Electrical Safety Certificates (EICR)
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a structured inspection of everything electrical in a property, from the consumer unit to the furthest socket. It tells you what is safe, what needs attention and what can wait, with every observation coded and explained.
Landlords in England must have a satisfactory EICR at least every five years. Homebuyers use them to avoid expensive surprises. Whatever the reason, you get the formal certificate plus a plain-English summary. If anything needs putting right, we quote it as a clear fixed price.

Safety certificates questions, answered
How much does an electrical safety certificate cost?
It depends on the size of the property and the number of circuits. Landlord and multi-property rates are agreed up front, with a clear price before you book.
How often should I have an EICR?
Rented homes need one at least every five years, or at a change of tenancy. For your own home, every ten years is the usual guide, sooner for older installations and when buying.
What happens if the report is unsatisfactory?
It just means one or more items need attention. We explain exactly what they are in plain English and give you a fixed price to put them right and re-issue a satisfactory report.
How long does an EICR take?
Two to four hours for most homes, depending on size and the number of circuits. We work cleanly and put everything back exactly as we found it.
