An EICR certificate is a legal requirement for every East London landlord renting out residential property. Under the Electrical Safety Standards (Private Rented Sector) Regulations 2020, a valid Electrical Installation Condition Report must be obtained before a tenancy begins and renewed every five years. The penalty for failing to comply reaches up to £30,000 per property. EICR Landlord Cert carries out full EICR testing across East London from just £85, with a fixed price confirmed before your inspection is booked.
Every electrician on our team is NICEIC approved and works to BS 7671 wiring regulations. All engineers are DBS checked, and we carry full public liability insurance on every job we attend. We offer same-day inspections Monday to Friday for properties in the area, helping you meet your legal obligations without unnecessary delays. Your EICR report is issued once the inspection is complete.
An electrical safety certificate is the formal document produced after a satisfactory EICR inspection at your rental property. This certificate confirms that the fixed wiring, consumer unit, circuits, sockets, and earthing arrangements all meet the current requirements of BS 7671. For landlords in the private rented sector, holding this certificate is a legal obligation under the 2020 regulations.
During the inspection, our qualified electrician performs both visual checks and electrical tests on every circuit in the property. The process covers insulation resistance testing, polarity verification, earthing checks, and RCD testing. We inspect the consumer unit, distribution board, and all permanently connected equipment. Any defects, faults, or hazards identified during the EICR test are recorded using the standard observation codes: C1 for immediate danger, C2 for potentially dangerous, and C3 for improvement recommended.
Many properties in the area have older electrical installations that have been modified over the years. A periodic electrical inspection identifies problems such as deterioration, overloaded circuits, and outdated wiring before they put tenants at risk. Your certificate is issued once the inspection is complete.
EICR testing covers every part of the electrical installation at your property to confirm safe operation and regulatory compliance.
All EICR testing follows BS 7671 wiring regulations, and results are recorded on your electrical installation condition report.
An EICR inspection provides East London landlords with a detailed assessment of whether the electrics at their property are safe and compliant for tenants.
A satisfactory result means your EICR certificate is valid for five years unless a shorter inspection interval is recommended.
EICR Landlord Cert provides EICR certificates across East London from £85 at a fixed price with no call-out charges. The cost of your EICR report depends on the property size and the number of circuits, but we confirm the exact price before booking your inspection. There are no hidden extras and no surprise fees once the work is done.
For a standard one or two bedroom flat in the area, most landlords pay between £85 and £130. Larger properties, HMOs, and buildings with more circuits cost more, but our pricing stays competitive. We believe landlords deserve transparent EICR pricing, not vague estimates that change when the electrician arrives.
We also provide Gas Safety certificates, EPC certificates, and PAT testing for East London landlords. Bundling your compliance services in a single booking reduces overall costs and cuts down on separate appointments at the property.
Every East London landlord with a tenanted property is legally required to hold a valid EICR under the 2020 regulations.

The Electrical Installation Condition Report is the official technical document produced during an EICR inspection. For East London landlords, this report serves as legal proof that the electrical installation at your property meets the requirements of BS 7671 and the Electrical Safety Standards Regulations 2020. Without a valid report, you cannot legally let the property.
Your report lists every circuit tested, the results of each test, and any observations using the C1, C2, C3, and FI coding system. A satisfactory overall result means no further action is required until the next scheduled inspection. An unsatisfactory result due to C1 or C2 observations means you must arrange remedial works within 28 days and have the affected circuits retested.

An EICR is an Electrical Installation Condition Report that records the safety condition of the fixed wiring in a rental property. The Electrical Safety Standards (Private Rented Sector) Regulations 2020 require every East London landlord to hold a valid EICR for each tenanted property. Without one, you risk fines of up to £30,000, and your local authority can arrange the inspection at your expense.
An EICR in East London costs from £85 with EICR Landlord Cert. The exact price depends on the number of circuits and property size, which we confirm before booking. We offer a fixed price with no hidden fees or call-out charges. Most one or two bedroom flats fall within the £85 to £130 range, with larger properties priced according to circuit count.
East London landlords must obtain an EICR at least every five years, or sooner if the previous report recommends an earlier inspection date. The 2020 regulations require a valid report to be in place before a new tenancy begins. Keeping your EICR up to date protects you from financial penalties and keeps your tenants safe from electrical hazards.
An EICR checks all fixed wiring, circuits, sockets, switches, the consumer unit, earthing, and bonding at the property. The electrician carries out visual inspection; dead testing, including insulation resistance and continuity checks; and live testing, including RCD trip times. All results are recorded against BS 7671 standards using C1, C2, C3, and FI observation codes.
A standard EICR for a flat typically takes between two and four hours to complete. Properties with more circuits or complex installations may take longer. Our electricians work efficiently without cutting corners, and we complete most domestic inspections within half a day. Same-day inspection slots are available Monday to Friday for landlords.
If an East London landlord does not hold a valid EICR, the local authority can issue a remedial notice requiring the inspection within 28 days. Failure to comply with this notice can lead to a financial penalty of up to £30,000. The council may also arrange the inspection directly and recover the full cost from the landlord.
C1 means danger is present and requires immediate action from the landlord. C2 means potentially dangerous and must be fixed within 28 days through remedial works. C3 means improvement is recommended but is not a mandatory requirement. FI means further investigation is needed. Only C1 and C2 codes lead to a failed EICR result, and these must be addressed for the property to be compliant.
Yes, an EICR and an electrical safety certificate refer to the same inspection and document. EICR is the formal name for the Electrical Installation Condition Report carried out under BS 7671 wiring regulations. Landlords, letting agents, and local councils may use either term, but both refer to the same thing and confirm the property's electrics are safe for tenants.
No. The 2020 regulations require the EICR to be carried out by a qualified and competent person, which means a registered electrician with appropriate accreditation. Our engineers are NICEIC approved, DBS checked, and fully insured with public liability cover. Landlords cannot self-certify their own electrical installations, and using an unqualified person creates serious legal risks.
After a failed EICR, the landlord must arrange remedial works within 28 days to address all C1 and C2 observations in the report. The electrician then retests the affected circuits and issues a new satisfactory report. EICR Landlord Cert can handle both the repairs and retesting, often in a single visit, so you get a compliant certificate without unnecessary delays.
