Electrical Safety Reports (EICR)
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a structured inspection of everything electrical in a property, from the consumer unit to the furthest socket. It tells you what's safe, what needs attention and what can wait, with every observation coded and explained.
Landlords in Scotland must have a satisfactory EICR carried out at least every five years under the Repairing Standard, and homebuyers use them to avoid expensive surprises. Whatever the reason, you get the formal report plus a plain-English summary. If anything needs putting right, we quote it as a clear fixed price and certify the remedial work.

Safety reports questions, answered
How much does an EICR cost?
A domestic EICR in Wishaw or the wider Lanarkshire area broadly costs in the region of £150 to £300, depending on the size of the property and the number of circuits. Landlord and multi-property rates are agreed up front, with a clear fixed price before we book you in.
How often should I have an EICR?
Rented homes in Scotland need one at least every five years under the Repairing Standard. For your own home, every ten years is the usual guide, sooner for older installations and when buying or selling.
What happens if the report is unsatisfactory?
It just means one or more items need attention. We explain exactly what they are in plain English and give you a fixed price to put them right.
How long does an EICR take?
Two to four hours for most homes, depending on size and the number of circuits. We work cleanly and put everything back exactly as we found it.
