EICR testing should only be done by qualified professionals, so get in touch today for a thorough and accurate EICR test.
An electrical installation condition report (EICR) test is carried out by qualified electricians to identify any potential electrical hazards, defects, or non-compliance with current safety standards. This testing is required to ensure that the electrical installation is fit for continued use.
During the EICR testing, your local electrician will inspect and test all electrical installations and appliances, including the consumer unit, wiring, sockets, switches, and light fittings.
They will also test the earthing and bonding, as well as the operation of residual current devices (RCDs) and circuit breakers.
After completing the EICR testing, the electrician will issue a report to highlight any defects or potential hazards that need to be addressed.
This report will also provide a recommended timeframe for any necessary repairs or upgrades to be carried out.
Since April 2021, EICR tests have been a legal obligation for new homebuyers and landlords. If you don’t yet have one, you will be held liable for any electrical faults that happen in your property.
To ensure this doesn’t happen to you, get your EICR test with our fully NICEIC accredited electrical contractors for a 100% safe and professional service.
Whether you need your EICR test at a domestic or commercial property, our fully qualified electricians will have the job done quickly, safely and with minimal disruption to your home or office.

An electrical installation condition report (EICR) is when your electrical installations are tested by a qualified electrician to ensure they are not a fire or electrical risk to the building and its occupants.
For offices, HMOs, and domestic rental properties in the UK, you must get an EICR test every five years and between tenancy changes. However, this differs between the types of buildings. Higher risk buildings like petrol stations, hospitals, and launderettes need an EICR test every year.
An EICR certificate’s cost will vary between £79 – £300 based on the type and size of your building. For a free quote, get in touch at 01204 952 628.
You can legally sell your house without a prior EICR test , although a potential buyer may be advised by a legal team against buying a home without it.
The main legal requirement for EICR testing is for UK landlords to get a new EICR landlord electrical safety certificate every five years and between every new tenancy.
