A professional electrical safety inspection helps to identify potential hazards that could lead to electrical fires or electric shocks.

Rental Property Electrical Safety Checks

For landlords and property managers, rental electrical safety checks are not just recommended, they are a legal obligation

Under the Residential Tenancies Regulations 2021, landlords must ensure a comprehensive electrical safety check is conducted by a licensed electrician at least every two years

This includes all electrical installations, fittings, and appliances provided within the premises. All rental properties must now feature modern switchboards with circuit breakers and electrical safety switches (RCDs) on all power point and lighting circuits. 

Our experienced team of qualified electricians provides thorough electrical and gas safety checks, providing the required electrical safety check report to ensure your property remains compliant, tenants are safe, and you avoid potential fines or liabilities.

General Electrical Safety Inspections

Beyond compulsory checks, regular general electrical safety inspections are a proactive way to identify potential hazards that may not be immediately obvious, but could escalate into serious issues.

Our licensed electrical inspectors will thoroughly assess your entire electrical system, from wiring and switchboards to power points and appliances, making sure everything is working safely and efficiently. 

Don't wait for a problem to happen; a comprehensive electrical inspection provides invaluable peace of mind, safeguarding your property and everyone in it.
