✓ EICR Certificates | ✓ Gas Safe Certificates | ✓ PAT Testing | ✓ Gas Safe Registered | ✓ NICEIC Approved | ✓ Certificate Same Day | ✓ Same-Week Availability
A landlord with four properties across Chelsea, SW3 and Knightsbridge, SW1X, called us on a Wednesday in February. His letting agent had called that morning. The EICR on his Sloane Avenue flat had expired. The certificate had been due for renewal in January, but was missed in the administrative cycle that every landlord with multiple properties runs against every year. The new tenancy was due to begin on Saturday. Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, the legislation that made EICR certificates a legal requirement for all private rental properties in England, the new tenancy could not legally begin until a valid EICR certificate was in place.
He had called three electrical companies before calling us. All three had given him the same answer: two to three weeks.
We said Thursday. He paused. He asked us to confirm.
Thursday. The following day. NICEIC-approved electrician. Certificate issued on the day of inspection. Valid for five years. Tenants able to move in on Saturday as planned.
We attended on Thursday. The inspection was completed. The certificate was issued digitally, to his email address, within two hours of the inspection concluding. The tenants moved in on Saturday.
On the following Monday, he called again. He wanted to know if we could manage the annual certification programme across all four of his properties, the EICR renewals on a five-year rolling basis, the annual Gas Safe certificates on all four, and the PAT testing on the two furnished properties.
We said yes.
Four properties. One contractor. One call. Every certificate is managed, tracked, and renewed before it expires with a notification to him thirty days before each expiry date so that the Sloane Avenue situation never occurs again.
That is what landlord services in Chelsea should look like. Not an emergency. A programme.

The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, which came into force for all new tenancies from 1 July 2020 and for all existing tenancies from 1 April 2021, made EICR certificates a legal requirement for every private rental property in England.
An EICR – Electrical Installation Condition Report is an inspection of the fixed electrical installation of the property: the wiring, the consumer unit, the earthing and bonding, and all fixed electrical accessories. It must be carried out by a qualified electrician, NICEIC approved or equivalent and must be renewed every five years or at every change of tenancy if the existing certificate is within five years of expiry.
The penalty for not having a valid EICR certificate in place at the start of a new tenancy: up to £30,000 per breach. The local authority in the case of Chelsea properties, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, is the enforcement body.
The landlord on Sloane Avenue had missed his January renewal date. The certificate had expired. The tenancy could not legally begin. The penalty for proceeding without a valid certificate would have been up to £30,000, for a certificate that costs £240 and takes four hours to arrange.
Our EICR certificates for Chelsea landlords: from £240 per property. NICEIC approved. Certificate issued the same day; same-week availability. Call 020 7129 7418.
The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 require every landlord who provides a gas appliance boiler, gas hob, or gas fire in a rental property to have that appliance inspected annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. The inspection produces a Gas Safety Record commonly known as a CP12 certificate, named after the original CORGI Proforma 12 document.
A CP12 certificate must be provided to existing tenants within 28 days of the annual inspection. It must be provided to new tenants before they move in. The landlord must keep a record of every CP12 certificate for at least two years.
The penalty for not having a valid Gas Safe certificate in place: criminal prosecution. Not a civil penalty. A criminal offence under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, with a potential custodial sentence for the most serious cases.
A Chelsea landlord with four properties, each with a gas boiler, requires four annual CP12 inspections. At different tenancy start dates across the portfolio, the renewal dates are typically spread across the year, requiring the landlord to track four separate annual renewal dates and arrange four separate Gas Safe inspections.
Our CP12 certificates for Chelsea landlords: from £110 + VAT per property. Gas Safe registered engineers. Certificate issued the same day. Combined boiler service and Gas Safe certificate available from £210 + VAT for one visit, one engineer, one fixed price. Call 020 7129 7418.
Portable Appliance Testing: PAT testing is not a statutory legal requirement in the same sense as EICR and Gas Safe certificates. There is no specific legislation that mandates PAT testing for residential landlords in England.
However, the majority of landlord insurance policies require PAT testing for furnished rental properties as a condition of cover. A furnished Chelsea rental property with a television, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, and other portable electrical appliances, without a current PAT test certificate, may not be covered by the landlord’s insurance in the event of an electrical fault caused by a faulty appliance.
The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 both impose a general duty of care on landlords to ensure that electrical appliances provided to tenants are safe. PAT testing is the accepted method of demonstrating compliance with this duty.
