Grantham's housing ranges from Victorian terraces near the town centre and St Wulfram's Church to the low-density suburban estates off Gonerby and Manthorpe Roads and the newer developments at Manthorpe and Barrowby. As a commuter town it also has a busy rental market, so plenty of landlords need testing done properly. An EICR is a thorough inspection and test of a property's fixed wiring, consumer unit, sockets and circuits, and it tells you plainly whether the installation is safe to keep using.
We work methodically through the whole installation and report back in plain English, coding each finding by how urgent it is rather than leaving you guessing. With 30 years of experience and City and Guilds qualified throughout, we test to the 18th Edition wiring regulations and hand you the formal report plus a clear summary of what matters and what can wait. You get a free fixed quote before we start, so the price is settled with no surprises on the invoice.

Your questions, answered
Are landlords in Grantham required to have an EICR?
Yes. Privately rented homes need an EICR at least every five years and on a change of tenancy. We test rented properties across Grantham and supply a tenant-ready report.
How often should I test my own home?
Every ten years is the usual guide for an owner-occupied home, sooner for older installations or if you are buying or selling. We are happy to advise on your specific property.
What happens if the report is unsatisfactory?
It simply means one or more items need attention. We explain them in plain English and give you an honest fixed price to put them right, then re-test so you have a satisfactory report.
