FAQs

Common Questions

Can't find your answer? Give us a call on 07940 071963.

Yes. All private rental properties in Corstorphine EH12 must have a valid EICR every 5 years under Scottish regulations. Corstorphine's family homes are popular rental properties, and a current EICR is a legal requirement before and during each tenancy.

Corstorphine's 1930s semis frequently have rewires from the 1960s or 1970s that are now reaching the end of their serviceable life. Common EICR findings include deteriorated PVC wiring insulation, undersized consumer units, missing RCD protection and inadequate earthing to older appliances.

A typical Corstorphine 3-bedroom semi takes around 3–4 hours for a full EICR. Larger detached properties may take longer. We confirm an accurate estimate at booking based on your circuit count and property size.

Not a legal requirement, but Corstorphine buyers and their solicitors frequently request them — particularly for older properties. Having a satisfactory EICR ready removes a common cause of delays and demonstrates the property's electrical integrity to buyers.

Yes. Our Corstorphine EICR reports are accepted by all major UK mortgage lenders. If an EICR is required as a condition of your mortgage offer, we can prioritise your inspection to keep your purchase on track.

If your inspection reveals C1 or C2 coded observations, we provide a clear explanation and a fixed-price quote for remedial work. We aim to complete all remedials in Corstorphine promptly and retest the affected circuits on completion to issue an updated satisfactory report.
