Undertaking regular electrical maintenance ensures electrical equipment and installations are kept in safe working order. Electrical maintenance can involve scheduled inspections, such as a landlord’s electrical report or EICR, and the routine repair of your electrical system. Having an experienced maintenance electrician regularly review your property for faults and potential hazards helps to keep you safe and prevent costly, inconvenient breakdowns. If you require the services of a skilled maintenance electrician in Coventry, Electrical Experts are your local go-to experts.
Planned Electrical Maintenance
Planned electrical maintenance involves a qualified electrician inspecting and testing your electrical system. They will be looking at the overall condition of the electrical installation and checking individual components. Your maintenance electrician will test your system in a number of ways to ensure it is safe and functioning as it should. Planned electrical maintenance helps you to avoid breakdowns and serious issues by highlighting any areas of concern early. Should any of the components require repair or replacement then your maintenance electrician will be able to advise you immediately and correct the issue before any serious and costly problems arise.
One of the main planned electrical maintenance tasks an electrician will undertake is an electrical installation condition report (EICR). This is a scheduled review of a property’s electrical installation. It is a thorough inspection and should be carried out at least every 10 years if you are a homeowner. If you are a landlord, then your property should be inspected at 5 yearly intervals. It is a legal requirement for a landlord to have a valid EICR and you face a hefty fine if you fail to do so. Undertaking an EICR as part of your planned electrical maintenance program helps to keep you compliant with current regulations and keep your property safe. Electrical Experts provide comprehensive planned electrical maintenance services for landlords in Coventry. Our experience and in-depth understanding of the rules and regulations surrounding tenancies and HMO’s can help you fulfil your legal obligations with ease.
Fault Finding and Repair – Reactive Maintenance
Reactive maintenance occurs when an unexpected issue arises with an electrical installation. A maintenance electrician can be called upon to diagnose and repair the fault. To undertake reactive electrical maintenance, an electrician must be skilled at fault-finding and repair. They will use their experience to find the cause of the fault and ensure an effective resolution to get you back up and running safely. A maintenance electrician can swiftly and competently repair everything from your lighting, sockets and fuse box, to integrated systems such as air conditioning units.
A maintenance electrician can also be called upon to undertake more obvious electrical maintenance such as the replacement of broken sockets and light fittings. Whilst they repair these faults, they will ensure that the issue is fully resolved and not a symptom of a deeper issue. They will leave you and your property safe, in good order and functioning correctly.
