Landlord Electrician in Harrogate for Electrical Safety Certificates
Letting a property in Harrogate? You need an EICR at least every five years, a copy for your tenants, and any required fixes done within 28 days.
Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, private landlords must have the electrical installation inspected and tested at least every five years by a qualified person. Tenants must receive a copy, and the local council can ask for one.
If the report requires remedial work or further investigation, it has to be completed within 28 days, or sooner if the report says so, and written confirmation sent to the tenant and council. We handle the test, the report and the remedial work, and give you the paperwork you need.
