As per the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, landlords, or agents acting on their behalf, are responsible for tenants’ electrical safety. This means getting regular electrical inspection done every 5 years or at each change of occupancy. EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Reports) are a detailed and legally required electrical inspection service and an important part of ensuring your tenants safety. Our EIC inspection & reporting service will provide you with all documentation required and we can also carry out any necessary repair work should there be any issues post inspection. We can also provide reports on existing electrical installations completing a thorough examination of your property’s electrical installation and comprehensive report detailing any necessary work.
Whether you have a whole rental portfolio or a single property, our friendly Edinburgh electrician team offers a full range of landlord services covering everything you need from EICR reporting, PAT testing and of course our first class home rewire services. We’d love to be part of your next project so get in contact with us today for your free, no-strings-attached visual survey and let us take it from there.
