Gas and Electrical Safety Check Frankston

When it comes to rental safety, due diligence isn’t something you can afford to ignore. A loose electrical connection, a gas leak or an out-of-date smoke alarm can quickly turn into something far more serious. Here’s the good news; all of this is easily preventable with a proper safety check.

At Compliance Fixer, we’ve inspected over 50,000 properties for Melbourne property managers and landlords. From switchboards and RCDs to gas appliances and smoke alarms, we carry out thorough inspections in accordance with Victorian rental standards.

We may have inspected more homes than you’ve had hot dinners, but each place we visit we treat it like a family home. We don’t march around with dirty boots on your freshly cleaned carpets. We keep things tidy and quiet, and tell you exactly what we’re doing and why. Not over the top technical talk.

Our team is based in Highett, and you can call us now to organise your next gas and electrical safety check in Frankston.

All-in-One Rental Safety Checks for Frankston Properties

From units to apartments, homes, and stores, the condition of every rental property must meet the Victorian state government’s minimum rental standards. In the past, arranging all the necessary inspections required hours of admin and paperwork, especially if multiple companies were needed.

This is where we come in. Rather than coordinating multiple trades, we consolidate smoke alarms, gas, and electrical inspections into a single visit. All Compliance Fixer technicians are licensed, registered, and leave no stone unturned.

Booking is also very simple with the help of our 7-point booking system. Booking is fast and convenient, with urgent appointments typically available within a few days.
