EICR Certificate service in Harrow
FLCL covers Harrow and the wider Harrow area. Harrow includes suburban houses, flats, rental properties, HMOs and local commercial premises across north-west London.
An EICR is an inspection and testing report for the fixed electrical installation. The visit considers the consumer unit, circuits, accessories, earthing/bonding and protective devices relevant to the agreed scope.
The report records observations and may use C1, C2, C3 and FI classification codes. Remedial work is separate unless specifically agreed.
For the full London-wide scope, pricing notes and service information, see the main EICR Certificate page.

EICR Certificate considerations in Harrow
For most privately rented homes in England, electrical installations are generally inspected and tested at intervals of no more than five years, or sooner if the previous report requires it. Property-specific duties and any remedial timescales should be checked against the report and current requirements.
The exact service scope depends on the actual property, installed systems, access, occupancy and the conditions found on site. We do not claim a local office in Harrow; this page describes genuine service-area coverage.
Before the visit
- ✓ Provide access to the consumer unit and relevant rooms.
- ✓ Tell us about known faults, recent electrical work or previous reports.
- ✓ Arrange tenant/keyholder access if the landlord or agent will not attend.
- ✓ Expect temporary power interruptions while testing is carried out.
EICR Certificate — the legal framework in Harrow
Under this national law, every fixed electrical installation in a privately rented home in England must be inspected and tested by a qualified, competent person at intervals of no more than 5 years, with the resulting EICR given to the tenant and to the council if requested. All electrical work must meet BS 7671 (the IET Wiring Regulations) — currently the 18th Edition with Amendment 4 (BS 7671:2018+A4:2026), published 15 April 2026. The previous version remains usable only until 15 October 2026, after which Amendment 4 applies exclusively to new work, alterations and periodic inspections.

This national duty applies the same way in Harrow as everywhere else in England — what genuinely varies by area is the local council licensing scheme below, not the underlying safety law.
Local licensing in Harrow
Selective licensing (staged rollout) + Additional HMO licensing status uncertain — verify directly
Selective licensing is rolling out across six wards on staggered 2026 dates. The borough-wide Additional HMO scheme's designation expired 5 August 2026 and a replacement had not been confirmed as of late August 2026 — treat additional-licensing status as unconfirmed and check directly with the council before relying on it, since a small shared house may now need a different licence type than expected.
Source: Harrow Council · checked 28 August 2026. Licensing schemes are renewed, expanded or retired on their own cycles — always confirm the current designation with the council before relying on this for a licensing or legal decision.
