Your answers Gentlemen, please. This is indicating a serious problem in the Industry. Trust is now zero. I am disgusted with the behavior of these alleged "inspectors" who are dim, dumb, deaf and blind, and cannot read the BBB. It is not good enough is it?
We are supposed to inspect and test an electrical installation for an EICR including the smoke and heat alarms circuit and check the alarms are electrically safe, but not mention that the alarms are not fit for purpose?
I did an EICR for the purchasers of a house last year and the alarms expired twenty two years ago, of course I commented on the EICR that they needed to replace the alarms ASAP after purchasing the house.
Similarly I did an EICR for someone selling their house a couple of weeks ago and could not get the sunken and pillar lights on the patio to work, when I asked the client he said they had never worked in all the time they had lived in the house, over fifteen years, so I made an observation that the patio lights need repairing.
If there’s fixed equipment being sold with a house and you know it’s not functioning or fit for purpose you cannot ignore that and just say it is okay because it is electrically safe, it a CONDITION report.
Though I do exclude electric gates from the reports with an observation that a report on the condition of the gate is required from a specialist contractor, along with stating appliances are not checked.
