Residential Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs)
At Lifetime Electrical Services LTD, we provide thorough and regulation compliant Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) for residential properties. Whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or prospective buyer, an EICR is essential for assessing the safety and integrity of your property’s electrical system, helping to identify faults, wear, or non compliance with current standards.
Electrical systems degrade over time. An up to date EICR not only protects your property and the people within it but also ensures you’re meeting legal and insurance requirements, especially in rental or high occupancy homes. In many cases, insurance providers may require a current EICR to validate a policy or process a claim following electrical related damage or incidents.
Our experienced electricians carry out detailed inspections and testing in accordance with BS 7671 – 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, giving you a clear, honest report with practical recommendations and images if remedial work is needed.
