Plan a useful inspection brief for occupied homes
For Wimbledon, Mitcham, Morden, Colliers Wood or Raynes Park, start a Merton EICR enquiry with the full address and current layout. Mention electrically supplied outside spaces and any separate occupation. The inspection scope should reflect the actual premises, not just the bedroom count entered on an earlier letting advert.
If the visit needs to fit around tenants or a tenancy handover, confirm when access is genuinely available and who has the relevant keys. Keep the earlier report with certificates for subsequent electrical work. Discuss any need to plan around an interruption to the supply before the appointment; residents should not need to interfere with wiring or equipment to prepare.
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 Merton
Can an old property listing define the inspection?
It may help describe the home, but provide the current layout and installation details for an accurate instruction.
Can I coordinate the visit between tenancies?
Yes. Share the handover and key arrangements so availability and access can be agreed.
Is this a council-run service?
No. LPC is an independent provider. Council resources are linked for guidance and do not imply endorsement.
