The studio town
Borehamwood has been a film and television town for a century. Elstree Film Studios opened in 1925, MGM-British ran its studios here from 1935 to 1970, the BBC Elstree Centre is still here, and Sky Studios Elstree opened in 2023. The town keeps growing: its population rose from 31,955 in 2011 to 36,322 in 2021, an increase of almost 14%.
Post-war homes and changing cable
Much of Borehamwood’s housing was built after the Second World War as council housing for Londoners whose homes had been lost. That timing sits right on a change in wiring: the IET notes that plastic-insulated cable began replacing rubber in the 1950s. On an EICR in a home of that era, which cable type is in the walls makes a real difference to the result.
Private renting is less common in Hertsmere than in the London boroughs next door: 7,370 of the district’s 42,682 households, about 17%, rented privately at the 2021 census.

Questions from Borehamwood
Do you cover Elstree village?
Yes. We cover all of WD6, including Elstree.
Can you check an ex-council house before I buy it?
Yes, with the seller’s agreement. A home EICR before exchange tells you whether the wiring, the board or both need work.
