ELECTRICAL INSPECTION

EICR in
Harrow.

Plan your electrical inspection in Harrow with practical preparation advice, official resources and a clear route to booking.

Harrow-on-the-HillPinnerStanmoreWealdstone

Identify separate supplies and property additions

For a home in Harrow-on-the-Hill, Pinner, Stanmore, Wealdstone or elsewhere in Harrow, tell the booking team about any annexe, extension or electrically supplied garden building. Explain whether it is part of the same dwelling or separately occupied. Scope must be agreed from the actual arrangements rather than assuming that everything within one plot has a single installation.

Find records of electrical work and the complete previous EICR, including any schedules. If access to a cupboard or side building depends on someone else, confirm their availability before the visit. Leave opening equipment and electrical investigation to the qualified person; your preparation is to provide information and arrange access safely.

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.

A well-prepared visit.

01 / SCOPE

Describe the property

Identify the exact dwelling or premises, its full postcode and any shared systems. Commercial and complex properties may need a tailored quote.

02 / ACCESS

Agree the visit

Arrange a keyholder and tell occupiers what to expect. Share previous records and known access restrictions before the appointment.

03 / FOLLOW-UP

Read the findings

Review the report or record and any action required. Repairs, further investigation and repeat visits must be agreed separately.

EICR questions in Harrow

Is an annexe automatically part of the house report?

No. Explain its use and known supply arrangements so the appropriate instruction can be agreed.

Can I send photographs instead of an inspection?

Photographs may help describe access or equipment, but they do not replace inspection and electrical testing.

Is this a council-run service?

No. LPC is an independent provider. Council resources are linked for guidance and do not imply endorsement.
