For a landlord the rules are worth knowing. In England the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations 2020 require a landlord to have the electrical installation inspected and tested at least every five years by a qualified and competent person. That is the kind of job that Manchester EICR Limited and D G Electrical Services Ltd, which also offers EICR certificates, handle.

Kennedy Pat Testing holds 5.0 from 2 reviews and Voltage Pro Electrical holds 5.0 from 2 reviews. S W G Electrical holds 5.0 from 1 review. All three are based in Ashton-under-Lyne, and each is worth a call to confirm which jobs it takes on.

Nearby towns with their own pages are Stalybridge, Dukinfield, Failsworth, Droylsden and Hyde. Because Fish Electrical covers most of those towns and Manchester Compliance Ltd and Manchester EICR Limited work across Greater Manchester, people on the edges of Tameside have options well beyond the town itself.
