Gas every year. Electrics every five. Alarms on day one.
Three safety duties sit at the heart of every tenancy. A gas safety check by a Gas Safe registered engineer every year, with the record given to the tenant. An electrical installation condition report at least every five years, given to the tenant before they move in, with civil penalties of up to ÂŁ30,000 per breach. And a working smoke alarm on every storey, plus a carbon monoxide alarm in every room with a fixed combustion appliance, tested on day one, with penalties of up to ÂŁ5,000.

Why this matters
The Compliance tier puts every one of these on a single calendar with its legal basis, its deadline and its penalty, so the next due date is never a surprise. Gas failures can mean prosecution, unlimited fines and in serious cases prison, which is not a risk worth managing from memory.

Straight answers
What this is, and what it isn’t.
It is
- Templates and systems written for England’s rules as they stand after 1 May 2026.
- Editable Word and Excel files. No account, no lock-in, no subscription.
- Plain English, with the legal basis printed next to every duty.
It isn’t
- Legal advice. For a dispute or a possession claim, instruct a solicitor. The kit tells you when that moment has arrived.
- For Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland. They have their own rules.
- Frozen in time. Where figures move, the documents tell you to check gov.uk rather than pretend they won’t.

Questions
What happens after I pay?
Stripe takes the payment, then sends you straight to your download page. One zip file with every document in your tier, ready to open in Word or Excel. If you ever lose the files, restore your download with the email you paid with.
Who writes these documents?
People who manage rented property day to day, working from the legislation and government guidance as it stood in July 2026. Every duty in the compliance calendar lists its legal basis next to it, so you can check any of it yourself.
Does this work in Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland?
No. Renting law is devolved and the other three nations have their own systems. LandlordKit is written for England only, and we would rather lose the sale than sell you the wrong documents.
What will my card statement say?
PAPERWORK LABS, the company behind LandlordKit. Payment is handled by Stripe, so your card details never touch this site.
Is this up to date for the new law?
Yes. Every document is written for the regime in force since 1 May 2026: assured periodic tenancies, no section 21, section 13 rent increases, the pet request rules, the PRS database and ombudsman. If you are still using an AST template, that is exactly the problem this fixes.
Is this legal advice?
No. These are professional templates and systems for you to adapt. For disputes, possession claims or anything unusual, use a solicitor. The kit tells you when that moment is.
What format are the files?
Word documents you can edit and reuse forever, and Excel workbooks with the formulas already built. Nothing is locked, nothing expires, no subscription.
I have more than one property. Do I pay per property?
No. One payment, use it across your whole portfolio, forever.
Why not just download free templates?
Free templates are how landlords end up serving invalid documents. Most were written for the old AST regime and have not caught up. One invalid notice or one missed deposit deadline costs more than every tier of this kit combined.
Can I upgrade later?
Yes, just buy the bigger tier when you want it. Nothing is credited across tiers, so if you think you will want the full system, it is cheaper to start there.
The law has already changed. Your paperwork can catch up tonight.
