We appreciate how much there is to consider when renting out properties but it is important for all landlords to know what the main electrical safety requirements for landlords in Edinburgh and throughout Scotland are. The Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 confirms that landlords (or agents acting on their behalf) are responsible for ensuring the electrical safety of their properties and tenants. A regular electrical inspection is required every 5 years or with each new tenancy agreement.
When you schedule an electrical inspection with a trusted Edinburgh electrician, the cornerstone to all electrical inspections is the Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR). These reports are not only a legal requirement but also play a crucial role in ensuring your tenants’ safety and of course your compliance with the law. At DC Electrical Edinburgh, our expert team provides thorough EICR reports as part of our landlord service packages, ensuring you receive all the necessary documentation for full peace of mind.
In addition to EICRs, our electricians can inspect and assess any current electrical installations located within your property. If any issues arise during the inspection, we are fully equipped to carry out repairs on-site, ensuring everything is brought up to scratch as soon as we can. As NICEIC registered contractors, we always ensure that all our electrical work meets the highest standards and is fully certified.
Whether you manage a large portfolio of rental properties or a single buy-to-let apartment, our expert team of friendly Edinburgh based electricians provides a one-stop solution for all your electrical needs. Did you know that we are also Edinburgh’s premier home rewire specialist too?
