"BEYOND FIVE STAR. We needed urgent help acquiring 4 electrical test certificates for rental accommodation, and they fitted us in with their already full diary. Exceptionally service, competence, and will use no other in the future. Could not recommend more highly. 6 star service!!!"

How often do I need an EICR in Southampton?
For rental properties, landlords must get an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) at least every 5 years — or at the start of a new tenancy. For homeowners, it’s recommended every 10 years. Businesses typically need one every 5 years too.
Is Emergency Lighting Testing a legal requirement?
Yes! UK law (under the Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order 2005) requires regular emergency light testing for commercial properties. A monthly flick test and an annual 3-hour discharge test are needed to stay compliant and protect lives.
What appliances need PAT Testing?
Any portable electrical item that plugs into the mains — like kettles, computers, extension leads, and power tools — should be PAT tested. Especially in offices, shops, and rental properties, PAT Testing keeps everyone safe and reduces fire risks.
