An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a detailed assessment of the safety and condition of a property's fixed electrical installation. It identifies potential hazards, deterioration and areas that may require attention. EICRs are commonly required by landlords and are also recommended for homeowners and commercial properties.

In England, private landlords are generally required to have their property's electrical installation inspected and tested at least every five years, or sooner if the previous report specifies a shorter interval. A copy of the report must be provided to tenants in accordance with the regulations. We carry out landlord electrical safety inspections and provide the appropriate documentation.

If an EICR identifies potentially dangerous defects or issues requiring further investigation, the report will explain the findings and classify them according to their severity. We can advise on the necessary remedial work and provide a quotation to address the issues, helping you bring your electrical installation into a safe condition.

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) involves inspecting and, where appropriate, electrically testing appliances to help identify potential safety issues. Although PAT testing itself is not universally required by law, businesses must ensure electrical equipment is maintained in a safe condition. We can help assess and test portable electrical equipment as part of your workplace safety arrangements.

The cost depends on the size and type of property, the number of electrical circuits and the complexity of the installation. A small domestic property will typically require less testing than a large commercial premises. We provide quotations based on your property's requirements, so you know what to expect before work begins.
