EICR Inspections for Hazlemere Homes
Bringing a EICR up to current standards in Hazlemere usually means starting with the installation you have, not the one a brochure imagines.
Predominantly 1930s and post-war semis and detached homes, with newer infill towards Widmer End. Some are wired to a good standard already; others still carry decades-old fuse boards, buried junction boxes and cabling that predates modern accessory ranges. We'll walk it through with you, share the readings, and give you an option that's proportionate to the property — not the biggest quote we can write.
Based at 14 Kelly Road, High Wycombe HP11 1BW. Domestic only.

What we look at during the inspection
- 1
Book a slot
Most EICRs take 3–4 hours for a typical family home. We'll agree a start time that lets us finish in one visit.
- 2
Inspect and test
We open the consumer unit, sample accessories on each circuit, and record insulation, continuity and RCD readings.

Report
You receive a signed EICR by email with a schedule of test results and any C1, C2 or FI observations explained in plain English.
Questions we get asked most
- What if you find C1 or C2 issues?
- You'll get a full explanation, a written quote for remedials, and — for C1 — we make the fault safe on the day where practical.
- Is an EICR the same as a PAT test?
- No — an EICR covers the fixed installation. PAT covers plug-in appliances and isn't part of an EICR.
- How often should a home have one?
- Owner-occupied homes: at least every 10 years or on change of occupancy. Rented homes: every 5 years.
- Do you handle the remedial work as well?
- Yes, but you're free to use the report with any qualified electrician — the EICR is yours.
