Bring additions and known electrical changes into view
For Ilford, Wanstead, Woodford, Seven Kings or another Redbridge property, describe any extension, loft accommodation or supplied garden building in the EICR enquiry. Say whether those spaces belong to the same dwelling or are separately occupied. This helps define the instruction without assuming the installation arrangement from the external shape of the home.
Keep the complete earlier report and certification for subsequent electrical additions ready. If an agent holds the keys, confirm access to any side gate or separate building as well as the main door. Discuss household needs around testing and possible supply interruption in advance, leaving electrical investigation and equipment access to the qualified inspector.
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.
