For anyone owning or renting out property in Czechia

Your Czech house has legal obligations. Nobody tells you which.

Chimney checks, gas, electrical inspections, lightning protection, energy certificates — Czech rules are scattered across decrees and technical standards, almost none of it in English. Miss one and your insurer may refuse to pay.

We keep it in plain English. Same Czech law, no jargon.

Why this is harder if you are not Czech

The rules are not in one placeObligations sit in separate decrees, government regulations and ČSN technical standards — and they differ for houses, flats and rented property.
Almost nothing is in EnglishOfficial sources are Czech-only. Even fluent speakers struggle with terms like spalinová cesta or revize.
Tradespeople rarely speak EnglishThe chimney sweep or inspector who turns up will hand you a Czech report. Knowing what it is for matters.
Insurance is where it hurtsInsurers ask for inspection reports after a fire or water damage. No report can mean a reduced payout or none at all.
