Building/electrical advice

Can anyone advise on this. A few years ago before my dad died he owned a house he rented out that needed some electrical work - part rewire/consumer unit - and because he was not very well I arranged to have it done.

I don't think I got a certificate for the work. The house had been used as a cannabis farm by the tenant and the amount of work to put right I just got so tired of it I didn't chase stuff up I should have done and put it off until I forgot about it.

As the house is now being sold if I get a qualified electrician to do an EICR check and actually make sure I get the certificate does that bring any certification it needs up to date?

Thanks

    Electrically yes that should be OK. I'm assuming all the damage from your weed gardeners got repaired.

    Yes - funny thing is they fled when a house across the road was raided for same thing - no idea if they were linked I'd guess so. The damage they do is quite an eye opener !

    Sadly they don't give a monkeys about anything. They did a local industrial unit near us before Christmas. Don't think the local popo knew where to start. Numourous skips involved.

    Mine and the mrs first house became a rental when we sold.
    Became a cannabis factory that was identified partly as a result of the neighbours complaining their entire adjoining wall was going mouldy.
