An Electrical Installation Condition Report — EICR for short — is a formal inspection of a property’s electrical systems carried out by a qualified electrician. Think of it as an MOT for your electrics. It checks the condition of the wiring, consumer unit, sockets, switches and any fixed electrical equipment to make sure everything is safe and up to standard.
The inspection uses a simple grading system:
C1 — Danger present. Requires immediate action. C2 — Potentially dangerous. Requires remedial work. C3 — Improvement recommended but not urgent.
A satisfactory EICR is issued when there are no C1 or C2 items present. If C1 or C2 items are found, landlords are required to arrange remedial work within 28 days — or sooner if specified in the report.
Yes. Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, all landlords in England are legally required to:
Failure to comply can result in local authority enforcement action and fines of up to £30,000. If you’re unsure when your last EICR was carried out or whether your property is compliant, get in touch and we’ll help you work it out.
We carry out landlord EICRs regularly across Redland, including on Redland Road and Whiteladies Road. We know the area and we know the types of properties here — from older terraced rentals to newer build-to-let homes.
A standard landlord EICR starts from £195 + VAT for a one consumer unit property with up to one to two bedrooms. Multi-property discounts are available for landlords with larger portfolios. Get in touch for a fixed price based on your specific property.
If the inspection identifies any C1 or C2 items, we can carry out the remedial work and re-inspect — keeping everything with one contractor rather than having to find and coordinate a separate electrician.
Fully qualified and registered. All EICRs are carried out to the current edition of BS 7671 and accepted by local authorities, letting agents and insurance providers across Redland.

A standard landlord EICR starts from £195 + VAT for a property with one consumer unit and one to two bedrooms. Larger properties or those with multiple consumer units may cost more — get in touch for a fixed price based on your specific property. Multi-property discounts are available for landlords with larger portfolios.
Most standard rental properties in Redland take between one and three hours to inspect, depending on the size of the property and the number of circuits. We’ll give you an accurate time estimate when you book.
At least every five years, or at the start of each new tenancy — whichever comes first. If your last EICR is approaching its five-year anniversary, it’s worth booking now rather than waiting until a new tenancy triggers the requirement.
If any C1 or C2 items are found, you’re legally required to arrange remedial work within 28 days — or sooner if specified in the report. We can carry out that remedial work and provide written confirmation, keeping everything with one contractor.
The property needs to be accessible, but the tenant doesn’t need to be present. We’re used to working flexibly around tenant schedules and can liaise directly with tenants to arrange access if that’s easier for you.
Yes. As NICEIC Approved Contractors, our certificates are fully compliant with BS 7671 and accepted by letting agents, local authorities and insurance providers across Redland and the wider area.
