    EICR's for landlords

    Posted 26 February

    Ian did 5x EICR's and passed all 5 flats, a couple of which required remedial work, which he carried out immediately. Good value for money, and professional. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to other landlords. (Nice guy as well, which is a bonus)

    First class emergency service ⭐

    Posted 27 November 2025

    What an absolute angel to save my sanity after I accidentally set off a discontinued british gas security alarm. Ian answered my call for help quickly, politely and with good humour. We are safe, sound and quiet again. Fantastic service 10/10

    5* - Thank you!

    Posted 06 November 2025

    Ian was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish. We had a cancellation and were desperate for the EICR to be complete, Ian managed to squeeze us in the next day with the certificate in my inbox the following evening. Truly couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you Ian and team!
