EICRs in Hove.

Hove's housing mix is built around Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats, seafront apartments and family houses. That mix matters when you book an EICR: older conversions often have more circuits than a modern flat, and some have more than one consumer unit serving the same property.

More circuits and extra consumer units mean more of the installation to inspect and test, so they affect both the time on site and how many circuits the standard price covers. Tell us the property type, the number of bedrooms and how many consumer units you know of when you book, and we'll confirm the scope and the final price before the visit.

We cover BN3 across Hove.

Central Hove is in Brighton & Hove's selective licensing scheme from 20 October 2026, and licence conditions include keeping a valid electrical safety report. Our guide explains the wards, the dates and what we can get ready for you. Read the selective licensing guide.

We had an extension which needed to be repaired as previous builder did not construct correctly. Aran came into the project and ripped out the whole roof. He was clear and precise with the work, whilst managing to keep the project within budget and fitting our timeline. We can't recommend him enough!

Aran and his team built me a custom wardrobe, shelves and storage space for our growing family. After receiving quotes from places like Sharps, his team achieved the same spec for half the price! Thanks lads

I used Framework for a pretty strange but turned out brilliant Argentine-style parrilla/BBQ area in my back yard. He was a very friendly guy and would definitely recommend. Thanks Aran

Your questions

EICR FAQs in Hove.

For the full set of EICR questions we're asked — cost, how long an inspection takes, how long a report stays valid, what unsatisfactory means and whether tenants need to be home — see the main EICR page.

How much does an EICR cost in Hove?

£149 for a studio or 1-bed flat, £179 for a 2-bed flat, £229 for a 3-bed house and from £299 for a 4+ bed property or small HMO. Flats include up to 6 circuits and houses up to 10, with additional circuits at £15 each — worth keeping in mind for Hove's older conversions, which often have more circuits or more than one consumer unit. The final price is confirmed before you book.

My flat is in a converted Victorian or Edwardian building — is that a problem?

No. Conversions are a regular part of our Hove work. Older conversions often have more circuits, or more than one consumer unit, so tell us the building type and what you know about the installation when booking. We check the installation serving your property and agree any communal-area requirements separately.

Does my Hove rental need an EICR for selective licensing?

Central Hove is in Brighton & Hove's selective licensing scheme from 20 October 2026, and licence conditions include a valid electrical safety report. If your property sits in a designated ward, an up-to-date EICR is part of getting it ready. For the licence application itself, check Brighton & Hove City Council's guidance.
