Rental appliance testing in Liverpool
Discuss inspection and testing of portable electrical appliances supplied with a rental property.
Liverpool & surrounding areas · Homeowners, landlords and property managers

What to consider for rental appliance testing.
Prepare an inventory of the portable electrical appliances supplied with the tenancy and identify any damaged items. An appliance inspection and testing visit is different from inspecting the building’s fixed electrical installation.
The appropriate approach depends on the equipment, its use and condition. Do not assume every appliance needs the same test or a universal annual interval. Agree which items are included, what access is needed and what results record will be provided.
If there is an immediate safety concern, do not wait for a website response. Read emergency guidance →

We confirm the agreed work, price and attendance arrangements before you commit. Where an assessment is needed first, the assessment and subsequent repair are explained separately. Extra work and materials need separate agreement. A website enquiry does not confirm a booking.

Rental appliance testing: useful answers.
Is PAT the same as the property’s EICR?+
No. Appliance inspection and testing concerns the equipment in the agreed inventory. An EICR concerns the fixed electrical installation. They are separate scopes and one should not be used as a substitute for the other.
Can I request this service for a property in Liverpool?+
Yes. Send the postcode and job details so we can confirm coverage and availability. Tell us if you are booking for a tenant, landlord or property manager and who can authorise the work. Submitting an enquiry does not reserve a visit.
Can you confirm the price before work starts?+
We clarify the scope and price before work is agreed. If the cause or access is uncertain, an initial assessment may be needed before the final work can be priced. Any additional work or materials must be agreed separately.
