What's involved
A full EICR to the Private Rented Sector regulations, a compliant certificate for your tenants or agent, plus any C1/C2 remedial work, PAT testing and smoke/CO alarm checks — with fast turnaround between tenancies.
- Since 1 April 2021 every rented home in England must have a satisfactory EICR at least every 5 years (or at change of tenancy), and you must give tenants a copy.
- Local councils can serve remedial notices and fine landlords up to £30,000 for non-compliance under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020.
- We also cover the smoke/CO alarm rules — at least one smoke alarm per storey and a CO alarm in any room with a fixed combustion appliance — and can look after whole portfolios with expiry reminders.

Landlord EICR & Certificates — FAQs
Is a landlord EICR a legal requirement?
Yes — since 1 April 2021 every rented home in England must have a satisfactory EICR at least every 5 years (or at change of tenancy), and you must give tenants a copy.
What happens if I don't have a valid EICR?
Local councils can serve remedial notices and fine landlords up to £30,000 for non-compliance, so a current certificate protects you as well as your tenants.
How quickly can you turn one around?
We can often inspect within 48 hours and issue the certificate the same day, which is ideal when you're re-letting a property between tenancies.
Do you carry out any remedial work found?
Yes — we quote and complete any C1 or C2 items and re-issue a Satisfactory report, so you have a single contractor from inspection to compliance.
Can you look after a whole portfolio?
Yes — portfolio landlords and letting agents get scheduled testing, reminders before certificates expire and one point of contact for every property.
