WHAT WE DO

TESTING & INSPECTION

EPEC Electrical can periodically inspect your installation to verify its condition.

The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 

New government legislation states that landlords must ensure every fixed electrical installation is inspected and tested at least every five years by a qualified person. The Regulations also state that a landlord is required to obtain a report of the results of the inspection and test, supply it to each tenant within 28 days and retain a copy until the next inspection is due. 

1st July 2020 – Rule applies to new tenancies – As of this date, a landlord must supply a tenant with a satisfactory Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) report prior to the commencement of the tenancy. 

1st April 2021 – Rule applies to all existing tenancies – a landlord must supply any current tenants with a copy of a satisfactory EICR report.

We have lived in our property for 10yrs and have decided to rent the property out. We were therefore in need of an EICR electrical certificate. We initially used someone by recommendation but the resultant report came with a significantly large quote for remedial work. I'm no professional to electrics but I decided to get a second opinion so we called EPEC Electrical. Darren was exceptionally responsive to our need and booked us in within a matter of days from our initial contact. He conducted the report which resulted in minimal remedial works needing to be conducted to achieve a satisfactory result. Upon review of the other report he highlighted the errors that had been made - registration to a professional/ governing body is one thing, knowledge and experience is something completely different and Darren certainly excels here!! I cannot recommend his services highly enough. Great guy, polite, punctual and saved us a fortune! 11/10
