    • Gas main consumer line leak and Pressure retention test
    • Carbon Monoxide (CO) testing to protect tenant health
    • Negative pressure testing for gas appliances

    The Challenges of CBD Rental Compliance

    With 4 out of 5 private dwellings in the CBD being rentals [Source: ABS 2021 Census Data], the risk of compliance issues is certainly high.

    As a property manager, you’ll probably already know the struggle of juggling these requirements. There’s endless coordination between tenants, building managers, and technicians, all of which take hours and hours to organise.

    Throw in strict contractor hours, pre-booked lift requirements, and the near-impossibility of finding parking, and you’ve got a recipe for missed appointments and frustrated stakeholders.

    Compliance Fixer

    Understanding Your Electrical Safety Compliance Obligations

    Electrical safety is not something to be taken lightly. Since the Victorian State Government introduced rental minimum standards in 2023, all rental providers in Melbourne’s CBD must comply. Compliance Fixer makes it simple. Our licensed and registered electricians handle everything, coordinating with tenants and property managers to find a time that suits everyone.

    All inspections are conducted in accordance with Section 4 of AS/NZS 3019 “Electrical Installations – Periodic Assessment” and verify all installations against AS/NZS 3000. We check:

    • Safety switch presence and functionality on all circuits
    • Full switchboard inspection, including gaps, loose wiring, and dislodged switches
    • Main earth system and point-of-attachment testing
    • Every light, power point, and appliance verified safe and functional
    • Carbon monoxide testing for gas-electric appliances
    • We provide clear reports with photographic evidence, and minor issues are often fixed on the spot, free of charge. Our reports are very easy to read and clearly separate works.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    I manage apartments in the Melbourne CBD. Can you handle high-rise access requirements?

    Yes. We’re used to working within CBD apartment buildings where lift bookings, concierge coordination, strict contractor hours, and limited parking are part of the process. We liaise with building management where needed and plan ahead so inspections run smoothly instead of turning into multiple return visits.

    What makes gas safety checks in high-rise buildings different?

    In high-rise properties, gas systems are often interconnected across multiple levels. We don’t just check the appliance itself. We also carry out Carbon Monoxide testing, negative pressure testing, review ventilation, and assess shared infrastructure where relevant. Apartment compliance requires more than a basic visual inspection.

    How often do electrical safety checks need to be completed for CBD rental properties?

    Victorian rental minimum standards (RMS) require electrical safety checks every two years. These must be completed by a licensed electrician, with proper documentation issued afterward. Even in newer CBD buildings, the two-year requirement still applies.

    What documentation will I receive after the inspections?

    After the gas and electrical safety checks are completed, you’ll receive a Certificate of Electrical Safety (COES) and detailed gas safety records. All reports are suitable for audit and record keeping, with clear explanations of what was tested and whether any rectification work is required. All documentation meets compliance with the Residential Tenancies compliance standards.

    Can gas and electrical checks be organised together for multiple CBD properties?

    Yes. We coordinate combined inspections so everything can be handled in one visit per property. For property managers overseeing multiple CBD apartments, this reduces admin, cuts down scheduling time, and keeps documentation consistent across your portfolio.

    What happens if you find an issue during the inspection?

    If something doesn’t meet compliance requirements, we clearly outline what needs attention. In many cases, minor issues can be rectified on the spot. If further work is required, you’ll receive straightforward guidance so you can resolve it quickly and avoid compliance risk.

    Are there extra costs for CBD call-outs, parking, or building access?

    No. Our pricing is fixed and transparent. We don’t pass on parking fees, surprise call-out charges, or hidden extras. You receive one coordinated visit and one invoice, which makes budgeting far simpler for landlords and property managers.

    Why is compliance particularly important in the Melbourne CBD?

    With 4 out of 5 private dwellings in the CBD being rentals, compliance scrutiny is high. In densely populated buildings, safety issues can affect multiple residents, not just one tenancy. Staying on top of gas and electrical safety checks reduces legal exposure and protects both tenants and property owners.

    Will I receive notice when my next smoke alarm, gas, or electrical safety check is required?

    Yes, we actually send out automated reminders and alerts letting you know when any compliance checks are required. From here, it’s simple and easy to arrange your next inspection!
