Testing & Inspections (EICR)

Electrical testing and inspections for safer homes

​

Regular electrical testing helps identify potential issues before they become serious problems.

Cotswold Heritage Electrical provides electrical testing and inspections (EICR) for homeowners and landlords across Witney, Oxfordshire and the wider Cotswolds.

​

Whether you’re checking the safety of an older property or meeting landlord requirements, we carry out inspections carefully and clearly.

What is an EICR?

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) checks the condition of a property’s electrical system.

It helps identify:

​

  • Wear or deterioration
     

  • Potential safety risks
     

  • Areas that may need attention or upgrading
     

An EICR provides peace of mind and helps ensure installations remain safe and compliant.

Testing for modern and period properties

Older homes often require extra care during inspections.

We carry out electrical testing in:

  • Family homes
     

  • Period and character properties
     

  • Listed buildings
     

  • Rental and managed properties
     

Where properties are older, we take time to understand the installation and assess it properly, rather than rushing checks.

A clear and straightforward process

We aim to make electrical inspections simple and stress-free.

Our approach includes:

  • A thorough inspection of the electrical installation
     

  • Clear explanation of any findings
     

  • Practical advice on next steps if needed
     

  • Full written certification once complete
     

We explain results in plain language, without unnecessary jargon.

Electrical testing in the Cotswolds

Many homes in the Cotswolds have older wiring or unique construction.

We’re experienced in:

  • Inspecting older electrical systems
     

  • Testing installations in period properties
     

  • Carrying out landlord safety inspections
     

  • Providing clear reports for homeowners and landlords
     

This ensures inspections are accurate and appropriate for the property.
