EICR - Inspection & Testing
Ensuring the safety and compliance of your electrical system
An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is essential for ensuring the safety and reliability of your electrical system. Previously known as a Periodic Inspection, an EICR is the electrical equivalent of an MOT—a thorough check to assess the condition of your installation and identify any potential risks.
For homeowners, an EICR provides peace of mind that your electrics are in good working order, while for landlords, it is now a legal requirement to have a valid EICR in place for all rental properties. Failure to comply could result in penalties, so regular inspections are crucial for both safety and compliance.
What’s Involved?
A qualified electrician will assess the condition of your electrical installation, checking for wear and tear, potential hazards, and compliance with regulations.
The inspection typically takes less than a day for an average-sized home.
If any issues are found, they will be recorded in the report, along with clear, no-obligation advice on necessary remedial work.
