Cringleford, handy for the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital and the UEA, has a real mix of housing: the older village around the bridge, the established streets off Newmarket Road and the big new developments around Round House Park. An EICR is a full health check of a property's fixed wiring, consumer unit, circuits and sockets, and whatever the age of your Cringleford home, it tells you clearly whether the installation is safe to keep using.
I work methodically through the whole installation and code every finding by how urgent it is, then explain it plainly. I am NAPIT registered and DBS checked, I work to BS7671 and I certify the report properly. Where something needs putting right I give a clear fixed price and certify the remedial work myself, so the whole job is handled by one electrician.

Plain-English findings
The formal BS7671 report plus a simple summary of what matters, what it costs and what can safely wait.
Certified remedials
If something needs attention I give an honest fixed price and certify the work once it is done.
Your questions, answered
Do landlords near the hospital need an EICR?
Yes. Any privately rented Cringleford home, including the lets popular with hospital and UEA staff, needs a satisfactory EICR at least every five years and at each change of tenancy. I test, certify and supply the report your agent needs.
Do new-build homes need an EICR?
Newer Cringleford homes are usually in good shape, but a report is still worthwhile if you are buying, letting it out or want reassurance. It also picks up any uncertified alterations.
How long does an EICR take?
Two to four hours for most Cringleford homes, depending on size and the number of circuits. I work cleanly and put everything back exactly as I found it.
