What to expect from an EICR in Perivale
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.
Bilton Road is the census neighbourhood behind Perivale's figures, and 52% of its homes have three bedrooms, against 30% across London. Council tax records show under 1% built before 1919 and under 1% from 1945 to 1972. Most homes went up between the wars. Wiring first installed before 1939 is far past its expected life. Most homes here will have been rewired at least once, though not always completely. What remains ranges from a full rewire with a recent consumer unit to a partial one that left older circuits, or an old fuse box, in service.
Semi-detached and terraced houses each make up 38% of homes, against 19% and 21% across London. A house of this type usually has one supply and one consumer unit, often under the stairs or by the front door. The electrician checks the earthing arrangement and the bonding to the gas and water pipes where they enter. Older bonding can fall short of the current standard. Extensions and loft conversions add circuits of their own, sometimes on a second board, and they are tested along with the rest of the house.
The count covers only 300 m around the centre of Perivale, so check your own building's status before repairs are planned. Ownership is high: 61% of households own their home, against 45% across London, and 34% rent privately. A let house needs its next inspection no more than 5 years later, or earlier where the report sets a shorter interval. An older consumer unit is worth mentioning at booking. A board with rewirable fuses or no RCDs tells the electrician what to expect. It also helps you plan if the report recommends an upgrade.
Booking a visit in Perivale

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 Ealing
From Ealing Council's own pages, checked 13 October 2026.
Ealing licenses shared homes across the borough until 31 March 2027 (a renewal was consulted on in 2026), and single-household lets in 15 of its pre-2022 wards, including Southall, Acton, Greenford, Northolt and Perivale. Because those wards were redrawn in 2022, check the exact address on Ealing's map.
Ealing asks for an EICR dated within the last 5 years, and marked satisfactory, 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 Perivale
How much does an EICR cost in Perivale?
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 Ealing?
Possibly. Shared homes need an additional licence anywhere in Ealing, and single-household lets need a selective licence in large parts of Southall, Acton, Greenford, Northolt and Perivale. Ealing's postcode checker gives the answer for an exact address.
I live in my Perivale house. Do I need an EICR at all?
There is no legal duty for an owner-occupier. The rule of an EICR at least every 5 years applies to privately rented homes. An EICR is still a sensible check on a house of this age, especially before building work, after buying, or if the board is old or circuits keep tripping. It gives you a coded record of what needs attention now and what can wait.
How soon can you visit Perivale?
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.
