Prepare for all agreed parts of the home
For Carshalton, Wallington, Cheam, Belmont or Sutton, describe the premises beyond the main rooms when enquiring about an EICR. Mention a supplied garage, converted loft or separate annexe and explain any distinct occupation. The team can then discuss whether the requested instruction matches the installation and the areas you can provide access to.
Collect the earlier condition report and certificates for subsequent electrical work. If someone else controls a key or locked electrical area, coordinate them with the occupier before the appointment. Let the team know about equipment or household needs affecting the timing of a possible supply interruption; safe preparation is about information and access, not opening equipment yourself.
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.
