EICR in Rooksdown
JD Electricals carries out EICR testing in Rooksdown. The visit starts with the fixed installation that can be inspected on the day, using the held stock around Rooksdown Avenue.
“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

Electrical testing pricing
Our pricing covers a complete inspection and written report for your domestic electrical installation. The final price reflects the size and complexity of your electrical system.
- The price covers testing all accessible circuits and providing the written electrical report.
- The number of consumer units and total circuits across the property determines the cost.
- Remedial repairs for issues identified during testing are quoted separately.
EICR testing in Rooksdown
- An Electrical Installation Condition Report checks the safety of your fixed wiring, consumer unit and electrical accessories. We carry out inspections for landlords, home buyers and homeowners across Rooksdown.
- Private rental properties require an up-to-date electrical condition report before a new tenancy begins and at scheduled intervals. We carry out thorough checks and issue paperwork that records the condition of every accessible circuit.
- Buyers and solicitors request electrical condition reports to verify the status of the electrical system before completing a sale. We inspect the circuits and consumer unit so buyers and sellers have clear facts about the property.
- Older domestic wiring or installations that have had alterations benefit from routine testing. An inspection identifies deterioration, damaged fittings and outdated components before they cause recurring issues in your home.

- JD Electricals completes condition reports across residential properties in Rooksdown. We assess fixed electrical installations to help owners and landlords maintain electrical safety.
- Landlords managing rental properties on Park Prewett Road and surrounding roads can schedule electrical tests between lets. We examine the consumer unit, protective bonding and domestic circuits to deliver an accurate written condition report.

- Whether buying a home on Rooksdown Avenue or updating electrical documentation, our checks evaluate fixed wiring without disturbing the fabric of the building more than necessary.
What happens during an electrical safety check
We inspect and test the electrical system with minimal disruption, testing each circuit systematically and going through the written results with you.
- 01
Visual assessment and access
We walk through the property to locate the consumer unit, meter position, main earthing terminals and accessible switches and sockets. Power is managed carefully so parts of the home remain active whenever practical.
- 02
Instrument testing at the consumer unit
We carry out live and dead tests on each circuit at the board. This step checks continuity, insulation resistance and correct trip times on residual current devices, highlighting any circuit defects or deterioration.
- 03
Review of findings and paperwork
Before packing up, we explain what was found across the installation. We compile the condition report detailing observations and standard safety codes, giving you an official record of the electrical condition.

Frequently asked questions about EICRs
Common questions about domestic electrical installation condition reports, testing procedures and safety certificates for homes and rental properties.
How often does a landlord need an EICR?+
Under rental regulations in England, private rental properties must have a valid electrical condition report carried out at least every five years, or at the start of a new tenancy if the previous certificate has expired. We record the inspection date on the report so you know exactly when the next test is required.
— James Dunn
How long does an electrical inspection take?+
The time required depends on the number of circuits, consumer units and overall size of the home. A typical house with one consumer unit usually takes a morning to inspect and test thoroughly, while larger properties with multiple distribution boards require additional time.
— James Dunn
Will the electricity need to be turned off during testing?+
Yes, the power must be turned off to conduct dead testing and verify insulation resistance safely. We isolate individual circuits in stages wherever possible, keeping power interruptions as brief and manageable as we can while testing takes place.
What happens if a circuit fails the electrical inspection?+
If testing reveals an issue, it receives a standard code such as C1 for danger present or C2 for potentially dangerous. We explain the finding clearly on the report and provide a separate written quote for remedial work so you can review the details.
Do you test flats as well as houses?+
Yes, we carry out electrical condition reports on flats, apartments and houses across Rooksdown and the wider Basingstoke area. Each individual dwelling with its own consumer unit receives a dedicated inspection and report.
What paperwork do I receive after the inspection?+
You receive an Electrical Installation Condition Report that details the condition of the consumer unit, earthing arrangements and all tested circuits. The document states whether the installation is satisfactory and notes any observed defects with official condition codes.
