Fraserburgh's Local EICR Specialist

Local response, NICEIC certified, Aberdeenshire Council recognised.

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is the formal inspection of all fixed electrical wiring in a property. Under Scotland's Repairing Standard, every privately rented property in Fraserburgh and the wider AB43 area must have a satisfactory EICR at least every 5 years. Aberdeenshire Council can request a copy at any time and enforces alongside the First Tier Tribunal.

Faithful Spark Electricians is your local NICEIC approved contractor, holding the City & Guilds 2391-52 (Inspection & Testing) qualifications specifically required for EICR work. Every certificate carries our NICEIC registration number and is legally valid for letting agents, councils, and the Private Rented Housing Panel. From March 2024, the Repairing Standard also requires RCD protection on every circuit, which means many of Fraserburgh's older council-era boards now fail the test until they are upgraded.

EICR FAQs

Common questions about EICRs in Fraserburgh.

Don't see your question? Call 07304 027013 or email us and we'll come back inside the hour during business hours.

How much does an EICR cost in Fraserburgh?

Fraserburgh EICRs start at £150 for a 1 bedroom flat. A 2 bedroom property is £150 to £255, a 3 bedroom is £150 to £315, and a 4 bedroom is £150 to £375. Landlord EICRs are £150 to £350 per property. Commercial fixed wire tests start at £300. No travel surcharge for AB43 town addresses.

I'm a landlord in Fraserburgh with four properties. Can you do them all in one day?

Depending on property sizes, often yes. Two or three properties in one day is typically achievable. Block bookings are discounted and we provide a single invoice with master-list status. Call 07304 027013 to discuss your portfolio.

Is an EICR legally required for my Fraserburgh rental property?

Yes. Under Scotland's Repairing Standard (Housing (Scotland) Act 2006), every privately rented property must have a satisfactory EICR at least every 5 years. Aberdeenshire Council enforces this and can request a copy at any time. From March 2024, RCD protection on every circuit is also mandatory.

My Fraserburgh property is in Broadsea, an old council house. What issues might the EICR find?

Older council properties around Kirkton, Broadsea, and Dalrymple often have original or once updated fuse boards without RCD protection, outdated earthing, and ageing socket outlets. The EICR will identify each issue with a clear severity code. Faithful Spark can quote for remedial work at the time, often resolved during a single follow up visit.

Do you cover Rosehearty, Sandhaven, and St Combs?

Yes. These coastal villages north and west of Fraserburgh are within our service area. A small travel charge may apply beyond AB43 town boundary, but most outlying villages can be combined with another local job to avoid the surcharge. Call 07304 027013 to confirm.

How do I know the EICR certificate you issue is legally valid?

All EICRs are carried out by a City & Guilds 2391-52 qualified inspector working under NICEIC approval. The certificate carries Faithful Spark's NICEIC registration number, verifiable at niceic.com. It is accepted by Aberdeenshire Council, the First Tier Tribunal, all Scottish letting agents, and insurance providers.

How long is an EICR valid for in Scotland?

5 years for rented properties under the Repairing Standard. For owner occupiers, 10 years is the standard recommendation, or before any major renovation.

What if my Fraserburgh EICR comes back Unsatisfactory?

Faithful Spark walk you through every coded item in plain English. C1 defects must be made safe immediately. C2 defects must be remedied within 28 days under the Repairing Standard. We quote separately for any remedial work, in writing, before any work begins. Most remedials are routine and arranged within 5 to 10 working days.

My Fraserburgh property was rewired in 2002. Does it still need an EICR?

Yes if it is rented. An EICR is required for all rented properties every 5 years regardless of when the wiring was installed. For owner occupiers, 10 years from the last inspection or rewire is the standard recommendation.

Can you send the EICR directly to my Fraserburgh letting agent?

Yes. Provide your agent's email when booking and we will send the digital certificate to them at the same time as you. We work regularly with letting agents across Aberdeenshire.
