What to expect from an EICR in Harringay
An EICR tests the fixed wiring, consumer unit, sockets, switches and lights, and codes anything that falls short as C1, C2, C3 or FI. Here's what the local housing means for yours.
In Harringay East, the ONS census area used here, council tax records show housing unusually uniform in age. Hardly any homes were built between the wars (under 1%) or since 2000 (2%), and most date from before 1919. In homes this old, little if any of the first wiring survives. What matters for an EICR is how the later work was done. The electrician checks whether rewiring was complete or partial, whether the consumer unit gives RCD protection where the current standard expects it, and how earthing and main bonding compare with it.
Terraced houses are the most common type of home, at 35% against 21% across London, and 25% of homes are flats in converted houses, more than twice the London share. Private renting is high too, at 44% of households against 30%. For a whole house, the EICR covers everything from the meter to the loft and any extension. For a flat in a converted terrace, it covers that flat's own installation, and the landlord supply for the hall is a separate one. Knowing which you have shapes how long the visit takes and where the electrician needs to go.
The one listed building within 300 m of the centre of Harringay is The Salisbury Public House, grade II*. For most homes here, the practical points are about layout. In a terrace split into flats, meters are often grouped by the front door or under the stairs, and knowing which serves your flat saves time. A whole house with a loft conversion or rear extension has more circuits to test, sometimes from a second consumer unit. Certificates from earlier rewiring help the electrician see which parts of the house were done when.

Licensing and landlord rules in Haringey
From Haringey Council's own pages, checked 13 October 2026.
Haringey licenses shared homes across the borough until 16 June 2029, and single-household lets in 14 wards in the east and centre of the borough, including Tottenham, Seven Sisters, Harringay, Noel Park and Bounds Green, until 17 November 2027.
Around Harringay, most addresses are in Hermitage & Gardens and Harringay wards, both inside the selective licensing area, so a home let to a single household there generally needs a licence. Ward boundaries don't follow postcodes, so check the exact address with the council.
Haringey asks for an EICR with licence applications.
Wherever you let in England, the Electrical Safety Standards Regulations require an EICR at least every 5 years, or sooner if the report says so. Give a copy to existing tenants within 28 days of the inspection and to new tenants before they move in. Any remedial work or further investigation the report requires must be done within 28 days, or sooner if it says so, and written confirmation that it's finished goes to the tenant and the council within 28 days of completion.

Questions about EICRs in Harringay
How much does an EICR cost in Harringay?
From £142.80 including VAT for a studio flat to £250.80 for a house with 5 or more bedrooms. The price is fixed when you book, there's no call-out fee, and you pay when your report is ready.
Do I need a licence to let a property in Haringey?
In the east and centre of the borough, yes. Selective licensing covers 14 Haringey wards until 17 November 2027, and shared homes need an additional licence anywhere in the borough.
My Harringay terraced house was rewired in stages: will the EICR show which parts are older?
It shows how each part performs, which usually reveals where the stages meet. The electrician tests every circuit and inspects a sample of accessories, cable types and connections. Older sections often stand out by the type of cable or accessory used, or by missing RCD protection where the current standard expects it. The report codes each problem by risk, whatever its age. Certificates from earlier work help fill in the history.
How soon can you visit Harringay?
Online booking shows days up to 2 weeks ahead. Standard arrival windows are 9am to 12pm or 12pm to 4pm, Monday to Friday; after 4pm and weekends are on request and may carry an additional charge. Pick the day that suits you or your tenant and we'll confirm the time. If you're up against a tenancy deadline, call 0203 811 8331.
Will you test a garage, shed or garden room?
Yes, if it's supplied from the house's electrics. Tell us about it when you book so we allow the time, and it's included in the report with the rest of the installation.
