Remedial Electrical Work Completed in London – EICR Repairs, Fuse Board Replacement & Safety Upgrades by Electricians4London

Electricians4London recently carried out remedial electrical work following an EICR, completing essential safety upgrades to bring a property’s electrical installation up to the required standard.

After an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) highlighted areas needing attention, our electricians attended site and completed the required repairs and improvements efficiently. This included a fuse board replacement, installation of a mains smoke alarm, and earth bonding to the gas meter to improve overall electrical safety and compliance.

We regularly complete EICR remedial work across London, helping homeowners, landlords, letting agents and property managers resolve electrical issues quickly and professionally.

EICR inspections are designed to identify electrical faults, risks, and non-compliances within a property. In this case, the report highlighted areas that required remedial work to improve safety and meet the expected standard for the electrical installation.

Typical reasons remedial work is needed after an EICR include:

• Lack of modern circuit protection at the consumer unit

• Inadequate earthing or bonding

• Outdated electrical components

• Missing safety devices such as smoke alarms

• Faults that could present a risk to occupants or tenants

By completing the required remedial work, the installation becomes safer and more reliable, giving the property owner peace of mind.

We replaced the existing fuse board with a modern consumer unit to improve protection, reliability, and fault response. A consumer unit upgrade is one of the most important improvements after an EICR, especially in older properties.

Work included:

• Safe isolation and removal of the old fuse board

• Installation of a new consumer unit with modern protection

• Clear circuit labelling for easy identification

• Full electrical testing once installed

• As part of improving the property’s safety standards, we installed a mains powered smoke alarm. Mains smoke alarms provide reliable protection and are commonly required in rental properties and safety-focused upgrades.

  Work included:

  • Supply and installation of mains smoke alarm

  • Testing to ensure correct operation

  • Advice provided to the customer on ongoing safety checks

We also installed main protective bonding to the gas meter, improving earthing and helping ensure electrical safety throughout the property.

Correct earth bonding is essential because it:

• Reduces risk from fault currents

• Helps the electrical system operate safely

• Supports compliance with electrical safety regulations

• Is commonly flagged in EICR reports as an urgent improvement

This upgrade is especially important in older homes or where bonding is missing, undersized, or incorrectly installed.

Once all remedial work was completed, we carried out electrical testing to confirm the property was safe and the improvements met the required standard.

The customer received the relevant certification and documentation for the completed work, which is particularly useful for:

• Landlords needing compliance documents

• Letting agents managing rental properties

• Property sales and electrical safety evidence

• Insurance and maintenance records
