    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    The letting agent doesn't even respond to my emails, I don't think he is interested in my concerns

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    The second electrician was recommended by my letting agent. The letting agent sent him the report and the photos and his response was that the unit needs to change and the regulations change every 1-2 years and I have to comply. And when I asked if I will need to be changing the unit every year...

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    Thank you all for the advice and your help, I will start calling people tomorrow and see what they say. I don't know of any friends that would have rented out their property and need an EICR. It is the first time I am renting out my flat as well and wasn't aware of what I need to look out for...

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    He didn't suggest to fix it because he said everything was ok. I am wondering why he wanted to live in a property where the installation was in "poor condition" and "unsatisfactory". I will raise a complaint about him / the company with his trade association, I don't want to let this go. I am...

    So the test results are also problematic?

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    I know, totally unprofessional. Are the issues in relation to his report or do you think there are issues with my installation that he didn't pick up?

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    He was asking me if the flat will be rented out because he liked it and wanted to rent it and wanted me to by-pass the agent and give it to him cheaper. However it was still too expensive for him. Do you think there was more to this question? I am attaching the test results as well. I haven't...

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    The company that issued the report is registered with NAPIT. I am welcoming any recommendations for qualified competent electricians, my flat is in London. It shouldn't have been so difficult to find a competent electrician. I don't mind paying for another report as long as they don't start...

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    I found the extract from the wiring regulations, I will send it to them though I don't think they are interested in what I have to say. They keep repeating the same points (copy / paste email). I don't know, I guess they are registered. I found them on google, checked their reviews. The second...

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    I have started a dispute with them through my bank, I don't think they offered the service I paid for. Any advice on how to proceed with this?

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    Exactly what I suspected. Any advice on how to proceed now? I wasn't aware of the "trend" but I am getting to know it now. They keep quoting the following to substantiate their report As per regulation of IET regulations; 411.3.4 that states that all circuits supplying luminares will be...

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    Lol. The quote was for £770. I talked to another electrician today, he was saying the regulation changes every year or so and you have to comply. His quote was £670

    EICR test failed due to no RCD on smoke detector, lighting, door bell, security alarm

    Hi, I recently did an EICR test on my flat built in 2008. The engineer was in my flat for less than 10 mins, he was asking me irrelevant questions as in whether I am renting and that is interested to rent. In the end he said everything looks fine and will get the report in 24 hours. The report...
