EICR testing when buying or selling in Audley
- 01
Before you buy
A home survey rarely tests the wiring in detail. An EICR does, and it can show up worn cables, a dated consumer unit or missing earthing before you commit. If you are buying in Audley, ask the seller if you can arrange a test as part of your checks.
- 02
Before you sell
Buyers and their solicitors often ask about the electrics. A recent satisfactory EICR answers those questions in advance. If faults are found, you can have them fixed before the house goes on the market, rather than having them raised partway through a sale.

After years of DIY changes
Homes that have been altered by different owners over the years can hide added sockets, extended circuits and missing earth connections. An EICR checks the whole installation, so you know which parts are sound, which need attention and roughly what it will take to put them right.
Booking EICR testing in Audley
Tell us the size of the house and whether you are buying, selling or living there. If you are a buyer, we need the seller's agreement and access, which the estate agent can usually arrange.
We inspect and test the installation, then send the report. If anything needs work, we quote separately so you can use the figures in your plans or negotiations. Repairs come with their own certificate once they are done.
Helpful before the test
- Seller's agreement if you are buying
- Access to lofts and outbuildings
- Details of any recent electrical work
- Old certificates if available
- A contact for the estate agent

EICR testing in Audley: your questions
Can I get an EICR on a house I am buying in Audley?
Yes, with the seller's permission. The estate agent can usually arrange access. We test the installation and send you the report, along with a quote for any work needed. Many buyers use this to plan their budget or discuss the price before exchanging contracts.
Should I get an EICR before selling my house in Audley?
It can help. A recent satisfactory report answers buyers' questions about the electrics, and if faults are found, you can fix them before marketing the house. That avoids issues being raised by a buyer's survey and delaying the sale later on.
How long is an EICR valid for a home in Audley?
The inspector sets the date of the next inspection on the report, based on the condition of the installation. For owner-occupied homes this is often up to 10 years. It may be sooner if the wiring is older or there are signs of wear.
Will an EICR in Audley find problems from past DIY?
It will find many of them, such as overloaded circuits, missing earths, unsuitable cables and fittings in the wrong bathroom zones. We record each one with a code, explain what it means and give you a quote to put right anything that needs fixing.
