Whether you manage a single property or a large portfolio, our NAPIT-approved team ensures your rental properties are safe, fully compliant, and maintained to the highest standards.
Our tailored approach supports all aspects of landlord electrical compliance, including Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs), fire alarm servicing, and planned or reactive maintenance. With years of experience and a reputation for reliable service, we offer hassle-free solutions for keeping tenants safe and properties legally compliant.
Why Electrical Compliance Matters for Landlords
Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, landlords are required to have their electrical installations inspected and tested at least every five years. This legal obligation applies to all privately rented properties and must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
Failure to comply can result in hefty fines of up to £30,000 and potential legal issues in the event of injury or damage. Our qualified electricians help you stay on the right side of legislation while protecting your tenants and investment.
Our Electrical Services for Landlords & Letting Agents
SFR Electrical Services provides a full range of landlord-focused electrical services, designed to keep your properties compliant, functional, and tenant-ready.
EICR – Electrical Installation Condition Reports
We perform detailed EICRs to assess the safety and condition of fixed wiring systems. This includes checking:
- Fuse boards and consumer units
- Sockets, switches, and light fittings
- Circuit integrity and earth bonding
- Type and age of wiring (e.g. replacing old rubber or lead sheathing)
- Identification of any C1 (danger present), C2 (potentially dangerous), or FI (further investigation) codes
If your EICR fails, we can carry out remedial works immediately (subject to approval) using van-stocked materials to avoid return visits.
Fire & Smoke Alarm Installation & Maintenance
We install and maintain fire detection systems to meet the latest safety standards, including:
- Smoke alarms on each storey
- Heat detectors in kitchens
- Carbon monoxide alarms in rooms with fuel-burning appliances
Our team can fit interlinked alarms (battery or hardwired) and test them as part of routine maintenance or inspection schedules.
Electrical Repairs and Maintenance
Our electricians handle all electrical works across your rental portfolio, from minor issues to complete rewires:
- Fault finding and repairs
- Lighting upgrades and switch replacements
- Consumer unit replacements and surge protection
- Additional sockets or USB points
- Extractor fan installation and ventilation improvements
We carry out both reactive repairs (urgent problems reported by tenants) and planned maintenance to prevent disruptions.
Pre-Tenancy Electrical Checks
Ensure every tenancy starts on the right foot. Our pre-tenancy services include:
- Comprehensive EICR testing
- Appliance checks and testing
- Alarm system inspection
- Socket and lighting function checks
We’ll liaise directly with your tenants or estate agents to arrange access, minimising your admin and ensuring smooth handovers.
