Landlord Electrical Services
EICR testing, remedial work, smoke and CO alarms, and full electrical compliance for rental properties across Lincolnshire, Humberside, and Doncaster. Portfolio pricing available.
Legal requirement: All private landlords in England must have a valid EICR before a new tenancy and every 5 years thereafter. Non-compliance can result in fines of up to £30,000 per property.
Since June 2020, the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations require every landlord to have a valid Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) for each rental property. The report must be carried out by a qualified, registered electrician and renewed at least every five years — or before a new tenancy begins, whichever comes first.
Ecoleaf Energy provides a complete landlord electrical compliance service. We carry out the EICR inspection, deliver your report within 24 hours, complete any remedial work identified, and install or test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms as required. One electrician, one point of contact, from start to finish.
For landlords with multiple properties, we offer portfolio pricing with consolidated invoicing and renewal date tracking — so you never miss a deadline or risk a fine.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a landlord need for electrical compliance?
Since June 2020, all landlords in England must have a valid EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) before a new tenancy begins and every five years thereafter. You must also have working smoke alarms on every storey and a carbon monoxide alarm in any room with a fixed combustion appliance. We provide all of these services.
Do you offer portfolio pricing for landlords?
Yes. If you manage multiple rental properties, we offer discounted portfolio pricing for EICR inspections and can schedule visits across your portfolio to minimise administration. We also provide renewal date tracking so you never miss an inspection deadline.
How often do I need an EICR?
Landlords must have a valid EICR every five years or at the start of each new tenancy. Homeowners are advised to have an EICR every ten years. Commercial properties require testing every five years. If you're buying a property, we strongly recommend an EICR before exchange.
What happens if my EICR fails?
If the inspection identifies C1 (danger present) or C2 (potentially dangerous) codes, remedial work is required before the report can be classified as satisfactory. We provide a clear quote for all remedial work and can usually complete it within a few days. Landlords have 28 days to complete remedial work for C1/C2 codes.
