Tell us about the Livingston property and the bundle is built around what it actually needs.

Letting in Livingston: the practical points
Portfolio landlords in Livingston feel the bundle effect most: one calendar across properties, one document standard, one renewal rhythm — and when West Lothian Council, a lender or a buyer asks for the compliance position, the answer is a folder, not a fortnight of phone calls.
The law
What the law asks of landlords in Livingston
Think of the bundle as managing four legal clocks at once: gas (12 months, HSE-enforced), electrical (up to 5 years in England, Scotland and Wales, council-enforced in England), energy (10-year EPC plus the England-and-Wales MEES floor), and alarms (nation-specific, tenancy-start proof in England). Each clock has its own penalty regime; the bundle's job is that none of them ever runs out unnoticed.
The bundle is a convenience, not a legal product: your CP12, EICR, EPC, alarm check and PAT record are each issued under their own rules, by appropriately qualified professionals, on their own renewal cycles. We coordinate the diary so nothing lapses.
Penalties stated are statutory maximums or court-set; West Lothian Council is the local housing authority for Livingston.
The inspection
How the bundle is assembled
The assembly is per-nation by design: Scotland's version includes interlinked alarm standards and Repairing Standard checks; Wales's runs on the Renting Homes framework; Northern Ireland's drops the EICR (no general duty) while keeping gas, EPC and fitness-standard items. What stays constant is the principle — every certificate from a correctly registered professional, on one calendar.
Pricing
What the bundle costs
The saving is real but bounded — mostly callout and coordination, not the certificates themselves, which take the time they take. Where the bundle genuinely pays is avoided lapses and re-lets that don't stall on missing paperwork. Compare the range here against booking each certificate separately in your area and the arithmetic is usually short.
Credentials
Who you're letting in
A bundle is only as good as its weakest registration, so ours are assembled trade by trade: Gas Safe registration for the gas record, recognised-scheme electricians for the EICR, accredited domestic energy assessors for the EPC — each verified individually before booking, never covered by a general handyman ticket.
FAQ
Before you book: quick answers
My agent manages the property — who is responsible?
Legal duties stay with the landlord even when an agent handles the bookings, unless specific duties are contractually delegated and accepted. Confirm in writing which certificates the agent tracks, and keep your own copies regardless.
What paperwork should I hold at any given time?
The current gas record and the previous two years', the in-date EICR with any remedial confirmations, the EPC, alarm test evidence per tenancy, and any licence-specific certificates. Digital copies organised per property answer most agent, council and lender requests.
What is a landlord compliance bundle?
A combined booking that covers the recurring safety certificates a rental needs — typically the annual gas safety record, the 5-yearly EICR, the EPC when due, and alarm checks — arranged together instead of piecemeal.
I'm a first-time landlord — where do I start?
Before the tenancy: gas safety record, satisfactory EICR, valid EPC at E or above (England and Wales), working alarms evidenced at move-in, deposit protection and the right prescribed information for your nation. A bundle covers the certificate half of that list in one go.
How do the different renewal cycles fit together?
Gas is annual; the EICR runs on a cycle of up to 5 years; the EPC lasts 10 years and matters when re-letting; alarms are evidenced at each tenancy start. A bundle aligns the annual visit as the anchor and slots the longer cycles in as they fall due.
