EICR and testing for every situation, one team
Whether it's a legal requirement or your own peace of mind. Pick one to see what's included.
EICR for homeowners
For homeowners who want to know their wiring is actually safe, not assume it.
- No legal requirement, but recommended every 10 years
- Full written report, not a verbal pass or fail
- Every observation graded by how serious it is
- Remedial work quoted and can be carried out by the same team
- Useful before major renovation work
- Peace of mind on a property with unknown electrical history
There's no set legal interval for an owner-occupied home, so most homeowners get one done out of genuine curiosity about wiring they've never had checked, especially in an older property. It tells you plainly what's fine and what isn't.
Landlord EICR certificates
Meets your legal obligation for rented properties, with a certificate you can actually rely on.
- Required at least every 5 years, or at each change of tenancy if sooner
- Satisfactory certificate provided to meet legal obligations
- Remedial work quoted immediately if the property doesn’t pass
- Suitable for single properties or larger portfolios
- Straightforward booking around tenancy dates
- Documentation you can hand straight to a letting agent
A landlord EICR isn't just a box to tick, an unsatisfactory report with unresolved issues is a real liability. We quote any remedial work on the spot and can usually turn it around fast enough to keep a tenancy or letting on schedule.
Pre-sale and pre-purchase EICR
A clear picture of a property’s electrical condition before you buy, sell or complete.
- Gives buyers, sellers or solicitors a clear written picture
- Can flag issues worth resolving, or negotiating on, before completion
- Turned around promptly to fit around a chain
- Independent report, not tied to any sale
- Remedial work quoted if you want it resolved before completion
- Suitable for residential and commercial property transactions
Buying or selling is one of the more common reasons we're asked for an EICR outside a landlord's legal requirement. It gives everyone involved a factual, written picture instead of a guess, which can matter at the negotiating stage as much as afterwards.
Periodic testing and remedial work
Testing to the current wiring regulations, with remedial work carried out by the same team.
- Testing to the current edition of the wiring regulations
- Suitable for domestic and commercial installations
- Every observation classified by severity, not lumped together
- Remedial work quoted from the same visit
- Same team tests and carries out the fix, nothing handed off
- Follow-up retest available once work is complete
Testing to the wiring regulations means classifying what's found properly, an immediate danger is not the same as something worth planning in over the next year, and a report that treats them the same isn't actually useful to you.
