Question 6

Do holiday lets in Holsworthy need an EICR?

Accepted Answer

The five-year legal rule covers tenancies, not holiday lets. Most insurers and booking platforms still expect one, though, and it's the easiest way to prove the place is safe if anything goes wrong. Plenty of Holsworthy owners book it between seasons alongside a PAT test.

Question 7

What's different about electrics in farmhouses near Holsworthy?

Accepted Answer

Overhead supplies out in the country around Holsworthy often have their own earth rod (a TT system), so RCD protection and rod tests matter more. Old outbuildings, long cable runs and damp barns are the other usual issues. Allow a bit longer, and budget nearer £280 for big properties.

Do you cover the villages round Holsworthy, like Bradworthy and Pyworthy?

Accepted Answer

We do. The an EICR prices on this page already include jobs in Bradworthy, Pyworthy, Sutcombe, Milton Damerel, Holsworthy Beacon. Village visits are usually booked on the same days as Holsworthy work, so the next slot (in 6 days) normally applies to you too.

Question 9

Do I need a full rewire in Holsworthy, or just a new fuse box?

Accepted Answer

Get an EICR first, around £190. It tests the cables themselves, so you'll know whether the old wiring is sound enough for a new board (about £580) or whether a rewire (about £5,200) is really needed. Plenty of Holsworthy homes only need the board.

Question 10

What happens if my EICR comes back unsatisfactory?

Accepted Answer

The report will list C1 (danger now) and C2 (potentially dangerous) items, plus FI where more checking is needed. As a landlord you must get those fixed within 28 days, or sooner if the report says so, then get written confirmation and send it to your tenant and to Torridge District Council within 28 days if they ask.

Question 11

How do I check an electrician is properly registered?

Accepted Answer

Look them up on the NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA register using their name or postcode, not just the logo on a van. Ask for their registration number and a copy of their insurance. A good electrician will happily send both before you book.
