An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a thorough inspection of your property’s wiring, circuits, consumer unit, sockets, and switches. It identifies faults, rates their severity, and gives you a clear picture of whether your electrics are safe or need attention. For landlords, an EICR is a legal requirement before letting a property and every five years thereafter. For homeowners and buyers, it provides valuable peace of mind.
We carry out EICRs across Ipswich for landlords, homeowners, property buyers, and commercial premises. Our inspections are thorough, our reports are clear, and where faults are found we provide honest advice and fair pricing for any remedial work needed. Every inspection is carried out by a qualified electrician and the report is issued promptly so you’re never left waiting.
Whether you need a single certificate for a rental property or inspections across a portfolio, we deliver a reliable, professional service. Contact us to book an EICR at your Ipswich property.
Since June 2020, landlords in England must hold a valid EICR for every rental property, issued before new tenants move in and renewed every five years. Failure to comply can result in fines of up to £30,000 and difficulties with insurance claims and mortgage conditions. We carry out landlord EICRs across Ipswich, providing a fast turnaround so your property remains compliant without unnecessary void periods. If the inspection identifies faults classified as C1 or C2, we provide a clear quote for remedial work and can often complete repairs the same week. We also offer portfolio rates for landlords and letting agents managing multiple Ipswich properties.
Even without a legal obligation, an EICR gives homeowners valuable insight into the condition of their electrical installation. It is recommended that owner-occupied properties are inspected every ten years, or sooner if your home has older wiring or you’ve noticed signs of electrical faults. The report highlights anything that falls below current standards and grades each observation so you can prioritise what needs addressing. Many Ipswich homeowners arrange an EICR after purchasing an older property, before starting renovation work, or simply for peace of mind that their family’s home is electrically safe. We explain every finding clearly and never pressure unnecessary work.
If you’re purchasing a property in Ipswich, an EICR before completion gives you a clear understanding of the electrical condition and potential costs you may face. Surveyors often flag electrics as a concern in older homes but can’t assess the detail. An EICR fills that gap, identifying whether the property needs a full rewire, a consumer unit upgrade, minor remedial work, or nothing at all. The report gives you hard evidence to negotiate the purchase price if significant electrical work is needed. We offer a fast booking service for homebuyers working to exchange deadlines, with reports typically issued within 48 hours of inspection.
Businesses have a duty to ensure their electrical installations are safe for employees, customers, and visitors. Commercial EICRs are recommended every five years and may be required by your insurer or lease conditions. We inspect offices, retail units, workshops, restaurants, and other commercial premises across Ipswich, working outside business hours where needed to avoid disruption to your operations. Commercial inspections cover all fixed wiring, distribution boards, circuits, and protective devices. We issue your report promptly and provide clear pricing for any remedial work identified, helping you maintain compliance with health and safety obligations and insurance requirements.
An EICR is only as good as the electrician carrying it out. We are fully qualified and registered with a competent person scheme, ensuring every inspection is thorough, every report is accurate, and every certificate is accepted by councils, letting agents, insurers, and solicitors without question. We don’t rush inspections and we don’t inflate findings to generate unnecessary remedial work.
Our pricing is clear and competitive. You know the cost before we arrive, with no hidden charges. Reports are issued promptly, and where faults are found we provide an honest explanation and a fair quote for repairs. We never pressure work that isn’t genuinely needed.
We carry out EICRs throughout Ipswich and the surrounding area, covering the town centre, Whitton, Chantry, Castle Hill, Sprites, Gainsborough, Rushmere St Andrew, Kesgrave, Martlesham, Woodbridge, Felixstowe, Stowmarket, Needham Market, and surrounding Suffolk villages.
Older properties often have wiring systems that are no longer suitable for modern electrical use. Rewiring replaces outdated wiring, improving safety, reliability and capacity.
We carry out full and partial rewires, carefully planned to minimise disruption. This includes new cabling, updated sockets and switches, and ensuring all work meets current standards.
A properly rewired home provides peace of mind and supports modern electrical demands.
