Inspections



We perform safety inspections and certificates for landlords, estate agents, and letting agents.



Legislation now in force requires that a Landlord or managing agent shall ensure that the electrical installations are in a safe condition within the dwelling.
Please call us for details of our Period Inspection Reports (landlord safety certificates) and current costs of inspections.


The Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 states that a Landlord is responsible .... "to keep in repair and proper working order the installations in the dwelling house for the supply of water, gas and electricity...."

BS7671:2008 is the UK Standard for electrical installations and requires that all electrical installations be periodically inspected and in the case of Rented Dwellings be inspected upon change of occupier.

Therefore it is essential the landlord has speedy access to a dedicated and efficient expert who can quickly carry out all the necessary checks and issue an
appropriate certificate.


Landlords should ensure that the electrical installation (fixed wiring, etc) is safe to use. The Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 requires landlords to ensure the electrical installation is safe when the tenancy begins, and that it is maintained in a safe condition throughout that tenancy. In order to comply with this requirement it is recommended that the electrical installation is fully inspected on a 5 yearly basis by a qualified electrician to ensure that the electrical system complies with current electrical regulations and is in a safe condition.
