EICR Requirements for Landlords in Bermondsey

Since the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 came into force, landlords have been legally required to ensure the electrical installation is inspected and tested at least every five years. Copies of the report must be provided to tenants on request and to the local authority within 7 days.

An unsatisfactory EICR — one containing C1 or C2 observations — requires the landlord to arrange and complete remedial works within 28 days where specified. Where an immediate danger (C1) is present, action is required without delay. Written evidence of completion must be provided to tenants.

EICR Pro supports landlords across London Borough of Southwark with the full process: inspection, clear reporting, and remedial work quotation where needed.

Local Property Insight

Common EICR Issues in Bermondsey Properties

The property mix in Bermondsey — including converted warehouse apartments, managed blocks, above-shop flats, Victorian terraces — means inspectors commonly encounter a varied range of observations. The following are issues frequently identified during EICR inspections in the area.

Old wiring in converted warehouse properties
Older cable types — including pre-1990s PVC-insulated wiring — can deteriorate over time and may generate observations relating to cable condition, particularly where insulation has become brittle or cables run without adequate protection.
Lack of RCD
Older consumer units without full RCD or RCBO protection are found in properties that have not been updated for many years. This does not automatically mean the installation is dangerous, but can result in a C2 classification depending on the inspection findings.
Fire-rated downlight issues
Downlights penetrating ceilings between flats should be fire-rated to maintain compartmentation. Missing or failed intumescent seals are a frequent source of C2 observations in converted and converted-flat properties across the area.
Consumer unit access in managed blocks
In managed blocks, consumer units are sometimes located in communal riser cupboards or areas that require coordination with building management to access. EICR Pro can liaise with block managers to arrange inspection access efficiently.

Local Expertise

EICR Services Across Bermondsey

🏢
Testing in Managed Blocks in Bermondsey
A significant proportion of rental properties in Bermondsey are in managed apartment blocks where inspection access needs to be coordinated with building managers, concierge staff, or managing agents. EICR Pro can liaise directly with block managers to confirm logistics, minimise disruption, and deliver reports efficiently.
💡
Fire-Rated Downlights in Converted Properties
In converted flats common across Bermondsey, downlights penetrating ceilings between dwellings should be fire-rated to maintain compartmentation. Missing or failed intumescent seals are a frequent source of C2 observations, particularly in older conversions where lighting has been retrofitted.
🏪
Above-Shop Flats and Mixed-Use Properties
Above-shop flats and mixed-use properties are found throughout Bermondsey. A standard EICR covers the residential installation — where a commercial EICR is also required for ground-floor premises, EICR Pro can discuss the combined scope and arrange both inspections where practical.
After a Failed EICR

Remedial Works in Bermondsey

If an EICR in Bermondsey is issued as unsatisfactory, the landlord must arrange remedial works within 28 days where required — or sooner if a C1 immediate danger is identified on the report.

EICR Pro can provide a separate quotation for remedial works following an unsatisfactory inspection. On completion, we issue written confirmation of remediation — giving you the complete compliance paper trail in one place.

For tenanted properties in Bermondsey, we understand the practicalities of arranging access and scheduling works around tenant occupation. We aim to make the process as straightforward as possible for both landlord and tenant.

RCD Protection & Consumer Units

One of the most common reasons for an unsatisfactory EICR in Bermondsey is the lack of adequate RCD or RCBO protection. An older consumer unit without full RCD coverage does not automatically mean the installation is dangerous — but depending on the overall inspection findings it may result in a C2 classification.

Upgrading to a modern dual RCD or full RCBO consumer unit can resolve multiple observations in a single job. EICR Pro can provide a clear quotation for consumer unit upgrades where inspection findings indicate this is the appropriate course of action.

Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, landlords must ensure the electrical installation is inspected and tested at least every five years. A copy of a satisfactory report must be provided to tenants when requested and to Southwark Council within 7 days if requested.
What happens if my EICR in Bermondsey is unsatisfactory?
If your EICR is issued as unsatisfactory, remedial works must be completed within 28 days where required — or sooner if a C1 (immediate danger) observation is identified. EICR Pro can provide a separate quotation for remedial works and issue written confirmation of completion.
Can EICR Pro carry out remedial works after a failed EICR?

Do HMOs in Bermondsey need extra electrical checks?
A standard EICR covers the fixed electrical installation. HMO and licensing requirements from Southwark Council may also include fire alarm systems, emergency lighting, and smoke detector provision — which can sit outside the scope of a standard EICR. We recommend confirming specific requirements with your licensing authority.
