EICR

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
My friend is going to rent his property out. They had an EICR carrisd out less than 2 years ago with a retest date of 10 years. Since this no additions or alterations have been made to the installation. 

Question is do they need to carry out another EICR and is it classed as a change of tenant? I'm not sure as its a change from owner to tenant and not a change of one tenant to another tenant. Suggestions would be welcomed.

    I was speaking to an Estate Agent about letting a property last week, and she said, you need an EICR. True but she had no idea of what this was and had a tame "Electrician" available to carry it out for a high (my opinion) fee. I may do this and report back, because the results they get and I get may well not be the same! Just how much do you think a 2 bed house in good nick EICR should cost?


    £109 including Maggie's share here.


    Difficult to see how they make much if they do a proper job!
