By law, you must ensure that:
- All electrical installations and smoke detection in your rental property are in a safe condition at the beginning and throughout the duration of the tenancy.
- An electrical condition report is carried out every year by a qualified electrician. This legally applies to a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO).
- You must fit appropriate smoke and heat alarm on every story and kitchens of a rental property.
- Ensure that your property has adequate RCD protection.
Encourage your tenants to report any common electrical problems they may notice throughout their tenancy.
Have a full electrical installation condition report carried out by a registered electrician in-between tenancy. For shorter tenancies, a visual inspection may be more appropriate.
Use a NICEIC registered electrician to carry out any electrical work in your property (even the smaller jobs), this ensures you comply with Part P of the building regulations.
