Make the instruction match the premises
For Romford, Hornchurch, Upminster, Rainham or another Havering address, specify whether the request concerns a dwelling, a shop with accommodation above, or more than one unit. Give each relevant unit identifier and explain any known shared arrangements. Different uses and installations should be reviewed before selecting the scope of an EICR visit.
If the property has a garage or other supplied outside space, mention it alongside the main accommodation. Have any earlier condition report and later electrical certificates ready, and identify who can provide entry to all agreed areas. For a tenanted home, discuss the timing with occupiers so inspection arrangements and any supply interruption can be planned.
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.

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 Havering
Can I book a home inspection for a mixed-use building?
Describe the residential and commercial parts first. The team can discuss the right service and scope rather than assume one domestic booking covers both.
Will a report for the upstairs flat cover the shop?
Do not assume it will. Check the premises and installation stated in the report.
Is this a council-run service?
No. LPC is an independent provider. Council resources are linked for guidance and do not imply endorsement.
