Every landlord renting out property in Hackney must hold a valid EICR certificate before a tenancy begins. The Electrical Safety Standards (Private Rented Sector) Regulations 2020 require an electrical installation condition report for all privately rented homes, and failure to comply can result in penalties of up to £30,000. EICR Landlord Cert provides EICR inspections from just £85, giving you a fixed price with no hidden fees.
Our NICEIC-approved electricians are DBS checked and carry full public liability insurance. We offer same-day inspection availability Monday to Friday for landlords who need their electrical safety certificate quickly. Every EICR report is issued once the inspection is complete, and our team will walk you through any findings so you know where your property stands.
An electrical safety certificate confirms that the fixed wiring and electrical installation in your rental property meet BS 7671 requirements. This certificate is produced following a full electrical installation condition report, which examines the consumer unit, circuit breakers, sockets, switches, and earthing arrangements. Landlords need this certificate to prove their property’s electrics are safe for tenants.
The electrical safety check covers a visual inspection and a series of tests, including dead testing and live testing of circuits. Your electrician will check for faults, defects, and deterioration across the installation. Properties with outdated wiring or overloaded circuits will be flagged during the assessment.
If issues are found, you receive a detailed condition report outlining what remedial works are needed. Landlords are given 28 days to complete required repairs, and a follow-up inspection confirms the issues have been resolved.
An EICR inspection covers every part of your property’s fixed electrical installation from top to bottom.
Landlords receive a full periodic electrical inspection report once the inspection is complete, showing pass or fail results.
A landlord electrical certificate is the document you need to legally rent your property to tenants under current regulations.

An electrical installation condition report is the formal document produced after a full EICR inspection. This report records the condition of every part of the fixed wiring installation, from the incoming supply and meter to the fuse box, circuits, and switches. The report uses a coding system to classify any observations made during the periodic inspection.
A C1 code means immediate danger, while a C2 code indicates a potentially dangerous condition. A C3 code is an improvement recommendation that does not affect compliance but would improve safety. The periodic inspection report also includes an FI code for areas needing further investigation by the electrician.
Your report will clearly state whether the installation is satisfactory or unsatisfactory. If unsatisfactory, you have 28 days to arrange remedial works and a re-inspection to bring the electrical installation up to standard.

An EICR certificate is issued after an electrical installation condition report is completed on a property. It records whether the fixed wiring and electrics are satisfactory or unsatisfactory. The Electrical Safety Standards 2020 require every landlord to hold a valid EICR before renting to tenants.
Landlords must have an EICR at least once every five years, or sooner if the previous report recommends an earlier date. A new EICR must be in place before a new tenancy begins. Failing to renew can result in local authority penalties.

EICR stands for Electrical Installation Condition Report. It is the formal inspection process used to assess fixed electrical installations in residential and commercial properties. Landlords sometimes refer to it as an electrical safety certificate, periodic inspection report, or landlord electrical certificate.
A standard EICR inspection takes between two and four hours for a typical residential property. Larger properties with more circuits or older wiring may take longer to complete. Our electricians provide a time estimate when you book so you can plan around the visit.
Landlords without a valid EICR face fines of up to £30,000 under the 2020 regulations. The local authority can arrange the inspection and remedial works at the landlord's expense. Operating without an EICR puts tenants at risk.
C1 means danger is present, requiring immediate action. C2 means a potentially dangerous condition needing urgent attention. C3 is an improvement recommendation that does not affect compliance. All C1 and C2 codes must be resolved within 28 days.
Yes, an EICR and an electrical safety certificate refer to the same inspection and document. EICR is the formal industry name, while electrical safety certificate is the term commonly used by landlords and letting agents. You need this certificate to comply with the 2020 regulations.
An EICR is valid for five years from the date of inspection, unless the electrician recommends an earlier re-inspection based on the condition of the installation. Landlords must renew before expiry to maintain compliance. Setting a reminder well in advance helps avoid any gap in coverage.
Your report lists all faults identified using C1 and C2 codes, with descriptions of each issue. You have 28 days to arrange remedial works, after which a follow-up inspection confirms the installation is now satisfactory. Our electricians can handle both the repairs and re-inspection for you.
