3. Full & Partial Rewiring
If your property has outdated or damaged wiring, it may be time to consider rewiring. Worn-out cables can increase the risk of electric shocks, fires, or failure during an EICR inspection. We carry out both full and partial rewiring in line with UK wiring regulations (BS 7671).
Signs your property needs rewiring:

Cables covered in black rubber or lead

Buzzing or humming sockets

Lack of RCD protection

4. Landlord Safety Certificates – EICRs
Landlords are legally required to obtain an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) at least every five years for their rental properties. RCD Electrical offers certified EICR inspections that assess the safety of your fixed wiring and highlight any potential issues.
After our inspection, we provide:
-
A digital copy of the EICR certificate

Clear identification of C1, C2, and FI codes

Recommendations for remedial action (if necessary)

Follow-up repair services (if required)
