Qualified Electricians · All London Boroughs

EICR Testing London —
All Boroughs Covered

Renova's qualified electricians carry out Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) for commercial offices, retail units and managed buildings across all 33 London boroughs. Prompt turnaround, out-of-hours inspections available — and in-house remedials so you don't need a second contractor.

London commercial properties face tighter compliance timelines — insurer pressure, change-of-tenancy obligations, and City-specific building management protocols mean electrical certificates need to be in place fast. We cover the whole of Greater London with no travel premium.

🏙️
City & Managed Buildings

Certificate required for insurer, auditor or building manager

City of London and Canary Wharf buildings are frequently subject to insurer mandates and building management compliance reviews. We provide EICR certificates that meet the documentation requirements of most London property managers — and coordinate access procedures in advance.

🏢
Multi-Tenanted Block

Managing a portfolio of units across a London building

Landlords and managing agents with multiple tenanted units need rolling EICR programmes. We schedule inspections around individual tenant access windows, consolidate reporting across your portfolio, and handle all C1 and C2 remedials in-house — one contractor, one programme.

Out-of-Hours Required

Building occupied all day — evening or weekend inspection needed

Many London commercial buildings cannot accommodate electrical testing during business hours without disrupting occupants. We offer evening and weekend inspections across Greater London — no extra complexity, same qualified team, same prompt certificate.

What is an EICR?

Your electrical installation,
formally inspected & certified

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a formal inspection and test of the fixed electrical installation in a building — covering wiring, sockets, circuits, consumer units and earthing arrangements. For London landlords it is a legal requirement every five years. For commercial businesses it is essential for insurance compliance, health & safety obligations and due diligence. A qualified electrician tests every circuit, documents every observation, and issues a certificate confirming whether the installation is satisfactory or requires remedial work.

⚖️
Legal Compliance

London landlords are legally required to hold a valid EICR for every rental property. Commercial businesses need one for health & safety compliance, insurance and regulatory due diligence.

🔥
Reduce Fire Risk

Electrical faults are among the leading causes of commercial fires — particularly in older London stock. An EICR identifies deterioration and defects before they become a fire safety hazard.

🛡️
Insurance & Due Diligence

London insurers and building managers increasingly require current EICR certificates before approving renewals or releasing deposits. A valid certificate protects against liability and satisfies most policy requirements.

📄
Clear Documentation

A formal, traceable record for your property file — ready to present to any London insurer, building manager, regulator or incoming tenant at a moment's notice.

Legally required every five years or at the start of a new tenancy. A missing or expired EICR can trigger enforcement action or invalidate your insurance — we keep your portfolio current.

We are CHAS accredited and regularly work with NHS trusts and public sector organisations in London. We understand specific procurement frameworks, DBS requirements and the documentation standards expected.

🌙
Out-of-Hours & Restricted Access

Understanding Your Report

EICR Observation
Classifications Explained

Any observations identified during the inspection are classified by severity. Here's what each code means and what action is required — in plain English.

C1 — Danger Present

Immediate Action Required

A C1 observation indicates a condition that presents an immediate risk of injury. Remedial works must be carried out before the installation can be used safely. Our London-based team can attend urgently to resolve C1 issues.

C2 — Potentially Dangerous

Urgent Remedial Work Needed

A C2 observation means the installation is potentially dangerous. The certificate will not be satisfactory until C2 observations are resolved. We carry out all C2 remedials in-house and re-inspect to confirm compliance.

C3 — Improvement Recommended

Improvement Recommended

A C3 observation does not prevent a satisfactory certificate, but it indicates the installation does not fully comply with current regulations. We can advise on prioritising improvements to bring the installation up to standard.

Our qualified electricians carry out all C1 and C2 remedial works in-house — meaning you won't need to source a separate London electrician or coordinate a second visit to achieve a satisfactory certificate.

Indicative Costs

How much does an EICR
cost in London?

EICR cost is driven by the number of circuits in the building — not the London postcode. We do not apply a London travel premium within Greater London. The ranges below are guides; we provide a fixed, itemised quote before any work starts.

Property / building type Circuits (approx) EICR guide cost Typical timing
Small London office or studio unit Up to 10 £150 – £300 2–3 hours
Medium commercial office (1–2 floors) 10 – 20 £300 – £500 Half day
Large office / multi-floor building 20 – 40 £500 – £900 Full day
Large commercial / complex installation 40+ £900 – £1,500+ 1–2 days
PAT testing (add-on) — From £1.50/item By volume
Emergency lighting inspection (add-on) — From £150 1–2 hours
No London travel premium within Greater London. C1 and C2 remedial works are quoted separately after the inspection report is issued — you see exactly what needs doing and at what cost before anything is agreed. Unlike testing-only providers, we carry out all remedials in-house.
How It Works

The London EICR Inspection
Process Step by Step

Tell us your building type, London postcode, approximate circuits and any access requirements (out-of-hours, security passes, building induction). We'll confirm availability and provide a fixed quote — usually same day.

02

Access & Inspection

Our qualified electrician attends at the agreed time — including evenings and weekends. For City or managed buildings, we coordinate access procedures with building management in advance so the visit goes smoothly.

Every circuit is tested for continuity, insulation resistance, polarity and earth fault loop impedance. All findings are recorded, classified and documented against current safety standards (BS 7671).

04

Certificate & Remedials

Your EICR certificate is issued promptly. If remedial works are required, we provide a costed schedule and carry out all C1 and C2 works in-house — one contractor, no coordination overhead, compliant certificate.

Do you cover all London boroughs for EICR inspections? ▼
Yes — we cover all 33 London boroughs as standard.

We do not apply a travel premium within Greater London.
Can you carry out EICR inspections out of hours in London? ▼
Yes. Many London commercial buildings cannot accommodate electrical testing during office hours without disrupting occupants. We offer evening and weekend inspections across Greater London — the same qualified team, the same thorough process, and the same promptly issued certificate.
We manage a multi-tenanted building in London — can you run the EICR programme? ▼
Yes. We regularly work with managing agents and landlords running rolling EICR programmes across multi-tenanted London buildings. We schedule inspections around individual tenant access windows, coordinate with building management, and provide consolidated reporting — so you have a single point of contact for the entire programme.
How quickly can you book an EICR in London? ▼
Contact us with your building details and preferred timeframe and we will confirm availability. For urgent requirements — an incoming tenant deadline, an insurer flag, or a building management audit — call us directly on 020 3393 9600 and we will confirm the fastest available slot.
Do your electricians meet City of London and Canary Wharf access requirements? ▼
Yes. Our team are experienced working in central London commercial buildings with access management systems, security passes and building-specific induction requirements. We coordinate with building managers in advance, arrive fully briefed, and provide all required documentation and method statements before attending site.
Can you combine a London EICR with other compliance work? ▼
Yes. EICR inspections pair naturally with fire door inspections, PAT testing and emergency lighting checks. Combining these into a single visit reduces access disruption for your occupants and lowers overall compliance cost. We can also schedule electrical testing alongside LED upgrade work for a single electrical mobilisation across your London building.
