EICR inspections, otherwise known as electrical inspection condition reports, are used to check the overall condition of a property’s electricity. In this case, a local landlord reached out to the team to conduct an EICR report, which when completed raised concerns over the property electrics and they were classed as “unsatisfactory”. This meant the customer had to replace its existing fuse board and wiring with a new distribution board in addition to rectification works to achieve a “satisfactory” certificate for the property.
It’s important to note that the landlord couldn’t start a new tenancy with new or existing tenants until the electricity had been sorted and had received a new EICR report with a “satisfactory” certificate.
The team at Datel Electrical understood the seriousness of the project, and the importance to the customer to get the electrics up to scratch as soon as possible to avoid any potential electrical risks. See our blog post ‘top tips to ensure domestic electrical safety’ for more information.

After the project was completed, the landlord then had a property where the residents could feel safe knowing the electrics had been safely installed with a verified EICR certificate. The landlord also benefits from having a 6-year warranty from Datel Electrical on the completed project.