For Chelsea landlords with furnished properties, particularly short-let and serviced accommodation properties, annual PAT testing is standard practice and required by most specialist landlord insurance products.
Our PAT testing for Chelsea landlords: from £105 per property. NICEIC approved. Certificate issued the same day. Volume pricing available for portfolios of three or more properties. Call 020 7129 7418.
EICR certificates for Chelsea landlords, NICEIC-approved electrician, inspection of the complete fixed electrical installation, certificate issued on the day of inspection. Valid for five years. Required at every change of tenancy if the existing certificate is within the five-year window.
The Sloane Avenue EICR was completed on Thursday. The certificate was issued digitally within two hours of the inspection concluding. The tenants moved in on Saturday. Our EICR service is built around the reality of Chelsea lettings, where new tenancy start dates are often fixed weeks in advance and the consequences of an expired certificate are immediate and significant.
Same-week availability as standard. Same-day certificate as standard. Not as a premium service. As the default.
EICR from £240 for a single property. Portfolio pricing from £120 per property for three or more properties. Call 020 7129 7418.
Annual Gas Safe landlord certificate (CP12) for Chelsea rental properties, Gas Safe registered engineer, inspection of all gas appliances and gas installation, certificate issued on the day of inspection. Annual requirement under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998.
Our Gas Safe engineers attend Chelsea and surrounding postcodes the same week as standard, with a same-day certificate issue. The CP12 is issued digitally on the day of inspection and stored on our system for the landlord’s records, with a renewal notification issued thirty days before the next annual date.
Gas Safe certificate from £110 + VAT for a single property. Portfolio pricing available. Combined boiler service and Gas Safe certificate from £210 + VAT, one visit, one Gas Safe engineer, both services completed simultaneously, one fixed price. Call 020 7129 7418.
PAT testing for Chelsea landlords with furnished rental properties. NICEIC-approved testing of all portable electrical appliances, a pass or fail result for each appliance, PAT test certificate issued on the day of testing.
For Chelsea furnished rental properties, particularly in the SW3, SW1X, and SW7 postcodes where furnished lets are the standard, annual PAT testing is required by the majority of specialist landlord insurance policies and provides the documented due diligence record that the general duty of care under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 requires.
PAT testing from £105 per property. Volume pricing available for portfolios. Combined PAT testing and EICR available in a single visit where both are due simultaneously, one visit, one fixed price. Call 020 7129 7418.
The annual Gas Safe certificate (CP12) inspection and the annual boiler service are frequently due at similar times because the boiler service is typically arranged at the same time as the Gas Safe certificate in the first year of a tenancy and subsequently renewed on the same annual cycle.
Combining the boiler service and the Gas Safe certificate inspection into a single visit by one Gas Safe registered engineer produces two outcomes simultaneously: the boiler is serviced and confirmed operating at the manufacturer’s specification, and the Gas Safe certificate is issued on the same day.
The combined visit costs less than two separate visits. The engineer attends once rather than twice. The landlord’s property is accessed once rather than twice, a significant practical advantage for Chelsea landlords whose tenants in the SW3 and SW1X postcodes are often not resident during working hours and for whom property access requires advance coordination.
Combined boiler service and Gas Safe certificate from £110. Gas Safe registered engineer. Both certificates were issued on the same day. Call 020 7129 7418.
Pre-tenancy renovation for Chelsea rental properties, bathroom renovation, kitchen renovation, decoration, flooring, and minor repairs are all carried out between tenancies by our in-house team. Gas Safe and NICEIC throughout. Lime plaster repair where required. Fixed price. Programme coordinated around the new tenancy start date to ensure the property is ready on the confirmed date.
Chelsea rental properties in the SW3 and SW1X postcodes command significant premiums over the wider London market, and the premium is directly correlated with the condition and specification of the property. A bathroom renovation between tenancies at a Chelsea property with a rental value of £5,000 per month generates a return on investment in the first year that no other form of property investment matches.
Pre-tenancy renovation from £3,500 for bathroom refresh. Free site visit and fixed price within 48 hours. Call 020 7129 7418.
Between-tenancy maintenance for Chelsea rental properties includes all repairs, updates, and maintenance items identified at the end of one tenancy, completed and ready for the next. All trades in-house Gas Safe plumbing, NICEIC electrical, decoration, flooring, and joinery coordinated within the void period between tenancies. Fixed price. No surprises. Property is ready for a new tenancy on the confirmed date.
