EICRs in Barnet
We carry out EICRs, consumer unit changes, rewires and remedial work in Barnet itself: High Barnet, New Barnet, East Barnet and the roads around the old market town. Landlords get the five-yearly report the law requires; owners get a clear picture of older wiring before they buy or renovate.

A third of Barnet households rent privately
At the 2021 census, 48,705 households in the London Borough of Barnet rented privately, 32.7% of the 148,917 households in the borough, up from 25.6% in 2011. Every one of those homes needs an EICR at least every five years, which makes landlord inspections the most common electrical check in the borough.
Much older than the rest of the borough
Chipping Barnet, the old town at the top of the hill, was given its market charter by King John on 23 August 1199, and the Battle of Barnet was fought just north of it in 1471. It was part of Hertfordshire until 1965. The older buildings along the high street often have flats above shops, each flat with its own supply and board. The flat’s installation needs the landlord EICR; the shop below is a separate report for whoever is responsible for it.
