EICR Testing, Emergency Electrical Call-Outs & Trusted Expertise

When it comes to electrical safety, reliability and experience matter. Whether you are a landlord, homeowner, business owner, or managing agent, ensuring your electrical systems are safe, compliant, and professionally maintained is not optional — it is essential.

My name is Iain Jamieson, and I have spent years building a reputation for delivering dependable, compliant, and fast electrical services across Glasgow and surrounding areas. Through my businesses, including WES Electrical and Certificates 4 Landlords, I provide professional EICR testingemergency electrician call-outs, and a complete range of electrical safety services for both domestic and commercial clients.

This article explains what EICR testing involves, why emergency electrical services are critical, and how our online platforms and websites make it easy for clients to reach us when it matters most.


What Is an EICR and Why Is It So Important?

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a formal inspection of the fixed electrical wiring in a property. Its purpose is to identify deterioration, defects, damage, or non-compliance with current electrical safety standards.

EICR testing is not just a box-ticking exercise — it is a vital safety process designed to prevent:

For landlords in Scotland, EICRs are a legal requirement, and failing to have valid certification in place can lead to enforcement action, invalidated insurance, or serious liability if something goes wrong.

At Certificates 4 Landlords, we specialise in EICR testing for rental properties, HMOs, and managed portfolios. Every inspection is carried out thoroughly, professionally, and in line with the latest regulations, ensuring landlords receive clear reports with practical guidance — not confusion.


Clear, Honest EICR Reports You Can Trust

One of the biggest frustrations landlords and property managers face is unclear or over-complicated EICR reports. Our approach is different.

When we carry out an EICR:

  • The inspection is methodical and detailed

  • Observations are explained clearly

  • Coding (C1, C2, C3) is accurate and justified

  • Any remedial work is explained honestly

  • There is no pressure or unnecessary upselling

Because I am directly involved in the standards and processes we use, clients know they are receiving an inspection carried out by professionals who understand both regulations and real-world properties.


Emergency Electrician Call-Outs – 24/7 Response When You Need It

Electrical emergencies rarely happen at a convenient time. Loss of power, burning smells, tripping circuits, or dangerous faults require immediate action.