The void period between tenancies in a Chelsea SW3 property costs the landlord an average of £5,000 to £7,500 per month in lost rental income. A maintenance programme that extends the void period by two weeks costs £2,500 to £3,750 in additional lost income on top of the maintenance cost. A single contractor with all trades in-house, completing every maintenance item in the minimum possible void period, is the most commercially rational approach to between-tenancy maintenance at any Chelsea property.
Between-tenancy maintenance from £500. Free site visit and fixed price. Call 020 7129 7418.
24/7 emergency maintenance for Chelsea landlords, Gas Safe emergency plumbing, NICEIC emergency electrical, boiler breakdown, burst pipes, blocked drains, and electrical faults. Fast response across Chelsea SW3, Knightsbridge SW1X, Belgravia SW1, South Kensington SW7, and Kensington W8.
For Chelsea landlords with tenants in residence, particularly the international and corporate tenants who occupy the highest-value properties in the SW3 and SW1X postcodes, emergency maintenance response within sixty minutes is not a premium service. It is the minimum standard that the tenancy and the property require.
Emergency callout from £115 + VAT. Gas Safe registered. NICEIC approved. Real person answers. 24/7. Call 020 7129 7418.
Full property inspection for Chelsea landlords between tenancies, complete assessment of all services, structure, fabric, and condition. Gas Safe appliance check. Electrical visual inspection. Plumbing check. Structural assessment. Condition report produced in writing. Recommended maintenance and renovation itemised and priced. One visit. One report. One fixed price per item is identified.
The full property inspection is the most efficient way to manage a Chelsea rental property between tenancies, identifying every maintenance item before the new tenancy begins, rather than responding to tenant maintenance requests throughout the tenancy.
Full property inspection from £150. Written condition report. Fixed price per item. Call 020 7129 7418.
Landlord Certification Calendar: What You Need and When
Every Chelsea landlord with a rental property must manage a certification calendar, including the annual and periodic certificates required by law, insurers, and letting agents as a condition of property management. Here is the complete calendar:
Annual Every Year: Gas Safe Certificate (CP12) every 12 months from the date of the previous certificate. Criminal offence to allow this to lapse. ✓ We issue from £110.
Boiler Service every 12 months. Required to maintain the manufacturer’s warranty and recommended alongside the annual Gas Safe certificate.
PAT Testing (furnished properties only) every 12 months for furnished rental properties. Required by most landlord insurance policies. ✓ We issue from £105.
Smoke Alarm Test every tenancy start date. The Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm (Amendment) Regulations 2022 require a working smoke alarm on every floor and a working carbon monoxide alarm in every room with a fixed combustion appliance. ✓ Tested as part of our property inspection.
Every Five Years: EICR Certificate every 5 years or at every change of tenancy if the existing certificate is within the five-year window. Civil penalty up to £30,000 for non-compliance. ✓ We issue from from £240 + VAT same week.
Our Expiry Alert Service: We track the expiry date of every certificate we issue for Chelsea landlords and send a renewal notification thirty days before each expiry date. No more missed renewals. No more Sloane Avenue situations. One call to us, and all certificates managed. Free with every certification programme.
Why Chelsea Landlords Use Us
Three companies told the Sloane Avenue landlord two to three weeks. We said Thursday. The difference is not capacity, it is organisation. Our NICEIC electricians work exclusively in the Chelsea and central London postcodes. They are available in the service area every week of the year, not dispatched from outer London on a two-to-three-week booking schedule.
Same-week availability is our standard. Not our premium. A Chelsea landlord who calls on Wednesday should not wait until the following month for an EICR certificate that determines whether a tenancy can legally begin. Landlord Services Chelsea Book Now
Every EICR certificate, Gas Safe certificate, and PAT test certificate we issue is provided to the landlord digitally on the day of the inspection. Not posted. Not emailed the following week. Issued same day because a Chelsea tenancy start date does not accommodate a one-week certificate turnaround.
The Sloane Avenue certificate was issued within two hours of the inspection concluding. The landlord had the certificate in his email by 4 pm on Thursday. The tenants moved in on Saturday as planned.
Gas Safe registered engineers and NICEIC approved electricians are directly employed by Chelsea Property Renovation & Maintenance Ltd. No subcontractors. No agency engineers. The same Gas Safe engineer who attends the annual CP12 inspection is the same engineer who attends the emergency callout.
