Planned improvements to your home

Building safety, servicing and testing

We are legally required to test and service your home. We test and service your home and any appliances we’ve installed to keep them safe and efficient, and so they last a long time.  

Regular testing and servicing prevent accidents like gas leaks, electrical faults and fires. Servicing your gas boiler also saves energy and reduces your bills.  

It is important you allow us access to your home so we can do this.  

All testing and servicing is carried out by qualified and registered engineers. 

 

Planned servicing includes: 

  • Servicing and testing your heating system  
  • Testing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors 
  • Testing gas and electrical appliances, if we have fitted them
  • Electrical testing 
  • Lift servicing 
  • Alarm systems testing 
  • Access control systems 
  • Health and safety inspections like fire safety assessments and water safety checks, if they apply to your home
