Landlord Requirements

Electrical Safety for Landlords Across London

Lektrix Installations Ltd supports landlords, letting agents and property managers across South London and Surrey including Wimbledon, Kingston, Tooting, Wandsworth, Lambeth and Beyond with all essential electrical safety requirements. From EICR landlord certificates to PAT testing, smoke and heat detector installation and fuseboard upgrades, we ensure your rental property meets current regulations and remains safe for tenants.


Understanding Your Legal Responsibilities

Landlords must ensure that electrical installations within their properties are safe at the start of a tenancy and remain safe throughout. This includes maintaining the wiring, fuseboard, circuits and fixed appliances. Our electricians provide clear, compliant documentation and practical guidance, helping you meet your obligations without complication.

EICR Landlord Certificates

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is mandatory for all rental properties. We carry out full inspections of your electrical system and identify any issues that need to be resolved.


Our EICR service includes:

  • Full inspection of fixed wiring
  • Identification and coding of faults
  • Clear report and certificate
  • Recommended timescales for any remedial work

PAT Testing for Rental Properties

Portable appliances supplied by the landlord must be safe for tenant use. PAT testing helps ensure compliance and reduces the risk of electrical accidents in the property.


PAT testing covers:

  • Kitchen appliances
  • Furnished property items
  • Office or study appliances in HMOs
  • Clear labelling and certification

Smoke & Heat Detector Installation

Landlords must ensure smoke and heat detectors are installed in the correct locations and are in working order at the start of each tenancy. We install compliant smoke alarms, heat detectors and interlinked systems suitable for all property types.


Detector services include:

  • Smoke alarms for hallways and living spaces
  • Heat detectors for kitchens
  • Interlinked alarm systems
  • Testing and maintenance

Fuseboard Installation & Safety Upgrades

Many rental properties require fuseboard upgrades to meet current safety standards. We install modern consumer units with RCD protection, ensuring your property complies with regulations and remains safe for tenants.


Fuseboard services include:

  • Full consumer unit upgrades
  • RCD and RCBO protection
  • Circuit labelling and testing
  • Safety checks for existing boards

Electrical Support for HMOs

Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) have additional electrical requirements. Our electricians provide testing, installation and documentation tailored to these properties.


HMO services include:

  • Regular electrical inspections
  • Fire alarm installation
  • Emergency lighting
  • Appliance testing
