Certificates For Homes That Change Hands Often
This is a suburb of modest family houses on the flat Cape Flats, between the M5 and Kromboom Road, with the Crawford station on its eastern side. It draws first-time buyers as well as long-standing families, and whichever group you belong to, a sale leads to the same requirement. The seller must supply an Electrical Certificate of Compliance before transfer, because the law demands one whenever a property is sold.
Buyers are not the only people who ask for paperwork. Plenty of owners here let out a flat in the yard or a spare room, and agents or insurers generally prefer to see a current certificate first. A property with a gas stove, a gas heater or an electric fence along the wall needs separate certificates for those installations, and buyers often add a beetle certificate where the roof or floors are timber.
Many houses in the area have been extended at some point, so it pays to list every added bedroom, garage and outbuilding when you book. Each of them adds circuits that must be tested, and a certificate that ignores the yard room is of little use to a buyer or an insurer.
Agents working these streets know the pattern well. A sale that looked simple on the offer date can sit idle for weeks when the certificate is ordered only after the buyer signs. Landlords with sitting tenants face the same squeeze, since the visit has to suit the household and not just the deadline. Booking early removes most of that pressure.
What Inspectors Commonly Find In Extended Houses
Properties altered over decades fail for a short list of reasons, and nearly all are fixable without drama. Extensions are frequently connected to the nearest circuit rather than their own, loading cable that was never intended for it. Original boards may have no earth leakage protection or may still carry old fuse holders. Earth bonding to metal pipes is often incomplete after plumbing work, and sockets in garages and yards sometimes have no weather protection whatsoever.
Damp ground is a particular enemy of outdoor wiring on low, flat land like this. Gate motors, garden lights and wall sockets that have stood in the weather for years can corrode inside long before they stop working. The inspector looks at all of it, together with the state of the board and the protection on every circuit.
- Yard rooms powered from a household socket or an extension lead
- Boards with no earth leakage unit, or with old rewirable fuses
- Missing or incomplete earth bonding
- Corroded outdoor sockets, light fittings and gate-motor connections
- Electric fences without a current certificate
Booking The Inspection Without Hassle
Phone 021 203 5337 or fill in the form on this page, and tell us whether the certificate is for a sale, a lease or a renewal. There is no call-out fee and no obligation. The estimator on this page gives a rough figure for an average home, which we then confirm once we know about extensions and outbuildings.
During the visit our inspector tests the circuits, examines the board and earth leakage unit, checks bonding and outdoor wiring, and records everything needing attention. A clean result means the certificate is issued. A failure produces a clear written list plus a repair quote, and our electricians can complete the repairs and arrange the re-test.
Most delays come down to access. Someone needs to be home, or the agent must hold keys, and every room has to be open, including the yard unit. Sellers should ask their agent when transfer is expected, so the inspection is booked early enough to leave room for repairs before the deadline.

I am selling in Rondebosch East. When should I order the COC?
Order it as soon as you decide to sell, ideally before the property is listed. If defects turn up, there must be time to repair and re-test before transfer. Late ordering is the commonest reason a sale gets held up.
Does a flat in my yard need its own certificate?
It has to be part of the inspection. When the unit has its own sub-board or meter, the inspector tests that installation too. Mention every outbuilding when you book so nothing is left out of the certificate.
Can the inspection go ahead while I am at work?
Yes, provided your agent or a trusted person can let us in and keep every room open, including the garage and yard room. Someone on site helps, because the inspector may need to ask about an unclear circuit.
Will an old fuse board fail the inspection?
A board with rewirable fuses and no earth leakage unit is likely to fail. We can fit a modern board with proper protection, test the circuits again and issue the certificate once everything passes.
Does my electric fence need a separate certificate?
Yes. A fence installation has its own certificate, apart from the electrical one. Thermo Compliance can inspect the fence and energiser, correct faults and issue the certificate alongside the main inspection.
My bank asked for a plumbing certificate as well. Can you help?
Yes, plumbing certificates are issued through registered plumbers. Send the property address and what your agent requested, and we can coordinate the plumbing and electrical inspections for the same property.
Is a gas certificate only needed for gas stoves?
No. Gas stoves, heaters, gas geysers and the pipework behind them can all fall under it. If you are not sure the property has a gas installation, say so at booking and we will check on site.
As a landlord, when should the certificate be arranged?
Most landlords arrange the inspection before a new lease starts and keep the certificate with the lease file. Agents and insurers often ask to see it, and we can email a copy on request. Asking for a quote carries no obligation.
