Electrical Certificate of Compliance (COC)
Ensuring Your Electrical Safety
Safety comes first in every home. An Electrical COC verifies that your property’s electrical installations, from the supply point to the control point, fully comply with the Occupational Health and Safety Act of 1993. Our certified electricians rigorously test your wiring and distribution boards. If we find faults, we provide a clear path to compliance. Therefore, you avoid potential legal liabilities after the sale.
Water Certificate of Compliance
Stopping Waste, Ensuring Compliance
Cape Town takes water conservation seriously. A Water Compliance Certificate is a mandatory requirement for properties sold under the City of Cape Town’s municipal authority (effective March 2011). We inspect your plumbing to confirm that no clean water goes to waste and that your system adheres to local by-laws. Furthermore, we check that your storm water does not discharge into the sewer system, keeping your property legally compliant.
Gas Certificate of Compliance
Leak-Free and Standardized Gas Installations
Gas installations demand strict adherence to safety standards. We issue Gas Compliance Certificates to confirm your system is safe, leak-free, and compliant with the Occupational Health and Safety Act of 1993. Whether you use gas for cooking or heating, our inspectors ensure every connection meets regulatory standards. Consequently, you protect your family and your property insurance validity.
Beetle Certificate of Compliance
Protecting Your Property from Wood-Destroying Organisms
Wood-destroying organisms (WDO) can cause unseen devastation. Our Beetle Certificate of Compliance supports your property sale by verifying the absence of beetles and other timber-infesting pests. We meticulously inspect visible roof trusses and wooden floorboards. If we detect an infestation, we recommend the correct treatment immediately, ensuring the structure remains sound for the new owners.
Electric Fence Certificate of Compliance
Secure Perimeter, Compliant Fencing
An electric fence is a powerful deterrent, but it must be safe. Our Electric Fence COC confirms that your energizers and earthing systems function correctly. This certificate not only ensures physical safety but also prevents radio and satellite interference caused by poor installations. We ensure your perimeter security meets all current legal requirements.
