If you’re a landlord in Bristol, ensuring your property is electrically safe and compliant is a legal requirement. We specialise in providing reliable Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) for landlords, helping you meet your safety obligations and protect your tenants.
An EICR is a detailed inspection of a property’s electrical systems to make sure everything is safe, sound, and working as it should. Think of it like an MOT for your car, but for the electrics in a house. It checks for:
The report will highlight any issues that need fixing and give the home a safety grade.
Generally from £175+VAT for a 1 consumer unit (fuse box) house with around 1-5 bedrooms. Discounts are available for multi-property owners or estate agents.
If your property differs, please get in touch and we can give your a bespoke fixed price quote.
Landlords are legally required to have an up-to-date EICR to ensure their property is safe for tenants. An EICR helps identify any potential electrical faults or hazards and provides you with the necessary documentation to prove your compliance with legal regulations in Bristol. Regular EICR checks can also prevent costly repairs and improve tenant safety.
Here’s why getting an EICR before buying is so important:
Yes, landlords in the UK are legally required to have an EICR carried out on their rental properties every 5 years or at the start of a new tenancy. This ensures the property’s electrics are safe for tenants.
Here’s what happens when you book an EICR:
The report uses simple codes:
C1: Immediate danger, needs fixing right away.
C2: Potential danger, needs attention soon.
C3: Improvement recommended, but not urgent.
A Satisfactory report is given when no C1 or C2 items are present.
If any dangerous or potentially dangerour issues are found (C1 or C2), landlords must ensure repairs are completed within 28 days, or sooner if specified by the electrician.
