New regulations as of July 2020

As of 1st July 2020, the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 became mandatory for all landlords in the private rented sector.

These new regulations place an obligation on each landlord to ensure that an EICR is in place, for each property, before a new tenancy can commence.  The same rules also apply for existing tenancies, from 1st April 2021, and will demand that the testing is repeated at least every 5 years.

Subsequently, it is now more important than ever before to ensure that the installations at your properties are professionally tested, and safe to use for each tenant.