The same NICEIC electrician who issues the EICR certificate is the same electrician who carries out any remedial work the EICR identifies. One team. Every certification. Directly employed. Call 020 7129 7418.
Chelsea landlords with three or more properties qualify for portfolio pricing across all certification services:
EICR: From £240 per property (standard £240) ✓ Gas Safe certificate: From £110 per property (standard £110) ✓
PAT testing: From £105 per property (standard £105) ✓ Boiler service £120 (standard £120)
The landlord with four Chelsea and Knightsbridge properties, who called on the Wednesday before the Saturday tenancy, is now on our annual portfolio programme at portfolio pricing across all four properties. The total annual certification cost across the four properties is less than the cost of a single void period extension caused by an expired certificate.
We maintain a certification calendar for every Chelsea landlord on our programme, tracking the expiry date of every EICR, Gas Safe certificate, and PAT test we issue and sending a renewal notification thirty days before each expiry date.
The Sloane Avenue situation, a missed EICR renewal, a Saturday tenancy, and a Wednesday emergency call is the situation our expiry alert service eliminates. Thirty days’ notice is enough to arrange renewal at our standard pricing and standard availability rather than requiring same-day emergency attendance at premium rates.
The expiry alert service is free for every Chelsea landlord on our certification programme. Call 020 7129 7418.
A Chelsea landlord who uses us for annual certifications has direct access to our complete renovation and maintenance service, bathroom renovation, kitchen renovation, decoration, flooring, emergency plumbing, and emergency electrical from the same team, at the same fixed price standard, with the same same-week availability.
The landlord on Sloane Avenue, who called on the Wednesday before the Saturday tenancy, now uses us for everything across his four-property portfolio. Not because we asked. Because the relationship that began with a Thursday EICR certificate gave him the confidence that the same standard applied to everything else.
How Much Do Landlord Certificates Cost in Chelsea?
An EICR certificate for a Chelsea rental property costs from £240 for a standard one to two-bedroom property. A larger property with three bedrooms, four bedrooms, and five floors costs more because the inspection takes longer and covers more circuits.
Typical EICR certificate costs for Chelsea properties:
One to two bedroom flat from £240, Three bedroom house from £240, Four to five bedroom house from £240, Portfolio pricing (three or more properties) from £240 per property
All prices include the NICEIC-approved inspection, the written EICR report, and the certificate issued the same day. Remedial work identified by the EICR is quoted separately on a fixed price basis. Call 020 7129 7418.
A Gas Safety certificate (CP12) for a Chelsea rental property costs from £110 for a property with one gas appliance, typically the boiler. Properties with additional gas appliances (gas hob, gas fire) cost more because additional appliances require additional inspection time.
Gas Safe certificate costs for Chelsea properties:
Gas Safety Inspection (CP12) £110 + VAT
Boiler service £120 + VAT
Combined Gas Safety Inspection and boiler service £210 + VAT
Portfolio pricing (three or more properties) call for rates
All prices exclude VAT. Parking and congestion charges are additional and fully chargeable. Out of hours: time and a half. Sundays and bank holidays: double time. The Gas Safety Inspection (CP12) and boiler service record are both issued on the day of the inspection. Call 020 7129 7418.
All prices include the Gas Safe registered inspection and the CP12 certificate issued the same day. Call 020 7129 7418.
PAT testing for a Chelsea furnished rental property costs £105 + VAT for up to 12 portable appliances, the typical range of a furnished flat, including television, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster, and lamps. Additional appliances are charged at £5 + VAT per item.

The true cost of an expired certificate is not the certificate. It is everything that depends on the certificate being valid.
An expired EICR certificate on a Chelsea property with a monthly rental value of £4,500:
Cost of the EICR certificate: £240-£420 + VAT.
Cost of a missed tenancy start date one week void: £1,125.
Cost of a penalty notice from RBKC: up to £30,000.
The Sloane Avenue landlord had a certificate that had expired in January. The cost of arranging renewal the following day rather than the following month: £0 additional, same price, same-day certificate, same-week availability.
The expiry alert service we provide free to every landlord on our programme costs nothing. It eliminates the scenario where a £240-£420 + VAT certificate becomes a £1,125 or £30,000 problem.

Read testimonials from satisfied homeowners across Chelsea, Knightsbridge, and Belgravia who trust us with their property renovation and maintenance needs.
