EICR Edinburgh
Not sure what your legal responsibilities are when it comes to an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report)? Energize Electrical can help.
Are you a landlord or business owner?
Take the confusion out the requirements of an EICR in Edinburgh
EICR tests are a legal requirement for all business owners every 5 years. For landlords, EICRs are also a legal requirement but the guidance can be confusing. Edinburgh EICR testing must be carried out before every new tenancy, or at least every 5 years during an existing tenancy. If you have a number of properties, this can take a lot of your time. Energize Electrical are experienced and trusted electricians in Edinburgh who can conduct an EICR test for landlords as needed, making sure you have the reports you need to fulfil your legal obligations.
If you supply any movable electrical equipment in your units, you must also carry out PAT testing. This includes appliances like white goods such as fridges or washing machines, kitchen appliances, televisions, or any other electricals you supply to your tenants. We also offer PAT testing, so you have peace of mind that everything is sorted with as little faff as possible.

Are you a homeowner?
While it is not a legal requirement for homeowners to have an up-to-date EICR test, this may be required by your home insurance. Beyond that, it is also recommended that homeowners get an EICR test every 5-10 years to make sure everything is in proper working order.
You might be worried about how much disruption you have to deal with for EICR testing. Energize Electrical pride ourselves on being tidy and respectful of your home, minimising disruption wherever possible. We will carry out physical and visual inspections of all important wiring and sockets, letting you know what is up to standard and what needs improvement. If you need additional work done, we will help you arrange this at a time that suits you.

Both Neil and tradesman were timely and work carried out without fuss or issue.
The job was done professionally and executed as quoted for the job.
Definitely recommend
The job itself involved running cable now while I had floor access available, with the charger installation to follow at a later date. The team arrived on time, talked me through the approach, kept me informed as they worked, and were happy to answer questions along the way. The work was completed neatly, with good attention to detail, and they tidied up properly afterwards.
Overall, Energize were responsive, professional and easy to deal with. The personal touch and willingness to think through the best solution made the difference for me. I’d be very happy to use them again and recommend them to others.
