A landlord EICR with Renovolt is £200 + VAT (£240 inc VAT) per property across Bridgend, Pencoed, Cowbridge, the Vale of Glamorgan and Cardiff. That covers a full inspection and test of every circuit, photographs of the work, and the written report returned quickly so you can serve it on your tenant inside the legal 14-day window. Larger or unusual properties may be quoted individually, but you will always have the price in writing before any work starts.
| Property | Landlord EICR price |
|---|---|
| Flat or standard house (most rentals) | £200 + VAT (£240 inc), fixed |
| Large house or multiple consumer units | Quoted individually, in writing |
| HMO or commercial unit | Quoted individually, in writing |
What is included in the price?
The £200 + VAT covers the inspection itself, end to end:
- A full visual inspection and live electrical testing of the fixed installation, every circuit, not a sample.
- The fuse board, earthing, bonding, cabling, sockets and switches checked and recorded.
- Each finding coded (C1, C2, C3 or FI) and explained in plain English.
- Photographs of the work and the board.
- The completed, signed EICR returned fast, formatted so you can hand it straight to your tenant.
What it does not include is the cost of any remedial work that the report flags. If a fault is found, you get a separate written quote to put it right, with no pressure and no invented problems.
Why are some quotes cheaper, and should I just take the lowest?
You will see EICRs advertised at very low headline prices online. Be careful. A genuinely thorough EICR takes time, because every circuit has to be tested properly. When a price looks too low to cover that time, the usual catches are:
- A “from” price that only applies to a one-bed flat with two circuits, then climbs steeply for a normal house.
- A fast, light-touch inspection that misses things a proper test would catch.
- A quote that turns into an upsell, with a long list of “essential” remedial work attached.
Renovolt’s price is a real, flat figure for a standard domestic property, and the same person who quotes it, Aled, does the inspection and signs the certificate. You are not handed off to a call centre or a subcontractor.
Does the size or type of property change the cost?
Yes, for larger or more complex properties. The £200 + VAT is the price for a standard domestic rental. A large house with many circuits, a property with multiple consumer units, or a commercial unit will be quoted on its own merits, still in writing and still up front. If you are not sure where your property sits, a quick call gets you a straight answer.
What about a portfolio of rentals?
If you have several rentals, you deal with one electrician for all of them, one consistent report format, and one point of contact. That is genuinely easier to manage than juggling different firms with different paperwork. Talk to Aled about scheduling a batch of inspections together, and he will work out a sensible plan and price across the portfolio.
How fast is the turnaround?
You get a same-day callback Monday to Saturday and a written quote within 24 hours. EICRs are usually booked within days, and the report is returned quickly after the visit, which matters in Wales because you have just 14 days to serve it on your tenant once they are in occupation. Leaving it tight is what gets landlords caught out.
Is the call-out included in the price?
The £200 + VAT is the inspection price for a standard property in the covered area. For anything outside that, such as a more distant property or additional work, the cost is confirmed in writing before you commit, so there are no surprises on the bill. If you have a specific question about your property, just ask when you call and you will get an honest answer.
