Electrical Testing - FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about Electrical Testing? Check out our FAQs to find out about some answers to general questions

Domestic electrical testing involves inspecting and testing the fixed wiring and circuits within your home to check for faults, damage, or deterioration. It ensures that your electrical installation is safe, compliant with current UK regulations, and free from hazards that could cause electric shocks or fires.

It is recommended that homeowners have their electrics tested every ten years or when selling or purchasing a property. If you are a landlord, testing is legally required every five years for rental properties.

There may be minor disruption as some circuits need to be temporarily isolated for testing. However, we always aim to minimise inconvenience and will work efficiently to complete the inspection with as little disruption as possible.

If any issues are found, they will be clearly detailed in your Electrical Installation Condition Report. The report will explain the severity of each issue, and we will provide you with a clear quote and advice for carrying out any necessary remedial work.

Yes, once the testing is complete, you will receive a full Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR). This certificate confirms whether your installation is satisfactory or highlights any issues that need attention.

For owner-occupied homes, regular electrical testing is not a legal requirement but is highly recommended for safety. For rental properties, it is a legal requirement to have an EICR carried out at least every five years, or at the start of a new tenancy.

Electrician You Can Trust – Every Time

I’ve had the pleasure of using Westwood Electrical twice now, and both times the service has been absolutely outstanding. Nathan, the electrician, is a true professional who clearly takes pride in his work.

The first time, he came out on short notice to fix an issue with my electric boiler—he diagnosed and resolved the problem quickly and efficiently with no fuss.

The second time, I had an issue with my electric shower. I called Nathan at 6 a.m., and to my amazement, he was at my door by 8 a.m. ready to help. That kind of response time is incredibly rare and very much appreciated.

Nathan is polite, knowledgeable, and explains everything clearly, which gives you total peace of mind. It’s not easy finding tradespeople who are this reliable and genuinely care about their customers.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Westwood Electrical to anyone.
