FIXED WIRE TESTING FOR LANDLORDS AND LETTING AGENCIES
Fixed wire testing, also known as an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), is a legal requirement for all rental properties in the UK. This test checks the integrity of the permanent wiring, including sockets, light fittings, fuse boards, and other fixed electrical components. Our inspections identify deterioration, overload risks, or unsafe installations, ensuring early intervention before faults lead to damage or injury. After testing, a full report is provided outlining any issues found and recommendations for remedial work, where necessary. Regular testing helps landlords avoid penalties and provides documented proof of compliance.
PORTABLE APPLIANCE TESTING (PAT) FOR FURNISHED PROPERTIES
PAT testing is required for all portable electrical appliances provided by the landlord in furnished or part-furnished rental properties. This includes everyday items such as kettles, microwaves, fridges, televisions, and lamps. Each appliance is visually inspected and tested using specialist equipment to ensure it is electrically safe for use. Labels and documentation are issued to confirm testing dates and outcomes, supporting record-keeping and audits. The process is quick and non-invasive, helping to reduce tenant disruption while maintaining legal compliance and high safety standards.
COMPREHENSIVE ELECTRICAL SAFETY COMPLIANCE AND REPORTING
Electrical safety compliance involves more than just carrying out tests — it requires accurate documentation and timely action. We deliver comprehensive reports with each service, making it clear what's been tested, what passed, and what needs attention. These reports support landlords and letting agents in meeting their obligations under UK tenancy laws, including The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020. We also offer guidance on scheduling follow-up works and re-inspections to maintain continuous compliance. Our aim is to simplify the process, reduce risks, and provide long-term peace of mind.
