Gloucester has one of the largest private rental markets in the county, much of it in the Victorian terraces of Barton and Tredworth and the streets around Kingsholm, plus a growing number of licensed HMOs across the city. Whatever the property, a satisfactory Electrical Installation Condition Report is a legal requirement at least every five years, and again whenever the tenancy changes, and where a property is licensed the council may ask to see it directly.
We test the fixed wiring methodically, from the consumer unit through to the furthest socket, and hand you a plain-English report alongside the formal certificate, ready to pass to a tenant, agent or licensing officer. Where an HMO has shared circuits and communal areas, we test those separately so the report holds up to scrutiny, and any remedial work is quoted as one fixed price and certified inside the 28-day window.

Your questions, answered
How much does a landlord EICR cost in Gloucester?
A landlord EICR typically costs between £150 and £300 for a standard home, with HMOs and larger properties usually a little more because of the extra circuits. We confirm one fixed price before booking.
Does an HMO in Gloucester need anything extra?
The EICR inspection is the same test, but HMOs carry extra duties and the council may want to see the certificate as part of a licence. We test communal areas and each let room so the report is complete.
What if the report comes back unsatisfactory?
It means specific items need attention, which we explain in plain English and quote as a fixed price. We can certify the remedial work and re-issue a satisfactory report within the 28 days the law allows.
