Landlords electrical safety certificate in Little Gringley

As a private landlord, UK law requires an inspection of the fixed electrical installations at your property in Little Gringley. The inspection, also referred to as a landlord's safety check or EICR (electrical installation condition report) is a thorough inspection of lighting, light fixtures, switches, outlets and the fuse board at your premises.

The purpose of the inspection or electrical safety check is to identify any flaws, signs of wear and tear or areas of non compliance. By flagging any faults during an inspection, you can minimise the risk to any individuals renting your property. Electrical faults, however minor to start with, can escalate quickly, leading to electrical fires, damage to property or risk to life.

As approved NICEIC electricians, the team are experienced and skilled at conducting landlord's electrical safety checks. We use a range of advanced testing tools during the inspection. Devices like a multi meter, proving device and voltage tester are all essential items during an EICR.

As NICEIC electricians, we also use EICR software to help us record and report our findings. This “certificate” or report which is generated will list any of the electrical faults found during the inspection.

We don’t just flag up electrical faults, we also discuss areas of poor energy consumption and share our recommendations on better electrical efficiency. This could end up saving you money and time.

The report will need to be provided to any new tenants before they move into your rental property. For any existing tenants already at the property during the inspection, the report will need to be provided within 28 days of the inspection.
Local authorities can also request a copy of the report from landlords, you have 28 days to make sure a copy of the report is submitted if requested.

It’s a big responsibility to bear, that's why our team of electricians assist landlords with safety inspections, suggesting remedial work for faults we do find and discussing measures for future proofing your rental property.
