As a landlord, maintaining the safety and compliance of your properties is paramount. At Global Compliance UK, we understand the unique challenges faced by landlords and offer a range of electrical testing and inspection services tailored to meet your needs. With over 25 years of experience, we are dedicated to providing reliable and professional services across South England, South Wales, and nationwide. Here’s a detailed look at the essential services we offer to landlords.
Landlords Electrical Safety Inspections (EICR)
Effective from July 1, 2020, for new tenancies and April 1, 2021, for existing tenancies, landlords are required by law to have Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) for their properties. Our EICR services ensure that all electrical installations are safe and compliant with current legislation. We provide a straightforward pricing structure based on property size and deliver certification within 24 hours of inspection. This service is crucial in preventing electrical hazards and ensuring tenant safety.
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT Testing)
Regular PAT testing is vital to ensure the safety of electrical appliances within your rental properties. The Health and Safety at Work Act 1989 mandates that employers provide a safe working environment, which includes the regular testing of electrical appliances to minimize fire risks and prevent injuries. Our competitive pricing starts from £0.58+VAT per item, making it an affordable solution for maintaining appliance safety.
Fixed Wire Testing (EICR)
Electrical wiring can deteriorate over time, posing potential safety risks. Our Fixed Wire Testing service ensures that all fixed wiring, including sockets, light fittings, and power supplies, complies with the Electricity at Work Regulations. Regular testing helps prevent electrical failures and enhances the overall safety of your properties. Our commercial fixed wire inspections are priced from £6.35+VAT per circuit.
Emergency Light Testing
In the event of a power failure, emergency lighting is crucial for ensuring tenant safety. We provide essential annual emergency lighting inspections and corrective remedial works in line with BS 5266 standards. Our services include a full asset list and certification upon completion, starting from £45.00+VAT per inspection.
Fire Extinguisher Maintenance
Maintaining fire extinguishers in accordance with BS 5306 part 3:2003 is a legal requirement. Our fire extinguisher maintenance services ensure that all units are inspected annually and serviced periodically to guarantee maximum fire safety. Our competitive pricing begins at £1.95+VAT per unit.
Energy Performance Certificates (EPC)
Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) are required when placing properties on the market for sale or rent. An EPC rates the energy efficiency of a property and suggests ways to improve it, which can enhance property value and tenant satisfaction. Our fixed cost per property starts from £45.00+VAT.
Thermographic Inspections
Thermographic inspections are a non-invasive method to detect electrical issues such as poor connections and faulty insulation. This service helps prevent equipment failure, reduces maintenance costs, and ensures uninterrupted operations. Our nationwide inspection services are competitively priced from £145.00+VAT.
Lightning Protection System Inspection
Annual inspections of lightning protection systems are essential to ensure their effectiveness in protecting properties and electronic equipment. Our fully qualified engineers provide comprehensive inspections and testing services across the UK, starting from £45.00+VAT.
Fixed Appliance Testing (FAT)
Fixed appliances like hand dryers, wall heaters, and air conditioning units require formal inspection and testing. According to the 5th Edition IEE Code of Practice, these items must be tested regularly to ensure safety and compliance. Our services are competitively priced, and we offer customized solutions based on your specific needs.
Calibration Services
Accurate calibration of electrical test instruments is crucial for reliable testing results. We offer professional calibration services for a wide range of electrical and pressure measuring equipment from our premises in Semington, Trowbridge.
