A full inspection and test of the fixed wiring in your property, carried out by our own NICEIC approved electricians. Certificate issued the same day it passes.
Who this is for. Homeowners buying or selling, landlords who need one by law, and anyone who has just moved in and wants to know what they have actually bought.
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a full inspection and test of the fixed wiring: the consumer unit, every circuit, the earthing and bonding, and a sample of the accessories. Not the kettle and the telly, the parts you cannot see.
We isolate circuits, take real readings, and record them. A typical three bed house is two to four hours. You get a satisfactory or unsatisfactory result plus a list of anything found, coded by how serious it is.
Landlords in England must hold a valid EICR at least every five years, give the tenant a copy within 28 days, and produce one for the council within seven days if asked. Penalties reach 30,000 pounds per breach.
Two questions and a picture of your fuse board is usually enough for us to price it.
Including working around tenants, or collecting keys from your agent.
Power off in stages. We tell you before each one.
Issued and emailed the day it passes. Any remedials quoted at the same time.
Two to four hours for a typical three bed house. It depends on the number of circuits rather than the number of bedrooms, so a flat with a big board can take longer than a house with a small one.
Yes, in stages, for the testing. We tell you before each one. If you work from home say so when you book and we will plan around your calls.
You get the remedial work quoted at the same time as the report, so the 28 day clock is not running while you chase a price. There is no obligation to use us for the remedials.
It is not a legal requirement, but buyers and their solicitors increasingly ask. Having one in hand stops it becoming a late negotiating point.
Old boards and rewireable fuse boxes swapped for a modern consumer unit with RCBOs and surge protection.
