Newport has one of the biggest rental markets I cover, from the estates of Duffryn, Ringland and Malpas to flats and lets in the city centre near the Transporter Bridge, and with that much rented housing there is steady demand for landlord EICRs at change of tenancy and renewal. I carry out these inspections across Newport, testing the consumer unit, circuits, sockets and switches against the current wiring regulations, then giving you a clear report on the condition of the installation. Whether you have one buy-to-let or a small portfolio spread across different parts of the city, I can work around your tenants' schedules or fit inspections into the gap between one tenancy ending and the next beginning, so void periods are not extended by paperwork.
Housing stock across Newport varies a lot, from older terraces near the city centre to inter-war and post-war estate housing in areas like Ringland and Malpas, and each type brings its own common faults, whether that is an ageing consumer unit, poor earthing or wiring that has been added to over the years without proper certification. I test the whole installation properly rather than rushing a visual check, so you get a report you can rely on if it is ever queried by a tenant, letting agent or the council. If any remedial work is needed I explain it clearly and price it honestly, and I can usually get it done quickly so your certificate is not held up. Every property differs, so I always agree a fixed written price with you before starting any work.

Your questions, answered
How much does a landlord EICR cost in Newport?
It varies with the property, but broadly £150 to £300 for a typical home, more for larger properties or HMOs. Every job and every house differs, so I always agree one fixed written price before I start.
Do you cover both houses and flats?
Yes, I test houses, flats and shared lets across Newport, including older terraces near the centre and estate housing in areas like Ringland and Malpas.
What if my property fails the inspection?
I explain exactly what needs fixing, give you a fair fixed price for the remedial work and can often carry it out on the same visit so your certificate is not delayed.
