Landlord EICR and Electrical Compliance Services
Keeping You Compliant. Keeping Your Tenants Safe.
As a landlord, you're legally responsible for ensuring that the electrical installations in your properties are safe, up to standard, and regularly inspected. Since June 2020, the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) require landlords to have all fixed electrical systems tested at least every five years by a qualified and competent professional.
At Future Wiring, we specialise in supporting landlords across Walthamstow and East London with a fast, reliable landlord EICR service - ensuring your properties are safe, compliant, and protected from penalties.
What the Law Requires
You must:
- Ensure your properties meet the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (BS 7671)
- Have installations inspected and tested at least every 5 years, or sooner if the previous report says so
- Provide a copy of the report (EICR) to existing tenants (within 28 days), new tenants (before they move in), and local authorities (within 7 days upon request)
- Complete any remedial work within 28 days (or sooner if the report specifies)
- Provide written confirmation that the work is complete
Non-compliance can result in fines up to £30,000.

Why It Matters

Your Landlord EICR Made Simple
When we carry out your landlord EICR, we'll inspect:
- Fixed wiring
- Consumer units (fuse boxes)
- Socket outlets and light fittings
- Hardwired equipment (e.g. showers, extractors)
We'll classify any issues clearly and explain next steps:
- C1 (Danger Present) – Immediate action required
- C2 (Potential Danger) – Remedial work needed
- FI (Further Investigation) – Further testing required
- C3 (Improvement Recommended) – Not mandatory, but good practice
HMO-Specific Support
If you own or manage a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO), your properties must meet additional standards. We ensure:
- Full HMO electrical compliance
