EICR Certificates in Hackney

Hackney has one of London's largest private rented sectors, and an in-date EICR is essential before letting or re-letting a property. We inspect properties across Hackney, from the Victorian terraces near London Fields to newer developments around Hackney Central.

What We Check

Covering E8, E9, and the surrounding postcodes.

Consumer Unit

Condition and safety of your fuse board / consumer unit

Wiring

Age, condition, and safety of the property's wiring

Sockets & Switches

Damage, wear, or non-compliant installations

Earthing & Bonding

Correct earthing and bonding throughout the property

Why It Matters in Hackney

Hackney's housing stock ranges from period conversions to newer builds, and we regularly find older properties still running on outdated fuse boards without RCD protection — a common reason for a C2 finding. Sorting this before your tenancy starts avoids a failed inspection derailing your letting timeline.
