What's different about Islington
Period conversions
Split houses often have a shared landlord supply and circuits that cross between flats — a common cause of an unsatisfactory report.
Conservation areas
Much of the borough is conservation area, which limits external work like EV chargers on front walls.

Islington questions
Do you inspect the shared supply in a converted house?+
Yes. We issue a separate report for the landlord's shared supply and each flat.
How quickly can an electrician get to Islington?+
Emergency attendance typically within 60 minutes from our Tower Hamlets base. We give you an honest arrival time on the call before you commit.
Do I need an EICR for my rental in Islington?+
Yes. Private landlords in England need an EICR at least every five years, must give tenants a copy, and must finish any C1, C2 or FI work within 28 days. Your council may also ask for it as part of a licence application.
