Do you own rental properties in the Formby area? As a landlord, you’re responsible for keeping your tenants safe and protected while they live in your building. Therefore, you need to acquire all relevant electrical certificates. Here, we will be outlining three common tests our electricians carry out for our clients.
Our electrical and building company also offers a wide range of electrical services and building services, including:
One of the most common electrical tests we carry out is PAT testing. PAT stands for ‘Portable Appliance Testing’. This means visual and electrical inspections of household appliances, ensuring that your toasters, vacuum cleaners and microwaves are safe to use. This is an excellent preventative measure for dangers such as electrical fires and electric shocks.
Once the test is complete, we will issue you an electrical certificate, and our electricians will arrange to return it within either twelve or six months. If you would like to hear more about our solar panel installations, replacement EV chargers, new EV car charger installations or other electrical services, please get in touch today. The extension builders at our building company are also happy to share insight into our house extensions and the electrics involved in our Formby projects.
EICR stands for ‘Electrical Installation Condition Report’. It is a comprehensive test that assesses a wide variety of different components, from your consumer unit to individual switches and sockets. It makes sure that all permanent electrical installations are safe and functional, preventing dangerous electric shocks and other risks. It is a legal requirement for landlords to renew these certificates every twelve months.
Depending on the grade of your fire alarm system, you may be required to have it tested at regular intervals. Our electricians offer a swift and meticulous inspection service, inspecting the smoke detectors, heat detectors, sounders and more to ensure full working order. We work quickly to minimise disruption but never compromise on attentiveness.
Our electrical and building company is the smart choice for solar panel installations, solar energy batteries, EV car charger installations, house extensions and much more. We offer professional insight to all Formby-based customers for partial rewiring, electrical certificates and other electrical services and building services.
