Faulty electrics are a potential hazard – but it’s often more difficult to spot when there’s a problem.

Electrical cables can be hidden inside walls, fuse boards or other locations that are not immediately visible, and so it’s hard to see damage. 

Faulty and old wiring is one of the main causes of electrical fires in the home. That’s why it’s important that we carry out a regular condition check on your council property. We do this every five years as part of your tenancy agreement. 

This is done to protect you and your family. Please allow the electrician into your home to carry out the work. Failure to do so is a breach of your Tenancy Agreement and could result in the Council taking legal action to obtain access. 

Gap Electrical Services carry out electrical checks in our homes. They can be contacted directly on 0116 242 5796.
