Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)
We Keep Your Property Safe and Compliant
We take electrical safety very seriously. More than just a formality, an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is an essential safety inspection for your house or place of business. We conduct thorough inspections to find flaws, possible risks, and areas in need of development.

What Is an EICR?
We formally create an EICR document through a comprehensive testing and inspection of an electrical installation. It informs you of the security of your system. We search for anything that is potentially dangerous.
Moreover, we follow the same standards whether it’s a home, apartment, workplace, or warehouse. Our licensed electricians adhere to national standards and directives. We inspect every component, including the switches, sockets, and unit.
Why Do You Need an EICR?
We care about your safety. Electrical problems may result in injuries, fires, or worse. We can identify those problems before they become problematic with the help of an electrical installation condition report. It also assists you in adhering to the most recent legal and insurance regulations.
It is now legally required for landlords to present a current EICR at the beginning of a new tenancy or every five years. Homeowners can also profit because regular inspections guarantee the safety of their family and belongings.

What We Inspect
We inspect the building’s fixed electrical components. This covers switches, light fixtures, outlets, fuse boxes, and wiring. We also examine bonding and earthing. These lessen the risk of electric shocks.
Moreover, we look more closely than that. We put the system through both normal and malfunctioning tests. Our equipment and methods are up-to-date and dependable.
When we inspect, we search for:
- Overloaded circuits
- Broken or outdated wiring
- Signs of overheating
- Faulty connections
- Lack of proper earthing
What Happens After the Inspection?
We give you a thorough report after the inspection is finished. It provides a simple explanation of our findings. We display the state of your system using easy language.
- C1 denotes an urgent threat; an immediate solution is required.
- C2 indicates possible danger; immediate action is required.
- C3 indicates that while improvement is advised, it is not urgent.
- FI informs you that more research is necessary.
We don’t only provide you with a list of issues. Thus, we also provide professional guidance on how to repair them. We can also do the repairs if you’d like.
Who Needs an EICR?
We serve diverse clients with our EICR services. We can help you if you’re a property manager, company owner, landlord, or homeowner.
