What is an Electrical Installation Condition Report?

An EICR is a formal and comprehensive assessment of your property's fixed electrical wiring. Think of it as an "MOT" for your home's electrics.

Its purpose is simple: to identify any potential defects, safety concerns, or non-compliance with the current British Standard for electrical safety (BS 7671). This keeps you, your family, or your tenants safe from hazards like fire and electric shock.

Who Needs an EICR in Scotland?

Landlords (A Legal Requirement)

Under The Housing (Scotland) Act, you are legally required to have an EICR performed by a qualified electrician at least once every five years. We provide the necessary certificates to keep you fully compliant.

Homebuyers

A standard home survey often misses underlying electrical issues. An EICR provides a clear picture of the system's health before you buy, saving you from thousands in unexpected repair costs.

Homeowners

For your own peace of mind, an EICR is the best way to ensure your family is safe. We recommend a check every 10 years, or when moving into a new property.

Understanding Your EICR Report Codes

C1

Danger Present

Indicates an immediate risk of injury. Immediate remedial action is required to make the installation safe.

C2

Potentially Dangerous

An urgent issue that could become a danger. Remedial action is required to remove the potential for injury.

C3

Improvement Recommended

The installation is not unsafe, but an improvement (e.g., updating to current standards) could enhance its safety.

FI

Further Investigation

We couldn't draw a conclusion on a specific part of the installation, and further investigation is needed to determine if it's safe.

An "Unsatisfactory" report will contain C1, C2, or FI codes. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote to carry out any necessary remedial work to bring your property up to a "Satisfactory" standard.
