What to expect from an EICR in New Southgate
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 Brunswick Park Road, the census neighbourhood used here, only 31% of homes are flats, against 54% across London. Council tax records for the same area show 44% of homes built between the wars and 16% before 1919, with the rest spread fairly evenly over the later periods. No single pattern fits every home. A house built between the wars may have been rewired in stages, while one built since 2000 usually has wide RCD protection. The EICR records what each installation actually has, and codes each shortfall from the current standard by risk.
Family houses set the pattern. Semi-detached and terraced houses make up 33% of homes each, both well above London's 19% and 21%, and 41% of homes have three bedrooms, against 30%. Owner-occupiers are 63% of households, and private renters 22%, below London's 30%. For an owner, an EICR is not a legal duty, but it is a sound check before buying, selling or starting building work. For a landlord, the whole house is one installation, and every consumer unit in it goes into the same report.
A house of three bedrooms or more has more circuits than a flat, so the visit runs longer, and it helps to know how many consumer units there are before the day. No listed buildings are recorded within 300 m of the centre of New Southgate. N11 also runs into Enfield and Haringey. The inspection is identical across all three councils, but the council that receives the electrician's written confirmation after remedial work depends on the exact address, and it must arrive, with the tenant's copy, within 28 days of completion.
Booking a visit in New Southgate
Getting in
Someone needs to let the electrician in. We need every room, the consumer unit and any loft, garage or outbuilding that has power.
Tenants
If the home is let, give us your tenant's name and number when you book and we'll agree the time with them directly.
Parking
If parking is restricted near the property, tell us when you book and whether a visitor permit is available.
Licensing and landlord rules in Barnet
From Barnet Council's own pages, checked 13 October 2026.
Barnet licenses shared homes across the borough until 27 October 2027. The council has proposed selective licensing for 10 wards, including Golders Green, Hendon, West Hendon, Colindale and Finchley Church End, but no selective scheme is in force yet.
On the Barnet side of New Southgate, addresses are mostly in Friern Barnet and Brunswick Park wards. Barnet Council has no selective licensing, so a home let to a single household there doesn't need one. Part of the area is in Enfield: New Southgate ward is inside Enfield's selective licensing area, so a single-household let there generally needs a Enfield licence. Ward boundaries don't follow postcodes, so check the exact address with the council.
Barnet's licence conditions require a current electrical test certificate, less than 5 years old, on request.
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 New Southgate
How much does an EICR cost in New Southgate?
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 Barnet?
Only if it's shared, for now. Smaller HMOs need an additional licence anywhere in Barnet until 27 October 2027. Selective licensing for 10 wards has been proposed but is not in force.
Part of my house in N11 was rewired and part wasn't. How will the EICR deal with that?
It inspects and tests both parts as one installation. Newer circuits are judged by the same standard as older ones. Where old and new meet, the electrician checks the connections, the earthing and the protection on each circuit. If an older circuit lacks RCD protection where the current standard expects it, that is recorded with a code, usually C2 or C3 depending on the risk.
How soon can you visit New Southgate?
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.
