Who Needs an EICR London? Protect Your Property and Occupants

Whether you are a landlord, homeowner or planning to sell your property, getting an EICR certificate is a legal requirement that ensures electrical safety and protects occupants. 

Discover if you need an EICR certificate to sell your house and stay compliant with UK regulations.

An EICR Report is a formal assessment of the fixed electrical installation within a property. It is required or strongly recommended for anyone responsible for maintaining a safe electrical system.

Our EICR Services Are Ideal For:

Landlords
Landlords in England are legally required under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 to ensure electrical installations are safe. A valid EICR Certificate must be in place and renewed at least every five years.
Failure to comply may result in fines up to £30,000. There may be problems in tenancy agreements as well.

Homeowners
While homeowners are not legally required to obtain an EICR, it is strongly recommended particularly for older properties. An inspection can uncover hidden electrical faults before they cause fires, electric shocks, or costly repairs.

Letting and Estate Agents
Letting and managing agents rely on valid EICRs to confirm properties meet legal and safety standards before a tenancy begins. This protects both clients and professional reputation while reducing legal exposure.

Commercial Property Owners
Offices, shops, warehouses, and HMOs must maintain safe electrical systems for employees, visitors, and insurers. A commercial EICR supports health and safety compliance, insurance validity, and duty-of-care obligations.

Our engineers carry out professional EICR inspections across London and surrounding areas, delivering accurate, compliant reports with minimal disruption.

If your EICR is marked “Unsatisfactory,” we’ll provide a comprehensive quote for the necessary repairs. Once those are completed, you’ll receive a new “Satisfactory” EICR certificate.

When should landlords refresh their EICR?

Every 5 years, or at the beginning of each new tenancy.

Do you cover all of London?

Yes. We operate throughout Central, East, South, West, and North London, including Croydon, Bromley, Hackney, Enfield, Barnet

What is the lifespan of an EICR certificate?
