How do portfolio rates work?

From three properties under one account we apply a discounted EICR rate and combine jobs to cut travel. More properties, better rate — up to 20% off on portfolios of ten or more.

Can you liaise with my letting agent?

Yes — we’ll deal directly with the agent to book access, confirm visits and share the certificate.

Do you remediate C1/C2 items the same day?

Where possible, yes. Critical hazards are isolated immediately; routine C2s are quoted and actioned within 28 days to stay inside the regulation deadline.

What about HMO properties?

HMOs follow the same 5-year cycle but require more careful planning around tenant rooms. We’ve tested dozens of HMOs across Watford — no surprises.

Do you handle emergency lighting and fire alarms?

Yes — BS 5266 emergency lighting and BS 5839-6 domestic smoke/heat systems. Commercial fire alarms are a separate service.

Do you store my certificates?

Yes, in your customer portal, indefinitely. You can download or share them with one click.
