EICR Certificates and Electrical Safety Services in Roehampton
Does your Roehampton property licence application or renewal need a current EICR? We inspect and test fixed electrics across SW15, email the coded report as a PDF and provide a written remedial quote if faults need correcting. This is for private landlords, letting and managing agents, HMO landlords and housing associations, alongside homeowners buying or selling, leaseholders, small businesses, shops and tenants checking their landlord's paperwork.
As an electrical safety company Roehampton landlords can use for a single flat or a whole portfolio, we give small bookings the same attention - including just one small shop. Managing properties towards Putney too? Explain the addresses and deadlines when arranging your inspection.
Landlord Electrical Safety Packages
For a rented flat in a purpose-built block, keeping the installation report and appliance records together makes tenancy administration easier. Our landlord electrical safety package combines the EICR, including mains-wired smoke alarm circuits within the fixed installation, with PAT testing for supplied appliances. We schedule those checks together and provide the corresponding tenancy documentation.
The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 require private rental installations to be inspected at least every five years. Plan the package around that renewal date, allowing for any shorter interval specified in your existing report. If remedial work is required, the usual deadline is 28 days, or sooner where the report requires it; written completion confirmation then goes to tenants and the council.
EICR Certificates for Landlords and Homeowners
Buying a converted flat with an uncertain wiring history? An electrical installation condition report gives you evidence about the installation rather than assumptions based on freshly fitted sockets. A qualified, insured electrician inspects and tests against BS 7671, recording the condition and any observations that need attention.
You'll receive a satisfactory assessment where the findings support it, or an unsatisfactory report with codes explaining the necessary action. It's a condition report, not a pass certificate bought in advance. Arrange testing before a sale decision, rental renewal or commercial paperwork deadline, with access agreed beforehand. We explain the findings and separate the inspection charge from any proposed repairs, so you can assess the next step properly.
Failed EICR? Remedial Work for C1, C2 and FI Codes
An unsatisfactory result on an older council flat needs a clear repair plan, not a vague instruction to replace everything. Our EICR remedial work starts with the observations: C1 means danger is present and needs immediate action; C2 identifies something potentially dangerous; FI requires further investigation to establish what's wrong.
We explain which repairs follow from those findings and supply a free, no-obligation written quotation. Missing RCD protection may require correction, but the circuit's condition and circumstances determine the appropriate work. Arrange the corrections within the report's stated deadline. After repairs, we retest the affected installation and provide the resulting documentation; a satisfactory reissued report depends on resolving all findings that prevent that outcome.
Consumer Unit Upgrades
An ageing fuse box doesn't tell the whole story by itself. Before recommending a consumer unit upgrade, we test the existing circuits and establish whether replacement is needed. A modern RCD/RCBO board adds protection against relevant electrical faults, but won't repair damaged wiring elsewhere. Book when inspection findings identify inadequate protection; you'll receive an upgrade quotation explaining the proposed board and associated corrections.
HMO and Property Licence EICRs
If mandatory HMO licensing, an additional scheme or selective licensing applies, arrange your property licence EICR before submitting or renewing the application. We check the licence's electrical safety condition, test the installation and issue a coded assessment for your council submission. Anything requiring correction is set out in writing with a separate remedial quotation, helping you understand what's outstanding before the deadline.
Commercial EICR and Fixed-Wire Testing
For shops, offices, restaurants and schools, commercial fixed-wire testing provides evidence supporting your duties under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. We agree access around trading hours, inspect the fixed electrics and document findings for the duty-holder. Arrange testing against your premises' inspection schedule or an insurer's request; intervals depend on use and risk, so a domestic renewal cycle shouldn't simply be copied across.
We also provide PAT testing, FI investigations and fault finding, rewiring, RCD and RCBO protection upgrades and earthing and bonding upgrades.

Based on the area's documented building stock
Electrical Safety Problems We Sort Out in Roehampton
Burning Smells and Scorched Sockets
Burning smell from a plug socket, or a socket scorched brown? A loose connection may be overheating; an overloaded adaptor or faulty appliance can also be responsible. Treat it as a live fire risk and isolate the circuit immediately if safe. Anything smoking or alight means 999 first; burning smells and scorching need urgent professional assessment.
Whole-Property Power Loss
No electricity in the whole house, while neighbouring homes still have power? A tripped RCD may indicate an internal fault, although the network supply or its cutout fuse could be responsible. Once supply-side trouble is ruled out, a main switch that won't stay on needs urgent attention. Arrange investigation of complete property power loss, rather than repeatedly resetting it.
Tenancy and Licence EICR Deadlines
Need a landlord electrical safety certificate Roehampton letting agents can file for a tenancy? An approaching inspection renewal or licence requirement often explains the request, including portfolios extending into Wandsworth. Plan EICR testing backwards from your deadline, leaving space for the 28-day remedial window. Start by arranging the landlord report your tenancy needs.
Old Wiring and Rewire Decisions
Does your house need rewiring after a surveyor's warning? Older rubber insulation or partial replacements may leave circuits needing attention, but age alone isn't a diagnosis. Inspection against BS 7671 helps establish the scope. If deterioration presents danger, affected circuits need urgent isolation or repair while you plan whether rewiring is necessary.
Where Does Your Roehampton Installation Stand?
Book an inspection to establish what your property's electrics need before a tenancy or licence deadline starts dictating your decisions. For rental homes here or towards Putney, EICR testing gives you recorded findings, explained codes and a practical basis for deciding what happens next. If repairs are needed, we'll follow with a clear written quotation so you can consider the scope before authorising work.

