What is an EICR?
An EICR is a full check of your electrical system.
Think of it like an MOT for your electrics. We test the wiring, circuits and consumer unit to make sure everything is safe to use and not showing signs of damage or wear.
At the end, you get a report that confirms whether the installation is satisfactory or if anything needs fixing.
Who Needs an EICR?
EICRs are used for a few different situations.
You might need one if you are a landlord renting out a property, buying or selling a property, a homeowner wanting peace of mind, or running a business or commercial site. For landlords, it’s a legal requirement to have a valid EICR carried out at least every five years.
How Long Does an EICR Take?
Most inspections take between 2 to 4 hours depending on the size of the property.
Larger properties or commercial sites can take longer.
What Happens if It Fails?
If your report comes back as unsatisfactory, don’t panic.
It usually means there are a few issues that need sorting, not a full rewire.
We’ll explain what’s been found in plain terms and give you a clear quote to put it right.
