Landlord Compliance Bundle in Solihull
Arrange a Landlord Compliance Bundle for your Solihull rental without the ring-around: we confirm price and availability, the certificate arrives digitally, and the renewal date is tracked for you.
Straight answer
A landlord compliance bundle books the recurring certificates together — the annual gas safety record, the 5-yearly EICR where the nation requires it, the EPC when due, and alarm checks — instead of piecemeal. For a rental in Solihull, that means fewer visits, aligned renewal dates, and one organised file of documents.

The law
The rules behind the certificate
No law requires bundling — each certificate keeps its own statutory basis, cycle and penalties. What the law does punish is lapses, and they compound: unlimited fines for gas offences, up to £30,000 per EICR breach in England, up to £5,000 for MEES or alarm breaches, blocked Section 21 notices in England, and licensing consequences where Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council holds conditions. Tracking the set together is how the lapses stop.
The bundle is a convenience, not a legal product: your CP12, EICR, EPC, alarm check and PAT record are each issued under their own rules, by appropriately qualified professionals, on their own renewal cycles. We coordinate the diary so nothing lapses.
Penalties stated are statutory maximums or court-set; Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council is the local housing authority for Solihull.
Credentials
Who you're letting in
The question to ask any bundle seller: who exactly signs each certificate? Every document has its own legally required registration, and no single qualification covers the set. We name the registration behind each line of the bundle and check it — the convenience is in the coordination, never in cut corners on who does the work.
Pricing
What the bundle costs
Bundle pricing is the sum of the parts minus the overlap: shared callouts, combined visits and one round of scheduling instead of four. The guidance range reflects a typical gas-supplied single let taking the core set; HMO extras — fire doors, higher-grade alarms, PAT — price on top per the property. As always: guidance until the property details are confirmed.

Letting in Solihull: the practical points
Portfolio landlords in Solihull feel the bundle effect most: one calendar across properties, one document standard, one renewal rhythm — and when Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council, a lender or a buyer asks for the compliance position, the answer is a folder, not a fortnight of phone calls.
The inspection
How the bundle is assembled
The assembly is per-nation by design: Scotland's version includes interlinked alarm standards and Repairing Standard checks; Wales's runs on the Renting Homes framework; Northern Ireland's drops the EICR (no general duty) while keeping gas, EPC and fitness-standard items. What stays constant is the principle — every certificate from a correctly registered professional, on one calendar.
FAQ
Common questions about the Combined compliance visit (individual certificates issued per service)
How do the different renewal cycles fit together?
Gas is annual; the EICR runs on a cycle of up to 5 years; the EPC lasts 10 years and matters when re-letting; alarms are evidenced at each tenancy start. A bundle aligns the annual visit as the anchor and slots the longer cycles in as they fall due.
Can everything be done in one visit?
Often two trades are involved — a Gas Safe engineer for gas, an electrician for the EICR and PAT — so a bundle is commonly one coordinated day or two scheduled visits rather than literally one person. Alarm checks and legionella review can ride along with either.
What needs redoing when tenants change?
Alarms must be shown working at the start of the new tenancy (England), the new tenant needs copies of the gas record, EICR and EPC, and a void period is the natural moment to flush water systems and review the legionella assessment. The certificates themselves stay valid to their own expiry dates.
What paperwork should I hold at any given time?
The current gas record and the previous two years', the in-date EICR with any remedial confirmations, the EPC, alarm test evidence per tenancy, and any licence-specific certificates. Digital copies organised per property answer most agent, council and lender requests.
What does a Solihull rental legally need in the bundle?
For most gas-supplied rentals: an annual gas safety record, an EICR at least every 5 years (England, Scotland and Wales), a valid EPC when letting, and compliant smoke and CO alarms. Property-specific extras — HMO fire doors, PAT for supplied appliances — depend on your setup and licence conditions.
