Coordinate the dwelling and building boundaries
An EICR enquiry for Woolwich, Eltham, Plumstead, Charlton or Greenwich should identify the exact dwelling and any shared access arrangements. If an electrical cupboard is in a managed part of a block, confirm who can provide authorised entry. The home inspection and any separately managed communal installation must have clear boundaries before the job is agreed.
If renovation has changed the layout, describe the completed rooms and supply available electrical certificates. A new kitchen or extension may have records relevant to the installation history, but decoration alone does not show electrical condition. Keep the complete earlier report available and advise the booking team about occupied rooms, parking arrangements and any building visitor procedure that affects arrival.
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
Fixed wiring, not portable appliances.
An EICR records the condition of the fixed electrical installation within the agreed inspection scope. Discuss access, previous reports and any known alterations with the electrician.
The report may identify work or further investigation. Receiving a report does not mean the installation is satisfactory; follow the findings and agree any next steps separately.

EICR questions in Greenwich
Is a block-wide report the same as my flat report?
Not necessarily. Check the premises and installation described in the document and discuss any uncertainty with the issuer.
Can a recently refurbished home still need inspection?
A refurbishment description does not establish electrical condition. Share the actual certification and inspection history for review.
Is this a council-run service?
No. LPC is an independent provider. Council resources are linked for guidance and do not imply endorsement.
