EICR Testing for Home Buyers, Sellers & Landlords in Bracknell & Surrounding Areas
Imperial Electrical Solutions Ltd — Trusted Local Electricians Covering Bracknell, Wokingham, Camberley, Ascot, Windsor, Crowthorne, Sandhurst, Reading & Beyond
Whether you’re buying a new home, selling a property, or you’re a landlord or estate agent managing rental compliance, an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is one of the most important safety checks you can carry out.
At Imperial Electrical Solutions Ltd, we complete dozens of EICRs every month and provide fast, reliable and fully compliant reporting for domestic and commercial properties across Berkshire and the surrounding areas.
We understand that for buyers, sellers and landlords, time is often critical — which is why our EICR certificates are typically issued within a few days of inspection, and never later than seven days.
Why Home Buyers Should Get an EICR Before Purchasing a Property
Many buyers assume that a home survey or mortgage valuation will highlight electrical issues — but this is not the case.
A property survey does not assess the condition of the electrical installation. Only a qualified electrician carrying out an EICR can do this.
Benefits of an EICR When Buying a Home
- Identifies dangerous or outdated wiring
- Highlights hidden faults not visible during a viewing
- Helps you budget for remedial work
- Can potentially save thousands on unexpected repairs
- Gives peace of mind before exchanging contracts
We regularly carry out EICRs for buyers in Bracknell, Wokingham, Camberley and surrounding areas who want clarity on what they’re really buying. In some cases, the findings help negotiate the sale price — or prevent buyers taking on costly electrical issues.
Selling a Property? An EICR Helps You Sell With Confidence
While there’s no legal requirement for sellers to provide an EICR, many buyers now request one — especially in older properties.
Why Sellers Choose to Have an EICR Done
- Avoid delays during the conveyancing process
- Demonstrate that the electrics are safe, modern and compliant
- Prevent last-minute negotiations or price reductions
- Help your property stand out in a competitive market
One important point:
We cannot issue a “Satisfactory” certificate unless all required remedial work has been completed.
This is a legal requirement, and we always follow NICEIC and government guidelines. If remedials are needed, we provide a clear, transparent quote for the work.
Landlords & Estate Agents: Stay Compliant with 5-Year EICR Renewals
