Services We Offer

New Victorian regulations require rental providers to complete a variety of safety checks at their property. At CheckHero, we offer our clients a thorough, friendly, and accredited service to meet all your compliance needs.
CheckHero is a comprehensive compliance service, offering a full suite of mandatory gas, electrical and smoke alarm checks. Our three-in-one comprehensive bundle is our most popular option. There are no strings attached - no subscriptions (which lead to disproportionately high prices in year 2 onwards), no joining or setup fees, lock-in contracts or exit fees. We offer the best rates, backed with a best price guarantee.
Safety and trust are our priority, so we offer double insurance on each job for added peace of mind. Landlords and agents are provided full compliance documentation following each check. Finally, we are happy to help facilitate any required repair work with our extensive network of tradespeople and professionals. Our service is seamless, easy and reliable - exactly as it should be.

New Regulations for Landlords

Under new Victorian legislation, rental providers are periodically required to complete a variety of safety inspections, including in relation to gas and electrical services. In addition, rental providers are required to maintain a record of these inspections including, among other things, the name and registration number of the person doing the check, the date of the check and an associated compliance report. At CheckHero, you have peace of mind that all these compliance and regulatory requirements are fulfilled.

We ensure that all properties are checked thoroughly, with each two-yearly check per government regulations for electrical and gas, together with an annual smoke alarm check.
Safety and trust are our priority, so we offer double insurance on each job for added peace of mind.

We at Yabonza Australia would highly recommend Gas & Electrical Safety Checks. They honestly take the hassle out of all your compliance needs for your residential property portfolio. We have not been working with them for very long however in this time they have always shown a high level of professionalism.

After changing over 2 providers offering the same service we can safely day that we're definitely sticking with these guys. It's was a nightmare dealing with the previous companies we used. We had numerous complaints from our tenants, due to reliability issues, rudeness, unprofessional-ism etc. Changing over to this company has been an excellent decision. We haven't had any complaints whatever. Their customer service from the office back-end and onsite dealing with tenants has been exceptional so far. We highly recommended them and will continue to use them.

Comprehensive deal FAQ

Are you locked in to any contracts?

keyboard_arrow_down

No. You are not obligated to continue using us, and there are no penalties or fees. There are also no subscriptions or yearly payments. You can book our competitively priced comprehensive 3-in-1 package as a once off.

Do I get penalised if the tenants are absent on inspection day?

keyboard_arrow_down

No. We hold all responsibility with liaising with the tenants and you are not required to pay any call out fees etc.

Do I need to pay for the service upfront?

keyboard_arrow_down

If you are a private landlord (rather than booking through a real estate agent), you are required to prepay for our service. However, if you organise our service through your real estate agent, the charge can be deducted from your next rental and therefore not required to prepay.

Is this inspection bundle discount only available if I book all three checks?

keyboard_arrow_down

Yes. Our special bundle pricing is only offered if you book the three mandatory checks: gas, electrical and smoke alarms. You can book individual jobs, but the cost per each job will be higher.

Are there any other hidden costs that I am unaware of?

keyboard_arrow_down

No. Our comprehensive deal pricing is fixed and no matter what the circumstance there are no add-on costs or fees for the testing/certificates.

If there is an urgent/unsafe emergency repair required, we will call your agent or yourself for authorisation.
