I'm a landlord. Do I need an electrical certificate?

Well, this may surprise you. Technically - no you don't. However, as a landlord, it is important to ensure that all electrical appliances and fittings within the property you rent out are safe.

Unlike Gas Safe regulations, there is no legislation that demands you must have an electrical safety certificate. Having said that, should any electrical fittings or appliances within your rental property cause actual harm to the tenant - you could be held liable. And in the worst case scenario, your tenant could sue you for damages or you might be brought before a court for negligence under the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 1994.

Also, most estate agents will require documentary evidence of electrical testing before they agree to rent your property. A Periodic Inspection Report (PIR) is the certificate you will require.

We also provide combined gas and electrical safety certificates for landlords, estate agents, letting agents, home owners, tenants, house buyers, house sellers and local authorities.

Whether you are a homeowner, someone looking to make a purchase or a landlord who requires an electrical safety certificate, we can provide you with a full electrical inspection and safety certificate - if the installation meets current regulations - of course.

Periodic Inspection reports (PIR)

Periodic Inspection Reports are electrical inspections on your internal wiring. They are essential to obtain insurance and to comply with legal requirements and licensing purposes in public places such as theatres, pubs, restaurants, clubs and hotels.

We pride ourselves on our open and honest pricing - there are no hidden charges and we even charge in 15 minute intervals after the first hour - beat that! Take a look at our pricing list for a guide on how much you can expect to pay. For larger jobs such as full electrical house re-wires and lighting installations we can provide you with a fixed price and what's more, the quotation is free!
