An EICR typically costs £150–350 for a standard house, depending on size, location, and the number of circuits — with London prices generally higher.

The cost of an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) depends mainly on the size of your property. A 1-bedroom flat typically costs £150–200. A 3-bedroom house costs £200–300. A larger 4–5 bedroom property may cost £300–400+. London prices tend to be 20–30% higher than the rest of the UK. The EICR fee usually covers the inspection and the report. If faults are found, remedial work is charged separately. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes (under £100) — these sometimes reflect a superficial inspection or are a loss-leader for remedial work. For landlords, an EICR is legally required every 5 years, so it's worth finding a reliable, consistent electrician. Always ask for a NAPIT or NICEIC registered electrician — their work is independently inspected and carries insurance.
