Throughout every London borough, Goldfinch Electrical Services is available to conduct professional electrical inspection reports (EICRs). Our qualified electrical inspectors can produce reports on your home’s wiring or ensure that your commercial premises are safe from the standpoint of their electrical installation. As repairers and installers, we can also provide you with a quotation for any remedial works that might be identified following your inspection.
Please note that EICRs should be produced at least once every ten years in your home or soon after you have moved in.

OUR PROFESSIONAL
Electrical Inspection Condition Reports
The main purpose of an EICR is to ensure that a property is safe from an electrical point of view. This will mean checking the distribution system as well as the wiring. We will also inspect your property’s power outlets and lighting system to ensure both are safe to use.
As NICEIC-accredited electrical installers, we are qualified to provide EICR reports and to file them appropriately on your behalf. Please note that we are fully up to date with the latest IET wiring regulations. Furthermore, we can help you with related inspections, so ask us about a ‘landlord safety test’ or a ‘homebuyer’s test’ if you think you need one.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need an EICR?
Your property’s electrics could be faulty without you necessarily knowing. A properly conducted EICR ensures the electrical wiring of a building is safe to use.
What if an EICR hasn't been conducted for a while?
If your home or business premises hasn’t had an EICR for as long as you can remember, then the time to book one is right now. Homeowners should allow no more than 10 years to pass between them.
What are signs that I might need an electrical inspection?
Yellowing power sockets, funny smells or even sparks being noticeable all mean you should call experts, like Goldfinch Electrical, without further delay.
What if an EICR finds defects?
You won’t achieve a satisfactory report if there are defects. Many can be dealt with relatively easily to ensure your property passes its inspection.
What if I don't have an EICR report conducted?
Without one, you are potentially laying yourself open to legal challenges, especially in workplaces or properties that you rent out.
Does the power need to go off during an EICR?
Yes, it will. We will try to keep the time you are without power to a minimum, however.
