EICR & Landlord Certificates in Crookston
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a formal report, produced after a qualified inspection, that assesses the condition of a property's fixed electrical installation — the wiring, consumer unit, sockets and permanently connected equipment — and identifies any work needed to bring it up to a safe standard. In Scotland, the Repairing Standard requires a let property's electrical installation to be kept in a safe condition, and a valid EICR is the accepted evidence of it — commonly renewed on a five-yearly cycle unless an inspection recommends sooner. In a mixed area like Crookston, where large older villas north of the White Cart Water sit alongside tenements, terraces and flat-roofed blocks to the south, the condition of the existing wiring varies significantly by property — which is exactly what an EICR is designed to establish.
- The property is being let or re-let
- Your existing EICR is due for renewal
- Improvement works are planned between tenancies
- The wiring is older and hasn't been checked recently

EICR & Landlord Certificate FAQs — Crookston
Do I legally need an EICR to let my property in Crookston?
Private landlords in Scotland are required to hold a valid EICR for a let property. If you're unsure whether yours is still in date, get in touch and we can advise.
Does an EICR differ for a villa compared to a flat?
The inspection covers the same fixed installation either way, but a larger villa typically has more circuits and connected points to check than a flat, which we account for when we quote.
How long is an EICR valid for?
Reports are commonly renewed on a five-yearly cycle, though an inspection may recommend an earlier re-check if issues are found.
What happens if the report identifies a fault?
We'll explain any findings clearly and provide a written quote for the remedial work needed before anything is carried out.
Do you work with letting agents as well as landlords?
Yes. We work directly with landlords and can coordinate with letting agents and property management companies where needed.
Do you offer free quotes for EICR inspections?
Yes. Quotes are no obligation — send your postcode and property details and we'll confirm the next step.
