(EICR)

All electrical installations degrade over time or can sustain damage. Fuse boards, switches, sockets, wiring and cables can deteriorate & electrical connections can become loose.

Faulty connections and old wiring are one of the main causes of electric shocks, electrical failures, over-heating and fires in the home.

You will receive an Electrical Installation Condition Report that details any electrical damage, deterioration, defects, dangerous conditions and non-compliances against the latest safety standards.

If anything dangerous or potentially hazardous is found, the overall condition of the electrical installation will be declared as ‘unsatisfactory’.
This means that remedial action is required to remove the risks to those in the premises.
In this instance we will provide you with a quote to carry out this remedial work.
