The Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 states that a Landlord is responsible .... "to keep in repair and proper working order the installations in the dwelling house for the supply of water, gas and electricity...."

Additionally The Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 1994 require that equipment be safe and in conformity with the principle elements of the safety objectives for electrical equipment set out in section 3 of the Regulations.

BS7671:2001 as amended is the UK Standard for electrical installations and requires that all electrical installations be periodically inspected and in the case of Rented Dwellings be inspected upon change of occupier (Regulation 732-01-01).
A Landlord has a duty of care and may have an implied covenant with the tenant, therefore it is essential he or she has speedy access to a dedicated and efficient expert who can quickly carry out all the necessary checks and issue an appropriate certificate.

Part P of the Building Regulations 2005 now effectively makes unlawful any unregistered electricians or DIY electrical work

Bailey & Birch Ltd have recognised all of this and have put together a unique service whereby we not only survey wiring and test appliances but can also repair or upgrade any system so that it may meet with current standards.

Our surveys are accurate, unbiased and open to audit by The NICEIC and give clear unambiguous information in an understandable form together with straight forward recommendations.

Our mangers are always on hand to provide further information and to arrange convenient appointments for inspections or any other of our unparralled services.
