Whether you are buying a home in Lancashire, managing a rental portfolio, or responsible for a commercial premises, an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is essential for proving your electrical systems are safe and legally compliant. First Call Electrical Solutions Ltd provides comprehensive EICR testing with fast turnaround on reports.

Our inspection covers every circuit in your property. We test earth bonding and continuity, measure insulation resistance, verify polarity, check RCD functionality and test earth fault loop impedance. We also carry out a full visual inspection of all accessible electrical accessories, looking for signs of damage, overheating, or non-compliance with current wiring regulations.

Every EICR we produce in Leyland includes a detailed report with photographic evidence, coded observations (C1, C2, C3, FI), and clear recommendations for any required remedial work. We explain the findings in plain English and can carry out any necessary repairs to bring your installation up to standard.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions our customers ask most often

A typical domestic EICR in Leyland takes between 2 and 4 hours depending on the size of the property and the number of circuits. Larger properties or commercial premises may take longer. We will give you a time estimate when booking.

C1 means danger present, risk of injury, and immediate action is required. C2 means potentially dangerous and urgent remedial action is needed. C3 means improvement recommended for safety but not immediately dangerous. FI means further investigation is required without delay.

Yes. Since July 2020, landlords in England must have an EICR carried out every 5 years or at each change of tenancy. The report must be given to tenants within 28 days and to new tenants before they move in. Failure to comply can result in fines of up to £30,000.

If your EICR reveals C1 or C2 observations, remedial work must be carried out to make the installation safe. We provide a detailed quote for any required repairs and can complete the work promptly. Once remedial work is done, we issue a satisfactory certificate.
