The Impact Electrical and Security Services team were called out recently by a landlord whose tenants were having problems with a shower that kept tripping. This meant they had to keep resetting – always a sign there’s a problem. Once we took a look we found a horrible mess of cables, worn and pretty dangerous to be honest. The landlord booked in a fuse board change straight away, and a full Electrical Inspection Condition Report (EICR). Ensuring that the electrics in a rental property are safe for tenants to use is now a legal requirement. Failure to have an Electrical Safety Certificate proving that this is the case, can land you with a hefty fine or even a prison sentence. In our experience, most landlords want to comply with the EICR regulation, but often they’re not sure what they need to do. Impact carries out electrical safety checks for landlords in Bedfordshire, so we’re describing what’s required in this blog.

Impact – a Bedford Electrician You Can Rely On

Someone got in touch with Impact recently, wondering if we could help. A light fixture had blown and she was worried that we wouldn’t come out for such a small job. We told her that, of course we’d come out to fix it for her, and that’s exactly what we did a few hours later. Turns out that a number of local electricians had promised to come out, then simply not bothered to turn up. Needless to say, she was delighted with the our service, and left a lovely message on Facebook:
“Dean got in touch and came from Bedford to MK to sort the issue out in a matter of hours even though it wasn't a big job. He did a great job and is a really nice and polite guy. I wouldn't use anyone else going forward and always recommend him to people.”
Natasha Needham That’s how being a local electrician works, isn’t it? At Impact we invest in every single customer because we want them to invest in us.

Impact Provides Home Electrical Maintenance in Bedford

It only takes a power cut in the home to remind us just how much we depend on electricity. Without it we’d have difficulty heating our houses, cooking meals, accessing our friends and family, or doing our work. In the 21st century, more than ever before, electricity is the juice our lives run on. And yet, ask people when they last had an electrical maintenance check in their home and the most will struggle to remember. Impact engineers always recommend regular electrical maintenance in Bedford homes. There’s two main drivers to this; first we want families to be safe from electrical hazards. Second, we want to make sure that the systems you have in place are providing your with a good return on your investment. A home we visited recently had an alarm with only half the sensors working. The household thought they were protected whilst, in fact, they weren’t.

Looking For a Local Electrician in Bedford?

At one time everyone had a local electrician and plumber. Often they were handed down through the family. There was never any question of using someone different, and you knew they’d be there in an emergency. Now the arrangement is looser. Families rarely stay put and we search online for ‘electricians near me’. Finding a ‘local’ electrician you can trust to be there when you need them, though, can be difficult. I started Impact Electrical & Security Systems because I want to provide clients with a local electrician in Bedford. And by ‘local’ I mean an electrician who makes a professional commitment to you and your family. It’s someone who’ll always respond promptly when you call them, turns up when they say they will, and treats your home and your family respectfully. All that on top of being a skilled and experienced tradesman!!
