Reliable Electrical Services for Landlords in Chorlton
As a landlord, you have a legal responsibility to ensure that the electrical systems within your rental properties are safe, compliant, and properly maintained. Outdated wiring, faulty installations, or ageing consumer units can put tenants at risk and expose landlords to enforcement action. At Chorlton Electrical Services, we provide professional landlord electrical services designed to help you meet your obligations efficiently and without unnecessary disruption.
Our qualified electricians work with landlords and letting agents across Chorlton and South Manchester, carrying out inspections, upgrades, and remedial works to keep rental properties safe, compliant, and fully functional for tenants.
Landlord Electrical Services We Offer
1. Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs)
Landlords are required by law to have an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) carried out at least every five years for rental properties. An EICR identifies potential electrical hazards and confirms whether the installation meets current safety standards.
- Inspection of wiring, consumer units, sockets, and lighting
- Identification of faults, deterioration, or safety risks
- Clear written reports with prioritised observations
- Certification confirming compliance with regulations
If issues are identified, we can complete all necessary remedial works promptly to ensure your property achieves a satisfactory EICR.
2. Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
While PAT testing is not a legal requirement in all cases, it is strongly recommended where landlords supply electrical appliances. Regular testing helps reduce the risk of electrical accidents and supports your duty of care to tenants.
- Testing of all landlord-supplied appliances
- Clear pass/fail labelling
- Detailed test records for your files
- Reduced liability in the event of an incident
3. Consumer Unit & Fuse Box Upgrades
Many rental properties still have outdated fuse boards that no longer meet modern safety requirements. We carry out consumer unit upgrades to modern RCD-protected boards, improving safety and helping properties pass EICR inspections.
- Replacement of old or rewireable fuse boards
- Improved protection against electric shock and fire
- Work completed to current BS 7671 wiring regulations
- Improved compliance for rental properties

5. Electrical Rewiring for Rental Properties
