Testing Services

Why use Kevin Wilkins for Testing Services?

With our years of experience delivering electrical contractor services across commercial and residential properties, we have the required expertise to conduct all types of testing services for your building. Read on to learn how Kevin Wilkins can provide you with the necessary testing so that your property conforms to government legislation.


 

Electrical testing services

As part of the Electrical Safety Standards regulations, it is a legal requirement for landlords in the private rented sector to have electrical installations in their properties professionally inspected at least every 5 years. The outcome of this inspection is provided in the form of an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), which under law must be supplied to the tenant within 28 days of the inspection (or to any future tenant within 28 days of receiving the request for the report).

Kevin Wilkins uses NICEIC-approved electrical contractors, who are qualified to the highest industry standards meaning we will conduct electrical testing and inspection services in a professional and efficient manner. We will also supply you with an EICR, which can then be passed on to the relevant tenants and authorities.


 

Fire alarm and smoke alarm testing

All properties are legally required to have fully functioning fire detection systems. Regular checks are essential to fire alarm system maintenance, and we offer comprehensive servicing and certification with our fire alarm and smoke alarm testing across all your devices.


 

Automatic Opening Vent (AOV) testing

Smoke ventilation systems such as automatic opening vents, or vents which function electrically or operate manually require regular maintenance and servicing. At Kevin Wilkins, we offer a full AOV testing service, paying close attention to the performance of your vents to ensure optimal functionality.


 

Emergency lighting testing

Emergency lighting serves to highlight evacuation routes and fire-fighting equipment, and must undergo full testing annually as part of UK fire safety legislation. Our industry-approved engineers can carry out complete emergency lighting testing across a variety of battery, bulb tube and light fittings.
