EICRs in St Agnes

Electrical testing across St Agnes

St Agnes is full of granite cottages, former miners' homes and holiday lets, many with older wiring that needs careful testing and upgrading.

Because we're electricians as well as testers, any remedial work can be quoted and carried out by the same team, then re-certified, so you're not chasing two firms.

Our office is at Wheal Kitty Studios in St Agnes, so this really is our home patch.

We test properties right across the area, including:

  • St Agnes village
  • Trevaunance Cove
  • Mithian
  • Mount Hawke
  • Blackwater
  • Goonbell
  • Chapel Porth
  • Porthtowan
Who needs an EICR?

EICRs for every kind of property in St Agnes

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

Do you carry out EICRs in St Agnes?

Yes. We test homes, long lets, holiday lets and businesses across St Agnes, including Trevaunance Cove, Mithian, Mount Hawke, Blackwater, Goonbell. Call 01872 553898.

Can you test my St Agnes 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.

Are your quotes fixed?

Yes. We agree the work and the price with you before we start. If we find anything unexpected, we explain and agree it with you first.
