As a landlord, one of the many ways to ensure the safety of your tenants and your property is to comply with electrical safety regulations and keeping your Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) up to date. With renewal deadlines due in April 2025/2026, now is the time to act.
Renewing your EICR isn’t just about ticking a box—it’s a legal requirement with serious consequences if neglected. Failing to maintain an up-to-date EICR could lead to:
Ensure your inspector is registered with a competent person scheme, such as NICEIC or NAPIT, to guarantee high-quality work.
Avoid the last-minute rush by scheduling your EICR well in advance. When EICRs first became mandatory in 2020/2021, a last-minute scramble caused delays and added stress for landlords as demand for qualified electricians outstripped supply — avoid these pitfalls by booking your inspection ahead of time.
The demand for EICRs is expected to spike in 2025/2026, making it increasingly difficult to secure an electrician for inspections and necessary repairs. However, landlords with 2025 renewal deadlines should not delay. By acting now, you can ensure compliance, maintain tenant safety, and avoid potential legal or financial penalties.
