What an EICR covers in London
The UK's largest private rented sector, with one of the highest landlord densities in Europe. Landlords letting property here must hold a valid EICR certificate before a new tenancy begins, and must renew it at least every 5 years.
Postcode areas typically covered include E, EC, N, NW, SE, SW, W, WC. Engineers may charge a small premium for properties inside congestion or low-emission zones where parking and travel times add cost.
A standard EICR inspection takes between two and four hours depending on the size and age of the property. The engineer visually inspects and tests every circuit, identifies any C1, C2 or FI codes that require remedial work, and issues a certificate confirming whether the installation is satisfactory or unsatisfactory. Unsatisfactory reports must be remediated within 28 days.
