EICRs for every kind of property in Penzance
Long-let landlords
In England, privately rented homes need an EICR at least every five years, with a copy given to tenants and to the council if asked.
Holiday-let owners
Holiday lets aren't covered by the same EICR law as long lets, but your fire risk assessment, insurer and letting agent will usually expect an up-to-date EICR, and often PAT testing too.
Businesses and industrial sites
Employers must keep electrical systems safe under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. An EICR is the standard way to show it, typically every five years for shops and offices and more often for industrial premises.
Homeowners
Recommended every ten years, when buying or selling, or before major work such as an EV charger or solar.
Every EICR includes
- Inspection of the whole fixed installation
- Every circuit tested and recorded
- Observations coded C1, C2, C3 or FI
- Clear report with a satisfactory or unsatisfactory result
- Remedial work quoted and carried out
- Copies sent for tenants, agents or insurers

EICR testing in Penzance: your questions
Call us if yours isn't here.
Do you carry out EICRs in Penzance?
Yes. We test homes, long lets, holiday lets and businesses across Penzance, including Newlyn, Heamoor, Gulval, Mousehole, Marazion. Call 01736 888157.
Can you test my Penzance holiday let between bookings?
Yes. Tell us your changeover days and we'll plan the EICR, PAT testing and alarm checks around them.
How long is an EICR valid for?
The report states when the next test is due: usually five years for rented homes, shops and offices, more often for industrial sites and holiday accommodation with heavy use, and ten years for owner-occupied homes.
What do C1, C2, C3 and FI mean?
C1 is danger present, C2 is potentially dangerous, C3 is improvement recommended, and FI is further investigation needed. Any C1, C2 or FI makes the report unsatisfactory.
Do holiday lets legally need an EICR?
The five-yearly EICR law applies to long lets. For holiday lets, it isn't a specific legal requirement, but your fire risk assessment, insurer and letting agent will usually expect one, so most owners have one done regularly.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the job. Send us the details, with photos if you can, and we'll give you a clear quote before any work starts.
