EICRs & Landlord Certificates in Sittingbourne
EICRs are the single job we're called out for most in Sittingbourne, and the reason is the town's housing stock. The terraces around Milton Regis, Murston and the town centre are old enough that we regularly open a board and find rewireable fuses, no RCD protection at all, and occasionally rubber-sheathed cable that has gone hard. That's not automatically a rewire — but it does mean the report matters. Because we're based in ME10, we can usually inspect and get the certificate back to you the same or next day, and if the report throws up minor remedials we can often clear them on the same visit and issue it as satisfactory.

“Called Gary at 4am he was at my house for 5am and stopped the leak from doing any further damage and arranged for the repair to be carried out by a plumber. Had him back a few weeks later to find the problem with a socket in my garage that kept tripping. He rewired it all for me and now it works perfect.”
“I phoned him on a Saturday morning. He said could he pop round later and give us a quote. He checked everything and said the job was quite straightforward. The price was very reasonable and Gary said he could fit them there and then. Gary is very knowledgeable, he explained everything and carried out the work cleanly and efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gary.”
“I had a problem with my lights, I had no lights in the house at all. Gary came over to the house and got all the electricity sorted for us in under an hour, so I have no problem recommending him and his company for any electrical issues. He was clean and tidy, good value, friendly and fast.”
“Gary has completed work for me a number of times, including fitting a new kitchen light, repairing a broken plug socket, fitting Hive, fitting alarm/security system and changing light switches to dimmer switches. He always completes work to a high standard.”
EICR Testing in Sittingbourne — common questions
How quickly can I get an EICR certificate in Sittingbourne?
Sittingbourne is our home town, so it's the fastest area we cover. We can usually book the inspection within a few days and get the certificate back to you the same or next day after the visit. If you're up against a tenancy start date, tell us when you call on 07825 333341 and we'll work to it.
My Sittingbourne rental has an old fuse board — will it automatically fail?
No. An old board on its own is usually a C3, 'improvement recommended', which does not fail the report. What fails it is a C1 or C2 — for example no RCD protection on circuits that require it, exposed live parts, or damaged cabling. We test first and tell you what's actually there rather than quoting a board change on sight.
How often do landlords need an EICR?
At least every five years, or at change of tenancy if the report recommends it. Homeowners are advised to test every ten years.
What do the EICR codes mean?
C1 means danger present (immediate action), C2 means potentially dangerous (remedial needed), C3 is improvement recommended, and FI means further investigation required. Only C1 and C2 cause a fail.
