What does the EICR cost cover?
Understanding what you are paying for helps you evaluate whether a quote is reasonable. An EICR is not a quick visual check, it is a systematic, circuit-by-circuit inspection and test of the entire fixed electrical installation in the property.
- Visual inspection of the consumer unit (fuse box), wiring, sockets, switches and light fittings
- Dead testing of every circuit, continuity and polarity checks with the power off
- Live testing, insulation resistance and RCD (residual current device) testing with power on
- Identification of any C1, C2, C3 or FI coded observations
- Written EICR report with every circuit recorded and a pass or unsatisfactory outcome
- Certificate emailed within 24 hours of the inspection
The inspection is carried out by a NICEIC approved or NAPIT certified electrician, both government-recognised competent person schemes assessed against BS 7671 (the wiring regulations). All our engineers carry public liability insurance and professional indemnity cover.
How our EICR costs compare
The national average for a domestic EICR quoted by price comparison sites is typically £150–£300 for a 2–3 bedroom property, with some London electricians quoting £200–£400+. This variation exists because many electricians quote an hourly rate rather than a fixed price, meaning the final bill depends on how long the job takes, which the landlord cannot predict in advance.
| Property | Market range | Our price |
|---|---|---|
| Studio / 1 bed | £80–£200 | £67.99 |
| 1–3 bedrooms | £150–£300 | £94.99 |
| 4 bedrooms | £200–£350 | £104.99 |
| 5 bedrooms | £250–£400 | £139.99 |
Market range figures are approximate, based on published price comparison data for London and the M25 area (2025).
What affects the cost of an EICR?
- Property size
- The primary driver. More bedrooms means more rooms, more circuits and more test points. A studio might have 6–8 circuits; a large HMO can have 20 or more. Our pricing reflects this directly.
- Number of circuits and consumer units
- Each circuit from the consumer unit (fuse box) must be tested for continuity, polarity and insulation resistance individually. More circuits equals more time, and commercial properties often have multiple consumer units, which is why commercial pricing is structured around consumer unit count.
- Age and type of wiring
- Older wiring, such as rubber-insulated wiring common in pre-1970s properties, requires more careful testing and is more likely to produce findings. This does not change our quoted price, but any remedial works identified in the report are quoted separately.
- Property complexity
- Outbuildings, detached garages, large garden circuits, non-standard consumer unit configurations or split-phase supplies take additional time. Our standard domestic prices cover typical residential properties, unusual configurations may need a custom quote.
- Whether remedial works are needed
- The EICR itself is a fixed price. If C1 or C2 codes are found, remedial works are required to make the installation safe and are priced separately. This is not included in the EICR cost.
Commercial EICR costs
Commercial EICRs are priced by number of consumer units (each covering up to 10 circuits). Additional circuits above 10 per unit are charged at £10 per circuit.

How to keep your EICR cost as low as possible
- Select the correct property size tier, check your bedroom count carefully before booking to avoid paying for a larger band.
- Bundle with Gas Safety and EPC, our Essential Bundle (EICR + CP12) saves £14.99; the Full Compliance Bundle saves £24.98 on three certificates.
- Ensure full access before the engineer arrives, consumer unit accessibility, loft hatches and outbuilding keys all need to be ready. Delays add risk to the schedule.
- Fix known faults beforehand, a broken socket or a circuit that trips repeatedly will produce a C2 code and may require a re-inspection visit, which adds cost.
- Choose a fixed-price provider, avoid quotes on an hourly basis, which are unpredictable. Our prices are listed in full and do not change on the day.
- Book early in the renewal cycle, leaving the EICR until your certificate expires creates urgency that some providers charge a premium for.
Save more, bundle your EICR
Most landlords who need an EICR also need a Gas Safety Certificate and/or an EPC around the same time. Booking them together in a single visit saves money and eliminates the need for multiple access appointments with your tenants.

What London landlords say
“I’ve now used this company four times and can honestly say they’ve been brilliant from start to finish.
I originally found them after being let down repeatedly by another company (to the point where I’m now having to take legal action), so I was understandably very nervous about using someone new. I’m so glad I chose them.
They’ve carried out EICRs, Fire Risk Assessments, a substantial package of follow-on fire safety works, and I’ve now booked them again for another Fire Risk Assessment, EICR and an Asbestos Management Survey.
Every member of the team has been incredibly responsive, professional and helpful. They’re always happy to answer questions, no matter how many you have, and they never make you feel like you’re a burden. Communication has been excellent throughout, which is something I really value.
On the larger follow-on works, they initially quoted two days to complete the job but actually finished it in just over one day, which was a fantastic surprise. Although I wasn’t present during the Fire Risk Assessment at one of the blocks, one of the directors there commented on how friendly and helpful their surveyor was. One of my own team members, who met him on site, said exactly the same.
Overall, I’m genuinely impressed with the quality of their work, their professionalism and how easy they are to deal with. They’ve gone above and beyond on every project we’ve given them, and they’ll continue to be my first choice for compliance work. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”
“Spot on service from John from start to finish. Booked an EICR online and the engineer turned up right on time. Certificate sent over the next morning.”
