Electrician Finchley and Hendon: EICR and Consumer Units

Finchley and Hendon sit in the middle of the borough of Barnet, with a mix of 1930s semis, large Edwardian houses, mansion blocks along the main roads and plenty of converted flats. Many homes have been extended at the back and into the loft, and a lot of them are now let. This page covers EICR certificates, consumer units and EV chargers across N3, N12, N2 and NW4.

Areas we cover

We work across Finchley Central, Church End, North Finchley, East Finchley, West Finchley, Woodside Park, Hendon, Hendon Central, West Hendon, Colindale, Mill Hill East and Golders Green edge, as part of our wider Barnet coverage.

EICR for local landlords

Private landlords must have an EICR at least every five years and give a copy to the tenant before they move in. We test every circuit, the consumer unit, earthing and bonding, and code anything found as C1, C2, C3 or FI. EICRs start from £100 and the certificate is emailed the same day. Our landlord electrical checklist for a new tenancy covers the other paperwork too.

What we often find in Finchley and Hendon homes

• Rear extensions and loft conversions wired on to the original circuits.
• Older consumer units with a single RCD, so one fault switches off half the house.
• Garages and outbuildings fed with unsuitable cable.
• Flats in converted houses with shared or unlabelled circuits.
• Electric showers upgraded without checking the cable size.

Consumer units and EV chargers

With so many drives in Finchley, Mill Hill and Hendon, home car chargers are a popular upgrade. We check the supply, earthing and consumer unit first, and upgrade the board where needed so everything passes on one certificate.
