What to expect from an EICR in Woodside Park
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.
Woodside Park is also the census neighbourhood behind these figures, with 3,530 households. Detached houses make up 10% of its homes, against 6% across London, alongside 18% semi-detached and 14% terraced. Council tax records give 1945 to 1972 as the busiest building period, at 30% of homes, followed by 1973 to 1999 at 21% and 1919 to 1939 at 19%. A house from any of those periods will usually have been updated at least once. Later work tends to arrive piece by piece: a consumer unit change, a kitchen circuit, an extension. The EICR tests how those pieces fit and codes every shortfall by risk.
Size is the second thing to note. 22% of homes have four or more bedrooms, above London's 18%, and 51% of households own their home, against 45%. A larger house built after the war has often been extended, with a loft conversion or a kitchen extension, each adding circuits. These are sometimes fed from a second consumer unit, or from a spare slot in the original one. Either arrangement can be sound, but each needs testing. The report shows whether the added work has the RCD protection the current standard expects.
Flats still make up 58% of homes, most of them in purpose-built blocks at 48%. A flat in a block from 1945 to 1972 may have had its wiring renewed in a building-wide upgrade, or flat by flat as owners changed. Two neighbours on one landing can therefore have very different installations, and the EICR judges yours on its own. If you hold certificates for earlier work, such as a consumer unit change, keep them with the report. None of the buildings within 300 m of the centre of Woodside Park is listed.
Booking a visit in Woodside Park
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.
Around Woodside Park, most addresses are in Totteridge & Woodside ward. Barnet Council has no selective licensing, so a home let to a single household there doesn't need one. 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 Woodside Park
How much does an EICR cost in Woodside Park?
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.
My Woodside Park house has a second consumer unit for an extension. Is that a problem?
No, not in itself. Extensions and loft conversions are often wired from their own consumer unit, and the EICR covers it along with the original one. The electrician checks the cable feeding the second unit, that its protective devices suit the circuits they serve, and that RCD protection is in place where the current standard expects it. Anything that falls short is coded by risk in the report.
How soon can you visit Woodside Park?
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.
