What buildings in Edinburgh need
Commercial property in Edinburgh includes multi-let office buildings with shared plant, city-centre retail and leisure units and Grade A and refurbished office space. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.
Many Edinburgh premises have fixed-wire tests overdue after changes of tenant, so we check the last EICR date during the survey.

FAQs: electrical maintenance and testing in Edinburgh
How often does an office need an EICR?
Guidance suggests at least every five years for offices and shops, with shorter intervals for higher-risk premises. The inspector sets the next date on the report.
What happens if the EICR finds faults?
Faults are coded C1, C2 or FI (further investigation). We quote the remedial work so the installation can be brought back to a satisfactory condition.
