Trusted Electrical Support
for Landlords

As a landlord or property manager, you have a significant legal responsibility to ensure the safety of your tenants. Managing electrical systems, fire safety, and general maintenance across your portfolio requires a partnership with a contractor who is reliable, efficient, and an expert in compliance.

Gilbert Electrical & Security is that partner. We provide a complete, hassle-free service for landlords and letting agents across East Anglia, helping you meet your legal obligations, keep your tenants safe, and protect your property assets.

We act as your single point of contact for all electrical, fire, and security needs, simplifying your management process and providing you with complete peace of mind.

We specialise in the key services required to keep your properties safe and legally compliant.

Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR): It is a legal requirement for landlords in the private rented sector to have the fixed electrical installation of their properties inspected and tested at least every five years by a qualified person. We provide full, NICEIC-certified EICRs, delivering a detailed report on the condition of the installation and a formal certificate to prove your compliance.

Fire, Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarms: You are legally required to have working smoke and, where applicable, carbon monoxide alarms fitted in your rental properties. We go beyond basic compliance, specialising in the installation and maintenance of reliable, interlinked systems that meet the standards of BS 5839-6, giving both you and your tenants the highest level of protection.

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT): You have a duty of care to ensure that any electrical appliances you provide within the property are safe to use. Our professional PAT testing service inspects all your provided items, from kettles to washing machines, and provides a full report and certificate for your records.

Beyond compliance, we offer a full range of services to maintain and improve your properties.

• Emergency Call-Outs & Repairs: A reliable, responsive service to handle any electrical faults or emergencies, minimising disruption for your tenants.
