About Sheaworks

Sheaworks Ltd is a family-run electrical contractor founded in 2014 by Jack Shea, a qualified electrician, and Georgia Shea.

EICR Key Facts

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is an inspection of the fixed wiring, circuits and electrical accessories in a property. It checks for overloaded circuits, shock and fire risks, defective wiring, missing earthing or bonding, damaged fittings and exposed live parts.

C2Potentially dangerous. Urgent remedial action required.
C3Improvement recommended.
FIFurther investigation required without delay.
  • Landlords in England: under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, most private landlords must have the electrical installation inspected and tested at least every five years and give a copy of the report to tenants.
  • Homeowners: an EICR is generally recommended at least every ten years, and when buying a property.
  • Commercial premises: inspection intervals depend on the type of premises and use, commonly every five years or more often.
