About our electrical inspection & testing services

AXO Electrical Contractors provide professional electrical inspection and testing for landlords, homeowners and businesses across Reading, Berkshire, Surrey, Hampshire and the South East. As NICEIC approved electricians, we carry out Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR), fixed wire testing and PAT testing, issuing clear, compliant certificates the same day where possible.

An EICR is a formal safety inspection of your property's wiring. Landlords in England are legally required to have a valid EICR at least every five years and provide a copy to tenants, while homeowners and businesses are advised to test regularly. We inspect, test and document the condition of your installation and clearly explain any remedial work required.

Our inspection and testing services include landlord EICR certificates, commercial fixed wire testing, periodic inspection, PAT testing of portable appliances and expert electrical fault finding. Every report is carried out to BS 7671 standards by qualified electricians, with honest advice and upfront pricing.

FAQs

Electrical Inspection & Testing — FAQs

Common questions about electrical inspection & testing.

Do I legally need an EICR for my rental property?

Yes. Landlords in England must have a valid EICR carried out at least every five years and provide a copy to tenants. We carry out landlord EICR testing and issue compliant certificates.

How long does an EICR take?

A typical domestic EICR takes a few hours depending on the size of the property and number of circuits. We aim to issue your certificate the same day where possible.

What happens if my EICR is unsatisfactory?

If the report identifies remedial work, we clearly explain what's needed and provide a fixed-price quote to bring your installation up to standard and achieve a satisfactory certificate.

Do you offer PAT testing too?

Yes. We carry out PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) for landlords and businesses alongside EICR and fixed wire testing, keeping you compliant and insured.
