Dial a Contractor has been providing Compliance Certificates to the property industry since 1998. Initially the only two compliance certificates required were the Electrical Compliance Certificate and Beetle Certificates, but recent legislation has seen the addition of three more Certificates: (1) Plumbing Certificate (2) Gas Certificate (3) Electric Fence Certificate.


Meaning that most homes will require a minimum of two Compliance Certificates, electrical and plumbing and possibly as many as five compliance certificates depending on what installations you have in your home, but generally the beetle electrical and plumbing certificates are what will be required for most homes.


ELECTRICAL INSPECTIONS:

  • Certifies that the electrical installation on the property complies with the required safety standards.
  • Governed by the Occupational Health & Safety Act.
  • The certificate must not have been issued more than 2 years prior to the transfer date, provided there have been no modifi cations to the installation since being issued.
  • Parties cannot contract out of this or agree to waive the requirement; however, they may agree that the responsibilities in respect of the installation be transferred from the seller to the purchaser (where the purchaser is undertaking a big renovation after transfer)
  • Regulations state property owner may not allow the transfer of ownership without the certificate. Parties may however agree in the Agreement of Sale that it is the purchaser's responsibility to obtain it, provided it is done before transfer.

BEETLE INSPECTIONS:

  • Not governed by any law, but a practice that has evolved over the years.
  • Parties agree contractually on the validity period of the certificate once issued.
  • Parties can contract out of this; however, if parties agree that no certificate is necessary and bank requires it for purchaser's bond, then that is for the purchaser's expense.
  • Seller is required to obtain the certificate prior to transfer. Best for the inspection and remedial work to be carried out asap after the deal is concluded due to bank and bond requirements and obviously prior to purchaser moving in; however, the parties can agree it is the purchaser's responsibility to obtain.
