EICR electrical safety inspection arranged for your rental property - qualified electricians coordinated, legal compliance sorted, any remedial work organised.
### Stay Legal with Electrical Safety
Since June 2020, **EICRs are mandatory for all rental properties** in England. Every 5 years minimum, and at the start of new tenancies.
No EICR means you can't legally let the property. Simple as that.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** EICRs protect tenants and protect you legally. If there's an electrical fault and you don't have a valid EICR, you're in serious trouble. Worth the expense.

### The Legal Requirement
| ✅ Compliant | ❌ Non-Compliant | |--------------|------------------| | EICR by qualified electrician every 5 years | No inspection certificate | | Any C1/C2 faults fixed within 28 days | Dangerous faults ignored | | Copy provided to tenant | No documentation | | Records kept of all inspections | Can't prove compliance |
The difference? **Legal operation versus potential prosecution and insurance issues.**

Frequently Asked Questions about EICR arrange in Tiverton
What is an EICR and do I legally need one?
EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a full inspection of your property's electrical system by a qualified electrician. Since June 2020, it's a legal requirement for all rental properties in England - must be done every 5 years and at the start of new tenancies. Without one, you can't legally let the property.
How much does an EICR cost?
Depends on property size and age. Small flat might be £150-200, average three-bed house £200-300, larger or older properties more. I'll get you quotes from qualified electricians I work with regularly and coordinate the whole thing.
How long does the inspection take?
Usually 2-4 hours depending on property size. The electrician needs access to all rooms, the consumer unit, and any outbuildings. They'll test all circuits, sockets, switches, and fixed electrical items.
What if the EICR finds problems?
The report will classify any issues as C1 (dangerous), C2 (potentially dangerous), or C3 (improvement recommended). C1 and C2 faults must be fixed before you can let legally. I'll coordinate quotes for remedial work and get it sorted - one less headache for you.
Can you arrange remedial work if needed?
Yes - if the EICR identifies faults that need fixing, I'll get quotes from the electrician and coordinate the repairs. You'll have one invoice for inspection and any remedial work, all sorted through me.
