Hi. I hope you are all well and keeping busy in these strange times. I look after a ladies house who has had to move back abroad and now needs to let the property out and so she has had an EICR done which has come back with saying it needs a total rewire for few grand. 


What I want to know is can I ask info on here about the codes he has put and if reasonable.


I don't won't to upset anyone by second guessing another trades persons work but I would like an idea if this is right or not?


Thanks you


Regards Lee
  • you will need to up load it to the server for the forum as a picture (the second icon in from the left, looks like a patient temperature graph) or you may link to a file on an external website,  - third icon in, looks a bit like the sign of four in Hindi (char) but rotated  (don't ask why, the software types like to do funny things, and I am often told I see the world in a funny way, it may seem sensible to you..)


    Where it asks for a URL,  you can open an upload tab to explore your own computer and load the file.

    Please do cover anything that identifies addresses and names - a general conversation about codes for certain types of condition is fair game, but someone litigious may decide it is defamation if they are identified.

    I did attach it earlier but it seems to have been missed.
  • Just make sure the sensitive details are retracted properly - sticking black boxes over them in a pdf editor for example is easily circumvented!

  • I cannot see any harm in that. It has been done previously.

    Hi Chris. Wow, thanks for 5he quick response. 


    When you say scan section K, will the upload the whole certificate on here for all to see without the contractors name etc?


    Regards Lee
  • Yes, of course. I feel sure that this will become a reasonably common event with the new legislation.


    Would you like to scan Section K of the EICR - keeping it anonymous naturally?
