Electrical Inspections — EICRs
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is like a health check for your electrics. It’s essential for landlords, recommended for homeowners every 10 years, and required more frequently for certain commercial properties.
We carry out thorough EICRs to identify:
• Overloaded circuits
• Potential fire hazards
• Electric shock risks
• Defective wiring and components
• Lack of earthing or bonding
Our reports are clear, detailed, and jargon-free, so you know exactly what’s going on with your electrical system — and what needs to be done to make it safe.
