How Our EICR Testing Process Works?
Our EICR testing process is straightforward, thorough, and designed to ensure your complete peace of mind. Here’s how we work at MAKSE Electrical and Renewables:
- Initial Consultation
We start with a brief consultation to understand your property type, usage, and electrical setup. Whether it’s a home, rental property, or business premises, we tailor our inspection to your specific needs and ensure compliance with relevant legal requirements.
- On-Site Inspection
Our qualified electricians then visit your property to carry out the EICR inspection. We examine all accessible electrical circuits, sockets, switches, light fittings and distribution boards. Using advanced testing equipment, we check for issues such as faulty wiring, overloads, poor earthing or outdated installations.
- Detailed Reporting
After the inspection, we compile a detailed Electrical Installation Condition Report outlining our findings. Each observation is coded according to its level of risk from minor defects to urgent safety concerns. We’ll walk you through the results so you understand exactly what needs attention.
- Remedial Work (If Required)
If your EICR highlights any faults or non-compliance, we’ll provide a clear quotation for any necessary repairs or upgrades. Our qualified electricians can carry out remedial work quickly and efficiently to ensure your system meets Stafford safety standards.
