EICR Requirements for Landlords in Bickley

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 Bromley with the full process: inspection, clear reporting, and remedial work quotation where needed.

Local Property Insight

Common EICR Issues in Bickley Properties

The property mix in Bickley — including large Victorian houses, private rental homes, detached and semi-detached properties — means inspectors commonly encounter a varied range of observations. The following are issues frequently identified during EICR inspections in the area.

Old rewireable fuse boards
Pre-1970s rewireable fuse boards without RCD protection are found in some older rental properties and can generate multiple observations during inspection. These boards represent an older standard of installation.
Complex period property wiring
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 protection
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 in converted attics
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.

Local Expertise

EICR Services Across Bickley

🏛️
Period Properties and Older Housing Stock
Bickley has a notable stock of period properties, many converted into flats or let as whole houses. Older installations can accumulate alterations over time, and an EICR will document the current condition clearly so landlords understand exactly what is present and what — if anything — is required.
💡
Fire-Rated Downlights in Converted Properties
In converted flats common across Bickley, 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.
🔌
Domestic EICRs for Older Rental Properties
A significant proportion of rental properties in Bickley were built before current wiring regulations came into force. Older installations can accumulate alterations and additions over time. EICR Pro carries out thorough domestic inspections that document the installation's condition clearly without unnecessary jargon.
After a Failed EICR

Remedial Works in Bickley

If an EICR in Bickley 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 Bickley, 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 Bickley 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.

A copy of a satisfactory report must be provided to tenants when requested and to Bromley Council within 7 days if requested.
What happens if my EICR in Bickley is unsatisfactory?

Can EICR Pro carry out remedial works after a failed EICR?

Do HMOs in Bickley need extra electrical checks?
A standard EICR covers the fixed electrical installation. HMO and licensing requirements from Bromley 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.
