How We’ve Helped
Installing a Bathroom With No Existing Plumbing
Claire first got in touch with us about installing a new bathroom in her home. There was no original plumbing to work from, so the supply and waste connections for the new toilet and sink unit had to be planned and installed from scratch.
We reassured Claire that we could install the toilet and sink unit with no issues, and with minimal mess. Our team then carried out the bathroom installation with ease.
Managing Gas Safety Certificates for Four Rental Properties
Claire was so thrilled with her new bathroom that she asked our team to look after the annual Gas Safety Certificates she needs for her four rental properties.
Landlords must have the gas appliances, fittings and flues in their rental properties checked every year by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and give tenants a copy of the record. Keeping track of this across several properties, each with its own expiry date, takes time and organisation.
Here’s how we manage it for Claire:
- We keep the tenant contact details, the address of each property and the expiry date of each certificate on our database.
- Before a certificate expires, Renata from our office contacts the tenants directly to arrange an inspection.
- Our engineer carries out the inspection and issues a new Gas Safety Certificate.
- Renata emails the new certificate to Claire.
This means Claire has no need to chase a plumbing company to get the checks done, or to remember the expiry dates for each flat.
Ongoing Support for Rental Properties
Claire also counts on our professional team to assist her promptly with plumbing problems in her rental properties, from a bathroom flood to a boiler repair.
What Claire Said
“Lazard Plumbing are very organised and have the tenant contact details and addresses of each property on their database and the expiry date of each certificate. Prior to expiry, Renata from the office contacts the tenants directly and makes arrangements to carry out an inspection to issue a new gas safety certificate and she e-mails us the certificate. This means I have no worries about chasing up a plumbing company to get this done or remembering the expiry dates of each flat.”
“The staff and, in particular, Costin are very professional and explain everything in detail. They are clean and tidy in all the work they have undertaken for us. I am really pleased with the services of Lazard Plumbing and have recommended them to several people including members of my family.”
