Electrical faults are one of the leading causes of workplace and commercial property fires in the UK.
And, in the majority of cases, they're preventable.
Deteriorating wiring, overloaded circuits, ageing installations, failing connections, unfortunately, these don't announce themselves, they develop slowly and silently, inside distribution boards, across industrial machinery, behind the walls of offices, warehouses, and rental properties, until the point where they can't be ignored.
By which time, it's often too late.
That's precisely why Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) exist and why, for any responsible business owner, facilities manager, or landlord, they should be a non-negotiable part of how you manage your premises.
An EICR isn't just a compliance document. It's a thorough, independent assessment of the condition of your electrical installation, identifying faults, deterioration, and risk before they escalate into something far more serious (think fire damage, business interruption, insurance complications, and, probably the worst, potentially harm to the people in your buildings).
When did your premises last have an EICR?
If you're not sure, that's probably the most important thing on your to-do list right now.
We have been carrying out electrical inspection and testing for commercial, industrial and residential clients across the North East for the last 50 years.
And, as NICEIC-registered contractors, every report we issue is independently backed, so you can be confident it's been done properly.
