Electrical Maintenance & Testing in York
Electrical Maintenance & Testing in York from SK Facilities: planned visits, clear reports and one number to call, for sites across YO1 and nearby Northallerton, Scarborough.
Why York sites choose planned electrical maintenance
Commercial property in York includes city-centre retail and leisure units, hospital, university and civic buildings and business parks on the city edge. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.
Many York premises have fixed-wire tests overdue after changes of tenant, so we check the last EICR date during the survey.
