South Electrical Solutions offers EICR services across the South East of England.
Electrical installations play a crucial role in maintaining safety standards. Faults in components like the fuse board, switches, or sockets can lead to electric shocks or fires, posing risks to occupants and causing harm and property damage.
Disturbingly, a report by Electric Safety First reveals that 20,000 homes in the UK are affected by electricity fires annually. These fires are primarily caused by faulty electrical products (89%), including wiring issues (11%). The majority of these incidents could be prevented through regular inspection and maintenance of electrical systems.
For landlords, ensuring tenant safety throughout their tenancy is paramount. This responsibility extends to guaranteeing the secure installation and proper functioning of electrical appliances, wiring, and fuse boxes.
While visual inspections can help detect some electrical issues, certain cables and wires are concealed and may be missed by unqualified electricians. That's why it is necessary to have a qualified electrician examine your property and provide an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR). This report serves as proof that your property adheres to stringent safety standards, offering peace of mind to all occupants.
Our EICR prices are based of the quantity of circuits you have. Our Price List can be found on our Testing Price page.
