Prepare for the particular address and its access
For an EICR in Uxbridge, Ruislip, Hayes, West Drayton or another Hillingdon neighbourhood, provide the full address and property description rather than only a postcode district. Explain any separate units, supplied outbuildings or electrical cupboards outside the dwelling. The actual installation and the instruction determine what needs to be discussed.
Where a landlord, agent or building manager holds keys, make sure the booking contact can coordinate them with the occupier. Gather the earlier report and evidence of subsequent electrical work. If you are arranging the inspection for a tenancy or licence application, confirm the relevant document requirements with the responsible authority; an appointment is not an inspection result or a council approval.
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.
