There has probably already been many questions on this so I apologise for yet another!
I have an EICR which is about 3 years old and my current tenants moved in about 15 months ago, prior to having to provide a new EICR to new tenants I think.
Is this EICR still valid or will...25-02-2021, 20:53 PM -

Reply to EICR QuestionHum, get a cheaper EICR, you are almost guaranteed that it will identify more C2’s , which cost more to put right, but aren’t actually needed
EICRs are like gas checks, get them done properly, keep your tenants safe
and if the inspector says it needs retesting in 3 years,...26-02-2021, 21:43 PM -
Reply to eicrWhat were the C2’s on the other sites?
if the muppet is saying your house doesn’t meet the 18th edition he’s a fool. Yes inspect to the 18th edition BUT non compliance’s to earlier versions are generally a C3
can you list the specific C2’s as they are stated on the EICR?26-02-2021, 21:16 PM -
I am currently refurbishing a property which is to be fully rewired.
is the electrician allowed to issue a EICR . ? as he is effectively checking his own work,
or does this have to be certified by an independent qualified electrician. ?
thanks...26-02-2021, 12:58 PM
