Domestic Appliance Guard: Boiler & Home Emergency Cover for Landlords

LetSorted has partnered with Domestic Appliance Guard to give landlords affordable boiler and home emergency cover — because a breakdown shouldn't become a compliance crisis.

What this means for landlords

A boiler breakdown in winter isn't just inconvenient — under Awaab's Law, a total heating failure is an emergency hazard that must be addressed within 24 hours. Without cover, you're scrambling for an available engineer at emergency rates while the compliance clock ticks.

This is a paid partnership. LetSorted may receive a referral fee if you take out cover through the links below, at no extra cost to you. See our affiliate disclosure for every arrangement we have.

LetSorted has partnered with Domestic Appliance Guard to give landlords access to affordable boiler and home emergency cover. DAG provides plans that cover boiler breakdowns, central heating failures, plumbing emergencies, and electrical faults — the kind of issues that hit hardest when you're self-managing.

Why it matters now

The Renters' Rights Act 2025 and Awaab's Law have raised the stakes for landlords who don't respond quickly to heating and safety issues. Penalties can reach £30,000, and a poor compliance record can undermine your position in possession proceedings.

Boiler cover doesn't replace your annual gas safety check — but it means that when something breaks between inspections, you have an engineer on call rather than a crisis on your hands.

Where you'll see it

Domestic Appliance Guard appears as a contextual suggestion in our compliance guides and on the LetSorted homepage. It's an optional service for landlords — never a requirement.

Using this service is completely optional.
