FAQs

Common Questions

Can't find your answer? Give us a call on 07940 071963.

All private rental properties in Tollcross EH3 must have a valid EICR every 5 years under Scottish regulations, or at the start of each new tenancy if sooner. Tollcross's central location means high tenancy turnover — we manage compliance schedules for landlords across EH3.

Yes. Properties in Tollcross with commercial ground floors and residential upper floors require careful circuit separation assessment during an EICR. Each occupancy should have its own circuits with appropriate metering and RCD protection. We have extensive experience with these mixed-use arrangements.

Common findings in Tollcross tenement flats include older consumer units without RCD protection, deteriorated wiring insulation in pre-1960s installations, shared building supplies without proper documentation, and inadequate earthing arrangements in older city-centre properties.

A standard Tollcross 1–2 bedroom flat typically takes 2–3 hours. Larger properties and HMOs take longer. We confirm an accurate estimate at booking based on your circuit count and property size.

Yes. We offer flexible morning, afternoon and early evening appointments in Tollcross EH3. For mixed-use properties, we coordinate with both commercial tenants and residential occupants to minimise disruption.

Yes. If your Tollcross EICR reveals C1 or C2 coded observations, we provide a fixed-price quote for all remedial work. We complete the work promptly and issue an updated satisfactory report on completion.
