Industry change · October 2026
From 1 October 2026 the Electrotechnical Assessment Specification moves from firm-level to individual competence. Every electrician carrying out periodic inspection and testing must meet three requirements.
If you are a landlord or agent, check that whoever tests your properties meets them. A report from an unqualified inspector may not stand up if it is ever questioned.

Checkatrade reviews
Verified reviews of the same electricians who carry out your EICR, from jobs across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire.
Jack and Ryan were really polite and helpful. Provided a detailed report and quote and took the time to make sure we really understood all the information they gave us and answered all our questions. They carried out the work quickly and to a high standard. They worked incredibly hard to meet our deadline and we wouldn’t hesitate to use the company again.
Work was great, couldn’t do enough for me, very polite and stayed until the job was complete I would 100% use again
We had to have a rewire at very short notice, and they managed to squeeze us in. Ryan, Jack, Connor and Justin did a sterling job. All our requests were fulfilled and they worked very hard, throwing manpower at the job, they even worked out of hours without a grumble. The end price was also very reasonable. We also used them for the electric installation of a new kitchen. Again, they threw manpower at the job and came up with some very valid suggestions. We will definitely use them again for other electrical work.
Work completed promptly and efficiently. Job detail was explained well. I will contact again for jobs in the near future. Will recommend highly to others.
The team who carried out the full rewire of our property were very professional. They ensured the work was completed to time and kept us fully informed of their progress.

FAQ

An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a formal inspection and test of a property's fixed wiring, consumer unit, sockets, switches and fittings. It records anything that is damaged, deteriorated or no longer meets the current standard, BS 7671.
Private landlords in England must have the installation tested at least every five years and give a copy to tenants. For owner-occupied homes, every ten years is recommended, and on buying or selling. Commercial premises are usually every five years.
C1 is danger present and is made safe on the spot. C2 is potentially dangerous and needs fixing. C3 is an improvement recommended. FI means further investigation is needed. Any C1, C2 or FI makes the report unsatisfactory.
Most houses and flats take a few hours. Power is switched off for parts of the test, so we agree timings with you or your tenants in advance.
We give you a fixed-price quote for the remedial work. Once it is done we issue confirmation so you can show the property is now satisfactory.
