What is an EICR & Why It Matters

An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a thorough inspection of your property’s electrical system. It identifies issues such as:

  • Overloaded circuits ⚠️

  • Electrical shock risks ⚡

  • Outdated or faulty wiring

  • Potential fire hazards

Our services include:

  • Landlord EICR Certificates in Essex

  • Social Housing Electrical Safety Reports

  • Homebuyer Electrical Reports

  • Commercial EICR Testing for Offices, Shops & Industrial Premises

Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations 2020, landlords must obtain a valid electrical safety certificate (EICR) at least every 5 years or at the start of each tenancy. Non-compliance can lead to fines of up to £30,000.