Local knowledge
Landlord Electrical Safety Rules and Housing Stock in Roehampton
Council and Housing-Association Homes
Alton Estate's 1950s council stock includes listed modernist blocks, where electrical alterations need careful handling and communal supplies must be distinguished from individual homes. The live social-sector duty covers all existing social tenancies from 1 May 2026, bringing a mandatory five-year inspection cycle; privately let ex-right-to-buy flats have their own landlord obligations. Across older London housing, we've found that testing matters more than the apparent age of a board: upgrade decisions need evidence against BS 7671, not an estate-wide assumption about defects.
Rented Conversions, HMOs and Period Houses
For a landlord EICR Roehampton agents can assess properly, the letting arrangement and applicable licence conditions matter as much as the address. Wandsworth's borough-wide additional HMO scheme runs from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2030, covering most shared homes occupied by three or four people; mandatory HMO licensing also remains live. Student and young-professional rentals around the campus create recurring EICR testing demand, while selective licensing in neighbouring Putney applies to designated wards rather than automatically extending into Roehampton. Confirm the address with the council and allow time to correct any C1, C2 or FI findings before relying on the paperwork for an application.
New-Build and Regeneration Schemes
Lennox Estate infill on Arabella Drive remains a pipeline proposal: if delivered, both blocks would enter the social electrical duty from first tenancy, while existing sheltered and general housing already follows the live cycle. Alton renewal delivery is also forthcoming, with new-installation certification needed at handover. Proposed replacement homes don't remove the need to maintain and inspect occupied stock now.
Shops, Offices and Other Commercial Premises
Queen Mary's Hospital on Roehampton Lane is substantial non-domestic stock requiring planned fixed-wire inspections; the University of Roehampton combines teaching premises with campus halls across four colleges. Those halls need installation checks and appliance testing, while teaching buildings carry workplace electrical duties. For your own shop or office, the practical lesson is to agree the inspection scope and access arrangements before scheduling, rather than treating every occupied building as an ordinary rented flat.

EICR Testing Across Roehampton and Nearby Areas
Arrange an EICR in Roehampton for your home, rental property or business, with nearby coverage extending to Balham. If you manage addresses in Battersea as well, identify each premises when planning the bookings so access and paperwork stay tied to the correct property. Dense rental stock makes tenant coordination useful; a shop needs its trading arrangements considered too. Our approach to landlord electrical safety starts with knowing what needs inspecting, who can provide entry and which deadline matters. You don't need several properties to arrange testing. Have any previous reports ready, along with details of shared supplies or alterations you're aware of: clear information helps define the job before attendance, and avoids treating different installations as interchangeable.
EICR Questions from Roehampton Landlords and Homeowners
Which licensing scheme matters when booking a Roehampton rental inspection?
Wandsworth's additional HMO licensing operates borough-wide, alongside mandatory HMO licensing. Selective licensing covers specified wards instead: East Putney and West Putney are included, but Roehampton isn't listed in either designation. For agents managing rentals here, that distinction matters when deciding which licence documents to prepare. Don't assume a nearby property's requirements apply to yours. Providing your licence conditions before booking lets us check the electrical evidence your application actually needs.
What parking restrictions could affect an EICR visit in Roehampton?
Wandsworth offers trade permits for visiting tradespeople working within controlled parking zones, where restriction hours vary by zone. Virtual permits require online registration and proof of work for each job; paper scratchcards are another option. A permit applies only to its allocated CPZ and excludes business bays and pay-and-display-only spaces. Bay suspensions require at least seven clear working days' notice. Checking those controls early helps you choose a workable inspection date.
I'm a council tenant in Roehampton — should I arrange my own electrical check?
Your landlord arranges it. Under its Housing Standard, Wandsworth Council provides an EICR when you move in and requests entry for electrical checks on a five-year cycle. Housing associations also carry the current social-landlord electrical duty, including installation inspections, appliance checks for equipment they supply, and required repairs.
You shouldn't have to organise a separate private booking to replace that responsibility. Responding to the landlord's access request helps keep your check on schedule.
Do you accept small EICR jobs, including a check before selling?
Yes - we book an individual rented flat, a small shop or your own home just as we would a portfolio. You don't need multiple addresses.
If you're selling, testing can clarify the wiring's condition before paperwork questions hold up decisions. A DIY look at sockets can't replace a competent electrician's inspection and measurements against BS 7671. Explaining what you need checked at booking helps establish the right scope from the start.
How much will EICR testing cost, how long will it take, and what do I receive?
EICR testing has a fixed charge agreed before attendance; duration depends on the installation and access. Searching for "EICR certificate Roehampton"? You'll receive inspection and test findings with coded observations, so you can understand the result. Any necessary corrections receive their own written quotation, provided without charge or obligation. Repairs aren't included in the testing price.
Discussing the premises beforehand helps clarify expected disruption and gives you a fair basis for comparing inspection offers.
