Reliable landlord electrical safety inspections, testing and certification
Professional Electrical Safety Checks and Landlord EICR Electrical Certificates
Are you thinking about investing in rental properties to either supplement your income or make a living?
If so, you need to ensure your properties are safe before your tenants move in, which means you need to have all your electrical installations and appliances inspected, tested, and fully certified, including PAT testing.
Our SELECT- and NICEIC-approved team of friendly and expert electrical contractors carries out landlord electrical safety checks and issues certificates and PAT testing on behalf of private landlords and letting agents. We offer electrical testing services across the central belt of Scotland, which includes Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Ayrshire, as well as the North of England.
In order to comply with the Housing Act 2006 (Scotland), landlords in Glasgow and across Scotland have to ensure that their properties are safe by undergoing regular safety inspections.
This means that an electrical safety inspection of the property should be carried out by a registered electricial contractor at least every five years to ensure they are electrically safe. This also needs to take place before the start of any new tenancy.
Here at Interlink Lighting & Electrical, we have a team of highly-trained and fully qualified electrical contractors who can inspect and test every electrical installation and appliance to ensure they’re safe and in full working order.
The next time you need to obtain a landlord electrical safety certificate in Glasgow, you needn’t look any further than Interlink Lighting & Electrical.
Routine safety checks for landlords
Ensuring your electrical outlets and appliances are safe for your tenants is a legal requirement, but the benefits of landlord PAT electrical testing in Glasgow and across Scotland extend far beyond just complying with the law. In the process of ensuring your electrical installations are safe, we can identify and repair small problems before they exacerbate and become increasingly costly to fix, and that’s just one way in which our services are a high-value investment. We’ll also be able to let you know which of your electrical appliances are running efficiently, allowing you to replace outdated products with more economical ones. As a result, you can make your rental property appeal to those who want to minimise their running costs.
Landlord regulations in electrical systems
At Interlink Lighting & Electrical, we understand the regulations when it comes to landlord electrical inspections and electrical safety testing in Scotland. With rented accommodation, it is the responsibility of the landlord to provide home electrical testing to ensure all electrical installations and appliances are safe. At the start of each tenancy, they must be free of risk under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System. We provide landlord electrical inspections to give you peace of mind before a new tenant moves into your property. If you have any questions about what your landlord’s duties involve, then do not hesitate to get in touch.
