Local Property Insight

Common EICR Issues in Blackheath Properties

The property mix in Blackheath — including large Victorian and Edwardian houses, converted garden flats, private rental properties — means inspectors commonly encounter a varied range of observations. The following are issues frequently identified during EICR inspections in the area.

Old rewireable fuse boards
Pre-1970s rewireable fuse boards without RCD protection are found in some older rental properties and can generate multiple observations during inspection. These boards represent an older standard of installation.
Missing supplementary bonding in bathrooms
Earthing and supplementary bonding in older properties can be incomplete or non-compliant with current standards — particularly in bathrooms and kitchens of period conversions where work has been carried out by different tradespeople over many years.
Lack of RCD protection
Older consumer units without full RCD or RCBO protection are found in properties that have not been updated for many years. This does not automatically mean the installation is dangerous, but can result in a C2 classification depending on the inspection findings.
DIY wiring additions in loft conversions
Converted warehouse and period properties can retain older wiring from previous uses. Pre-1990s wiring, incomplete rewires, and older cable types are commonly identified in conversion properties and can generate multiple observations.

Local Expertise

EICR Services Across Blackheath

🏛️
Period Properties and Older Housing Stock
Blackheath has a notable stock of period properties, many converted into flats or let as whole houses. Older installations can accumulate alterations over time, and an EICR will document the current condition clearly so landlords understand exactly what is present and what — if anything — is required.
Consumer Unit and RCD Upgrades
Many rental properties in Blackheath still contain older consumer units, including split-load boards with partial RCD protection or older rewireable fuse boards. A consumer unit upgrade to a modern dual RCD or full RCBO board can resolve multiple EICR observations in a single job.
🔌
Domestic EICRs for Older Rental Properties
A significant proportion of rental properties in Blackheath were built before current wiring regulations came into force. Older installations can accumulate alterations and additions over time. EICR Pro carries out thorough domestic inspections that document the installation's condition clearly without unnecessary jargon.
After a Failed EICR

Remedial Works in Blackheath

If an EICR in Blackheath is issued as unsatisfactory, the landlord must arrange remedial works within 28 days where required — or sooner if a C1 immediate danger is identified on the report.

EICR Pro can provide a separate quotation for remedial works following an unsatisfactory inspection. On completion, we issue written confirmation of remediation — giving you the complete compliance paper trail in one place.

For tenanted properties in Blackheath, we understand the practicalities of arranging access and scheduling works around tenant occupation. We aim to make the process as straightforward as possible for both landlord and tenant.

RCD Protection & Consumer Units

One of the most common reasons for an unsatisfactory EICR in Blackheath is the lack of adequate RCD or RCBO protection. An older consumer unit without full RCD coverage does not automatically mean the installation is dangerous — but depending on the overall inspection findings it may result in a C2 classification.

Upgrading to a modern dual RCD or full RCBO consumer unit can resolve multiple observations in a single job. EICR Pro can provide a clear quotation for consumer unit upgrades where inspection findings indicate this is the appropriate course of action.
