How quickly can you do an EICR in Milton Keynes?

It depends on the time of year, but we'll give you the next available dates when we quote. If a council or letting deadline is involved, tell us and we'll prioritise it where we can.

My MK new-build is still under warranty. Should I get an EICR?

A new build comes with an Electrical Installation Certificate, so an owner-occupier doesn't usually need an EICR for several years. If you're letting it, you need one before the tenancy starts unless the installation certificate is less than five years old and covers the whole installation.

Do you take on small jobs in Milton Keynes?

Yes. A single socket, a light fitting, a tripping RCD: small jobs are a big part of what we do. Send a photo first and we can usually price it straight away.

Electrician in Milton Keynes

EICRs, landlord certificates, PAT testing, repairs and installations, from Wolverton's Victorian terraces to new-build Brooklands and the offices of Central MK.

We're electricians working across Milton Keynes: homeowners, landlords and letting agents, and the shops, offices and units that keep the city running. Most of our work here is EICRs, PAT testing, repairs and the steady flow of smaller jobs: new sockets, light fittings, cookers, showers and fault-finding.

Milton Keynes homes and their electrics

Milton Keynes has more variety in its housing than people expect, and the electrics vary with it:

1970s and 1980s estates such as Netherfield, Fishermead, Beanhill, Coffee Hall, Heelands and Greenleys were built in the city's first decades. Many still have early consumer units without RCD protection, and decades of alterations. These are the homes we most often find C2 observations in.
Older towns absorbed into the city, like Wolverton, Bletchley, Stony Stratford and Newport Pagnell, include Victorian and Edwardian terraces where the wiring may have been replaced in stages, sometimes leaving older cable in place.
Newer grid squares such as Broughton, Brooklands, Oxley Park, Whitehouse and Fairfields are mostly modern installations with RCBO boards. The questions there are usually about adding sockets, garden power, lighting or a cooker circuit, or a landlord's first EICR.

For Milton Keynes landlords

MK has a large private rented sector, from city-centre flats to shared houses near the hospital and around Bletchley. Every privately rented home needs a satisfactory EICR at least every five years under the 2020 regulations. Milton Keynes City Council also licenses houses in multiple occupation and can ask to see your report within seven days.

We arrange tenant access directly, test the installation and any supplied appliances on the same visit, and send an itemised quote for anything that needs fixing so you can meet the 28-day deadline. See our landlord certificate page for the full requirements.

For MK businesses

From Central MK offices to units on Kiln Farm, Denbigh and Mount Farm, commercial premises need periodic inspection, typically every five years, and portable equipment needs PAT testing on a sensible cycle. We test early, late or at weekends so it doesn't stop you trading, and keep one set of records for your insurer and fire risk assessor. More on our commercial EICR service.
