Understanding EICRs

What Is an EICR?

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a formal inspection of your property's electrical systems. It identifies potential hazards, defective or outdated wiring, and any non-compliance with BS 7671 (18th Edition Wiring Regulations).

For landlords in England, an EICR is a legal requirement under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations. It is generally required at least every 5 years, or sooner if the previous report recommends a shorter inspection interval. A valid satisfactory report can usually be supplied to new tenants during that period without a fresh inspection, provided it remains in date and covers the installation. For ongoing portfolio help beyond a single report, see our landlord electrical compliance support.

C1 — Danger present. Immediate remedial action required. Do not use until fixed.
C2 — Potentially dangerous. Urgent remedial action required.
FI — Further investigation required without delay.

Common Questions

EICR — Frequently Asked Questions

For landlords in England, an EICR is generally required at least every 5 years, or sooner if the previous report recommends a shorter inspection interval. A valid satisfactory report can usually be supplied to new tenants during that period without a fresh inspection, provided it remains in date and covers the installation. Failure to maintain a valid EICR can result in fines from the local authority.
Costs depend on the size of the property, number of circuits, and condition of wiring. We provide clear upfront pricing so there are no hidden surprises. Contact us for a fixed-price quote for your specific property.
Most domestic inspections take 2–4 hours depending on the size of the property and number of circuits. Larger homes or commercial buildings may take longer, but you'll always receive a clear timescale before work begins.
If issues are found, you'll be given a detailed report highlighting defects. As a NAPIT-approved electrician, we can provide a clear quotation for any remedial work required and retest once completed, so you quickly receive a satisfactory certificate.
An EICR is recommended every 10 years for owner-occupied homes, every 5 years for rental properties, and at shorter intervals where the previous report recommends it. For commercial premises, the appropriate interval depends on the type of installation. Landlords must provide a valid, in-date EICR to tenants and their local authority on request.
It isn't a legal requirement, but many buyers and solicitors request one for peace of mind. Having a recent EICR can help speed up the sale process and demonstrate the property is electrically safe.
