Our Core EICR Services

We understand that an EICR is more than just a piece of paper; it's the verified safety record of your property. We offer comprehensive inspections to ensure your electrical systems are safe, compliant with BS 7671, and functioning correctly.

Mandatory Compliance & Landlord Safety

We help landlords meet the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (ESSPS) Regulations.

• Mandatory 5-Year EICR: Comprehensive testing and certification required for rental properties and HMOs.

• Change of Tenancy Inspections: Swift EICR checks between tenants to ensure continued safety.

• Insurance Validation: Providing the necessary periodic testing report often required by commercial and residential building insurers.

Pre-Purchase & Homeowner Safety

For homeowners, the EICR provides peace of mind and identifies hidden risks before they become costly emergencies.

• Home Buyer Reports: A detailed EICR to assess the electrical integrity of a property prior to purchase, aiding in price negotiation.

• Age Assessment: Determining the age and condition of the wiring system (e.g., whether it’s rubber, lead, or modern PVC).

• Remedial Work Quoting: Providing transparent, itemized quotes for any necessary C1 (Danger Immediate) or C2 (Potentially Dangerous) fault repairs.

Commercial and Industrial EICR

Business premises and facilities require more frequent and detailed inspections due to higher usage.

• Commercial Periodic Inspections: Conducting EICRs every 5 years or at change of occupancy, as required by the Electricity at Work Regulations.

• 3-Phase Testing: Specialised EICR services for industrial distribution boards and high-capacity circuits.

• Emergency Lighting Tests: Combining the EICR with the required annual test of emergency lighting systems.

Reporting and Documentation

• Digital Certificates: Provision of clear, easy-to-read, digital EICR certificates immediately upon completion of the test.

• Fault Classification: Clear coding of C1, C2, C3, and FI classifications so you know the severity of any discovered issues.

• Nuisance Tripping Analysis: Advanced diagnostics to identify and diagnose why circuit breakers or RCDs are tripping.
