Gas Safety

I am in the process of letting for the first time and have just reveived the Gas Safety Certificate.
At the bottom it says "Gas Meter requires bonding" and there is a tickbox which says "Equipotential Bonding satisfactory: NO"
Do I have to have this done or is it just an advisory?
Thanks
Andrew

Ask the person who issued the certificate for advice. That said, if they issued the certificate then it is probably just an advisory.0

As N79 says. (hi 79 - you been away?)
Mind you, even if it is just advisory I would have it done. Bonding is quick and cheap (basically just the min labour charge), and it covers you from any H&S risk.
Have you read this, and all the links:
New Landlords (general information for new or prospective landlords)
edit: to N79 - not a bad day, but perhaps being a bit rash (see other thread). We all make mistakes but thankfully on a forum like this there are others to correct us!0 -
