Plan your electrical inspection in Kensington and Chelsea with practical preparation advice, official resources and a clear route to booking.
For Kensington, Chelsea, North Kensington or Notting Hill, identify the actual dwelling and any relevant areas outside its front door when discussing an EICR. If a basement cupboard, common entrance or managed electrical room is involved, arrange access through the person responsible. The instruction should distinguish a home’s installation from communal or separately occupied parts.
Where rooms have been reconfigured or electrical work has followed refurbishment, collect the available certificates and explain the completed changes. The inspector should see the earlier report as well as later records rather than only the newest document. Do not remove covers or disturb fittings to prepare; describe access restrictions and let the qualified person decide the inspection arrangements.
