Electrical Inspection & Testing
Safeguard Your Property
Regular inspections are crucial to identifying potential hazards and maintaining the safety of your property. Our electrical team are dedicated to performing thorough assessments, detecting issues promptly, and providing you with peace of mind.
​
An electrical inspection and test involves a comprehensive survey of a property's electrical installation. While not mandatory, many buyers opt for an electrical check before moving in to uncover any potentially costly problems. Private landlords, on the other hand, must ensure that every electrical installation in their residential premises undergoes inspection and testing at intervals of no more than 5 years by a qualified and competent person.
​
All electrical installations naturally deteriorate with age and use, periodic inspection and testing, is essential to ensure their continued safe operation.
High Quality & Compliant Inspections
From June 2020, private landlords in England must have a periodic inspection carried out every five years, a legal requirement already in place in Scotland since 2015. Electrical Safety First recommends these checks for all properties in the UK, emphasising the safety of both the property and its occupants.
​
During the inspection with us, various aspects are considered, including the adequacy of earthing and bonding, the suitability of switchgear and control gear, and the serviceability of switches, sockets, and lighting fittings. The inspection also checks the type and condition of the wiring system, presence of adequate identification and notices, and any changes in the premises' use leading to or causing unsafe conditions.
​
Upon completion, our engineer will issue you with an Electrical Installation Condition Report, detailing observed damage, defects, dangerous conditions, and any non-compliances with present-day safety standards. If anything dangerous or potentially dangerous is found, the overall condition of the electrical installation is declared 'unsatisfactory,' requiring immediate remedial action to eliminate risks.
​
We provide holistic services, therefore we can provide a no obligation quote from your inspection survey, detailing all the work that needs to be undertaken to ensure your property is safe and compliant. With an in-house team of tradespeople available, we can ensure the work is done efficiently and to the highest standard.
