Welcome to TM Hughes & Son Electrical Services Ltd. We provide Landlords Electrical Inspections (EICRs) in Grays and the surrounding areas.

Why an EICR is Essential for Property Safety

An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) evaluates the safety of your electrical system. An Electrician will examine your wiring, sockets, and electrical components to identify potential faults or safety concerns. An EICR helps prevent electrical accidents such as shocks or fires and ensures your property meets the required safety standards.

When to Arrange an EICR

There are a few occasions when an EICR is necessary. If you’re buying a new property, an inspection verifies the electrical system is safe and free from hazards.  

  • For landlords, an EICR is a legal requirement every five years to ensure the safety of tenants.
  • Homeowners should consider having an EICR done at least once every ten years to ensure the safety of their electrical system.

Why Landlords Must Have an EICR Every Five Years

For landlords, an EICR is not just a good practice—it’s a legal necessity. The law requires that every rental property has an EICR every five years to ensure the electrical system is safe for tenants.

If an EICR report highlights any risks, landlords must take immediate action to rectify them. Following EICR rules keeps tenants safe and protects landlords from potential legal consequences of non-compliance.

Why Homeowners Should Invest in an EICR

Homeowners can benefit greatly from having an EICR. It ensures your electrical system is working safely and provides early detection of faults that could lead to more expensive repairs. Preventing electrical issues can save you money in the long run and, more importantly, protect your family from electrical hazards.

An EICR also reassures insurance companies, possibly reducing premiums by confirming that your property meets safety standards. Periodic inspections give you confidence that your electrical system is safe.

Understanding the Steps of an EICR Inspection

During an EICR inspection, a NICEIC registered Electrician will visually inspect the electrical system, looking for signs of wear, damage, or non-compliance with current regulations.

The Electrician will check everything from wiring and sockets to light fittings and Consumer Units. After the visual inspection, they will use testing equipment to check the circuits, ensuring they are safe and in good working order.

Following the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed report of any findings, including recommendations for necessary repairs or upgrades to pass your property.

A certificate is issued after the inspection, which you can show your tenants, letting agents and insurers know.