“I called Chelsea Property Renovation on a Wednesday, the EICR on my Sloane Avenue flat had expired, and the new tenancy was starting Saturday. Three companies had said two to three weeks. Chelsea Property Renovation said Thursday. Certificate issued on Thursday, tenants on Saturday. I now use them for all four properties’ annual Gas Safe certificates, a five-yearly EICR programme, and PAT testing on the furnished flats. Expiry alerts thirty days before every renewal. Exactly what a Chelsea landlord with multiple properties needs.”

“Two Belgravia properties managed through Chelsea Property Renovation for all certification and maintenance requirements. Annual Gas Safe certificates on both properties combined with a boiler service in a single visit at one fixed price. EICR certificates were renewed on their five-year programme without any action required on my part. The thirty-day expiry alert meant both were renewed before I had remembered they were due.

What certificates does a landlord need in Chelsea?
Every Chelsea landlord with a rental property legally requires an EICR certificate (every five years civil penalty up to £30,000 for non-compliance, £240-£420 + VAT) and a Gas Safety Inspection (CP12) annually (criminal offence to allow this to lapse, £110 + VAT). Landlords with furnished properties should also carry out annual PAT testing (£105 + VAT, including 12 items) required by most specialist landlord insurance policies. Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms must be tested at every tenancy start. All prices exclude VAT. We provide all three certifications from one call. Call 020 7129 7418.
How often does a landlord need an EICR certificate in Chelsea?
Every five years, or at every change of tenancy if the existing certificate is within the five-year window. The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 require a valid EICR certificate before any new tenancy begins. A certificate that expires between tenancies must be renewed before the new tenancy starts, as the Sloane Avenue landlord discovered on a Wednesday before a Saturday tenancy. EICR certificates from £240 + VAT. Same-week availability. Same-day certificate. All prices exclude VAT. Call 020 7129 7418.
What is the penalty for not having a valid EICR certificate in Chelsea?
Up to £30,000 per breach enforced by the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. The RBKC has the power to issue a financial penalty of up to £30,000 where a landlord has failed to comply with the EICR requirements. An EICR certificate costs £240-£420 + VAT, depending on property size. Same-week availability. Same-day certificate. All prices exclude VAT. Parking and congestion charges additional. Call 020 7129 7418.
How much does an EICR certificate cost in Chelsea?
An EICR certificate for a Chelsea rental property costs £240-£420 + VAT, depending on the size of the property and the extent of the installation. The price is confirmed at the point of booking once the property details are provided. NICEIC approved same-week availability. Certificate issued the same day. All prices exclude VAT. Parking and congestion charges additional. Call 020 7129 7418 for a quote.
Do I need an annual Gas Safe certificate for my Chelsea rental property?
Yes. The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 require an annual Gas Safety Inspection of every gas appliance in a rental property, boiler, gas hob, and gas fire by a Gas Safe registered engineer. The resulting Gas Safety Record (CP12 certificate) must be provided to the tenant before or at the start of the tenancy and renewed annually. Criminal offence to allow this to lapse. Gas Safety Inspection £110 + VAT. Combined Gas Safety Inspection and boiler service £210 + VAT, one visit, one engineer, both issued same day. All prices exclude VAT. Call 020 7129 7418.
What is PAT testing, and does my Chelsea rental property need it?
Portable Appliance Testing is the testing of all portable electrical appliances in a rental property, including television, washing machine, dishwasher, kettle, and all other portable electrical equipment provided to tenants. Not a statutory legal requirement, but required by most specialist landlord insurance policies for furnished properties and provides documented compliance with the general duty of care under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. PAT testing £105 + VAT, including 12 items. Additional items £5 + VAT each. Certificate issued the same day. All prices exclude VAT. Call 020 7129 7418.
How quickly can you issue an EICR certificate in Chelsea?
Same week as standard, with same-day certificate issue on the day of inspection. The Sloane Avenue EICR was completed on the day after the landlord called, and the certificate was issued within two hours of the inspection concluding. Three companies had told the same landlord two to three weeks. EICR from £240 + VAT. All prices exclude VAT. Parking and congestion charges additional. Call 020 7129 7418.
Do you offer portfolio pricing for multiple Chelsea properties?
Yes. Portfolio pricing is available for landlords with three or more properties across Chelsea, Knightsbridge, Belgravia, South Kensington, and Kensington. EICR £240-£420 + VAT, Gas Safety Inspection £110 + VAT, PAT testing £105 + VAT, combined Gas Safety Inspection and boiler service £210 + VAT, all available at portfolio rates confirmed at the point of booking.
