EICR Electrical Safety Testing in Newcastle upon Tyne

An EICR is the proper health check for the wiring in your Newcastle property, and the city has plenty of homes that benefit from one. From the Victorian terraces and Tyneside flats of Heaton and Byker to the larger family homes in Gosforth and Jesmond, a lot of the wiring we inspect was installed long before modern appliances and EV chargers became part of daily life. Our team carries out a full inspection and gives you a clear report that tells you exactly what is sound and what, if anything, needs attention.

We work across NE1 to NE7 and the wider city, and we keep the whole process simple. We test, we record our findings against current standards, and we explain everything in plain English rather than leaving you with a stack of codes you cannot read. If remedial work is needed we set out one fixed price for your exact job, confirmed before any work starts. With 26 years behind us and NAPIT registration, you get an inspection you can trust whether it is for peace of mind, a house sale or a tenancy.

Your questions, answered

How long does an EICR take in a typical Newcastle home?

Most homes take a few hours depending on the size of the property and the number of circuits. A large house in Gosforth will take longer than a one bedroom Tyneside flat. We will give you a realistic timescale before we start.

Will you need to turn the power off?

Yes, parts of the test need circuits switched off for short periods so we can take accurate readings. We plan it around you to keep disruption to a minimum and tell you in advance.

What happens if my report comes back unsatisfactory?

We explain exactly which items caused it and why, then offer one fixed price to put things right. There is no pressure and no obligation to use us for the remedial work.
