Landlord Legal requirements

Anyone who lets a residential accommodation as a business activity is required by law to ensure the equipment they supply as part of the tenancy is safe.

The Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 1994 requires that all mains electrical equipment (cookers, washing machines, kettles, etc), new/second-hand, supplied with the accommodation must be safe. Landlords therefore need to regularly maintain the electrical equipment they supply to ensure it is safe.

It is strongly advised to have the equipment checked before the start of each let. It would be good practice to have the equipment checked at regular intervals thereafter.
