Electrical Inspection Certificate ensures the safety of an electrical installation with a declaration that the new installation, alteration or addition is safe to use at the time it was put into service. Portable appliance testing (PAT Testing) otherwise know as electrical safety testing should be considered for all appliances.

This includes permanently fixed appliances like hand dryers Oven, Hobs and cookers. Trade Facilities Services, provides various types of electrical safety certificates.

Electrical Installation condition reports (EICR) are provided as an official document given after an assessment by a qualified engineer or electrician. The assessment is based on the quality of your electrical installation, the electrics and cables will deteriorate over time. An electrical installation condition report should be carried out regularly and in accordance with BS7671.
The Testing, Inspection and writing of reports for Electrical Installation Certificates for domestic properties are required for many different reasons. Trade Facilities services offer all the Electrical installation certificates and electrical test certificate; we also offer a special service for landlords electrical certificates.
Due to the electricity at works act; there comes a time when all offices require Compliance. This can sometimes be referred to as a "periodic inspection" or a "5 year electrical fixed wire test". The actual term for fixed wire testing is a "electrical installation condition report". The recommended time can also differ; this depends on the type of property.
Electrical Inspection Certificates ensure the safety of a property's electrical installation work with a declaration that the new installation, alteration or addition is safe to use at the time it was put into service. The issued EICR for your property depends on the extent and type of electrical installation work, inspection and testing, that you have carried out for the building.
There will a legal onus on all landlords to have a electrical installation condition report in place. They will have to be able to provide this to the tenant, managing agent or local authority within 30 days should they ask. In Scotland it has already been made law to provide EICR reports for tenants, this is to prove that property is safe.

Our lettings department have been using James and the team for our EICR requirements and have found them to be responsive, helpful and reasonably priced. We would recommend them to other agencies & private clients.

had an initial landlord electrical safety report noting need for new consumer board. They changed and then provided a new report as part of the service. All seems to be working well and they attended on time and were tidy.

Landlords AVOID AVOID. The company was contracted to do a EICR. After the inspection the electrician almost ran off explaining that he had to "check something" before providing an answer as to whether it had passed or not. I am paying for the expertise and don't expect the contractor to have to check the regulations. In reality, one unused circuit had to be disconnected and one had to be downgraded. This is 5 minutes simple work and I would have been happy to pay a small charge on the same day to do the work. It was blatent profiteering and a second visit cost me over 240GBP. In addition there

Did an EICR report for me. Quick, friendly and professional service at a good price. James and his team respond to emails really quickly which is such a breath of fresh air compared to other companies. Will use again!

Extremely unreliable. James left our premises with a problem so he could charge a return visit. When we followed up James shouted at us and claimed it is not his fault. Very unprofessional. We lost more than £120 as the work we paid for was never done.

James Livingstone was professional, helpful and efficient throughout. I contacted Trade Facilities to carry out an EICR report which they did and then assisted me in upgrading and repairing the electrics to standard. I highly recommend their service.

James did a EICR certificate for my flat. He was fantastic. Communicative during the booking process, was even a bit early for the appointment. He is incredibly knowledgeable about his craft and made the entire process very smooth and painless. Highly recommend!

I very rarely write reviews but the professionalism from Peter at Trade Facilities Services was second to none. I had an EICR test and inspection done on my property with no set backs at all. I was expecting things to come to more than the quote as a plug socket was damaged after I booked the test. Peter didn't even hesitate to fit the spare I had in the shed at no extra cost! On time, no mess and no extra cost! What more can you ask for? Such a gentleman and has gained a customer for life. Thank you TFS

James was great, needed an electrical report on a house I am purchasing, within a couple of days the report had been carried out and was sent across. Phone was answered everytime I called and texts replied to quickly. I didn't know what the results exactly meant so gave him a call the day after and he talked me through the issues. Would highly recommend he was also happy to travel quite far into Kent. Price was much lower than another quote we received.
