Need a Qualified Electrician for Your EICR?

If you’re a landlord, business owner, or homeowner in Wirral, it’s essential to ensure your property’s electrics are safe and compliant. That’s where an EICR certification comes in.

Our qualified and NICEIC-registered electricians provide professional EICR inspections across Wirral. Whether it’s for legal compliance, peace of mind, or insurance purposes,  we have got you covered.

What Is an EICR Certificate?

An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a formal document issued after a thorough inspection of a property’s electrical system. It checks the condition of your wiring, sockets, fuse boards, and overall electrical safety.

Once the inspection is complete, we will provide you with:

  • A full written report
  • Any observations or defects
  • A clear pass or fail outcome

We will also provide guidance on remedial works if needed, and a quote to carry these out on your behalf.

 Who Needs EICR Certification?

EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) certification is essential for a wide range of property owners and managers.

Landlords, in particular, are legally required to obtain an EICR for their rental properties to ensure that the electrical installations are safe for tenants. This requirement applies to both residential and commercial rental spaces and is part of maintaining compliance with current safety regulations in the UK.

Businesses and public institutions, such as schools, offices, and shops, also need EICR certification to meet health and safety standards. Insurance companies may require a valid EICR as part of their policy conditions.

Ultimately, anyone responsible for the maintenance or use of a building with electrical installations should consider an EICR not just as a legal necessity, but as a critical part of ensuring safety and compliance.

  • Landlords – Legal requirement every 5 years (or at start of new tenancy)
  • Homeowners – Ideal if you’re buying, selling, or renovating a property
  • Businesses – For insurance, safety compliance, and HSE obligations
  • Letting Agents & Estate Managers – Keeping portfolios compliant and protected

What’s Involved in an Electrical Inspection?

Getting an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) isn’t just about ticking a box, it’s about ensuring your property is safe, compliant, and up to standard. Here’s a breakdown of what the process involves:

1. Initial Consultation & Fixed Quote

It all starts when you reach out with your property details. Based on the size, type, and use of the building, I’ll provide a clear, fixed quote, no hidden fees or unexpected costs. This helps you know exactly what to expect from the outset.

2. On-Site Electrical Inspection

Next, we will visit your property and carry out a thorough inspection of all fixed wiring and electrical installations. This includes checking sockets, switches, fuse boards, and more, ensuring they’re installed correctly and haven’t deteriorated over time.

3. Comprehensive Testing & Reporting

Using calibrated and certified testing equipment, we test circuits, connections, and components to verify they’re functioning safely and efficiently. Any signs of wear, damage, or potential hazards are thoroughly documented.

4. EICR Certification Issued

Once the inspection and testing are complete, you’ll receive your official EICR. If everything meets the required safety standards, your certificate confirms the property is compliant, perfect for landlords, business owners, or peace of mind as a homeowner.

5. Remedial Work (If Needed)

If any issues are uncovered, don’t worry, we will provide a clear quote for any necessary remedial work, along with a realistic timeline to bring everything up to standard. Once resolved, we will reissue your EICR so you’re fully certified.
