and did not have to be Corgi/Gas Safe.

M'lud ruled he was paid by the collection of the rents and should not have done his own gas work.


Please cite, as its the first I have heard of this. The only exceptions
might be where the landlord is truly incompetent.
