Along with being Edinburgh’s number one home rewire team, did you know that we are also experts in electrical testing and certification too? From EICR certification to PAT testing, fire alarm certification and more, our friendly team of Edinburgh electricians have got you covered.
We know how many elements need to be considered before a property passes all safety checks and can be rented out. Electrical testing and certification is especially important if you own an Edinburgh based rental or commercial property as there are legal obligations in terms of electrical safety that must be fulfilled. Whether it’s electrical maintenance checks or testing, our NICEIC registered electrical contractors have all the expert electrician skills needed to cover every situation or requirement. With all our work fully certified too, you can relax knowing that all work we undertake on your behalf is covered by the DC Electrical Edinburgh peace of mind guarantee.
With so much to consider you may be wondering what you actually need to have in place? That’s where we are here to help! The Landlord and Tenant Act of 1985 states that all landlords and indeed any property agents acting on their behalf are responsible for their tenants electrical safety. A regular inspection is required either every 5 years or with every change of tenancy, whichever comes sooner. EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Reports) are completed by qualified, expert electricians and cover all aspects of electrical safety. They are a legal requirement and a cornerstone of ensuring your tenants safety. We are experts in EICR reports and electrical testing across the Edinburgh region so can not only complete all testing & reporting but also provide a quote for any necessary work that the reporting highlights.
PAT testing is another key safety consideration for all Edinburgh landlords. PAT testing stands for Portable Appliance Testing and is simply a regular inspection of any portable electrical appliances (washing machines, ovens etc) to verify their safety. Along with EICR reporting, PAT testing is a legal requirement designed to ensure the safety of your tenants (or employees in the case of commercial properties)
