Questions
What is an EICR test?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) assesses the safety of a property's fixed wiring. We identify hazards and ensure compliance with safety regulations for landlords and homeowners.
Why do landlords need electrical certificates?
Landlords must legally ensure electrical safety under the Private Rented Sector Regulations. We provide certified reports to verify compliance and protect tenants from hazards.
Do you offer emergency electrical services?
Yes, we provide out-of-hours support for urgent electrical issues. Contact us directly for immediate assistance with safety-critical problems.
How long does testing take?
Most domestic inspections complete within 3-4 hours depending on property size. We minimise disruption and provide reports within 24 hours of the inspection.
What areas do you cover?
We operate across Devon, Cornwall, and the Southwest. Regular clients include Plymouth, Exeter, and surrounding regions for residential and commercial electrical services.
