Q.

With a let property, do I need to get the electrics checked?

A.

From 1st June 2020 it became a legal requirement to provide tenants on all new lettings with a copy of an EICR certificate, confirming that the electrics are safe.  This was then further expanded to all new and existing tenancies on 1st July 2021. A certificate will last for five years and we can assist with arranging these checks to be carried out.

Q.

With a let property, why do I need to do a legionella risk assessment?

A.

Legionnaires’ is a pneumonia-like disease commonly caused by the inhalation of small droplets of contaminated water. The law requires landlords to ensure that the risk of exposure to Legionella in the property is properly assessed and controlled. This includes the assessment of all water systems by a competent person. We can assist with this.
