EICR in Stanway
Stanway splits in two. Church Lane and Villa Road are older cottages. The new estates add solar and battery that the EICR has to record.
“Ten years on Colchester housing stock and I have seen most of it: terraces where the lighting circuit has been extended once too often, boards fitted before RCDs were standard, new builds with sockets nowhere near the kitchen. I check the earthing, the bonding and whether the supply will carry another load before I price anything, because the age of a house settles nothing on its own.”

How much does an EICR cost in Stanway?
Church Lane and Villa Road reports start at £150, covering inspection, testing and the written schedule. Bypass estate solar isolators are recorded on that same visit. Membership labour off is shown on the invoice.
- Extra circuits on a large new build, a second board or a separate workshop supply add to the starting price.
- Remedial work is not inside the £150 figure.
EICR in Stanway
- An EICR in Stanway starts from £150. Church Lane stair cupboards and Western Bypass solar isolators are written as two stocks.
- Stair cupboard boards and later bonding are the first things the inspection opens.
- Later kitchens and showers on older tails are coded as found, with or without a certificate in the cupboard.
- Solar inverters and batteries have isolators. Those are recorded as generation, not as extra sockets.
Stanway housing and what it means for an EICR
- Older village streets and new generation estates sit a short walk apart. The report names which one you have.
- Boards on the stairs and bonding added years after the house was built.
- A shower on older tails is coded as found. A missing certificate is written as missing.
- Generation meters and battery isolators are named on the report.
What happens on the day
The visit books the house as cottage stock or generation stock, then tests circuit by circuit.
- 01
The board is opened first
Cottage boards and generation isolators are listed before any power is switched off.
- 02
Testing circuit by circuit
Dead tests then live tests. Solar and battery isolators are recorded where they exist.
- 03
Codes before leaving
Each observation is coded in plain words. Remedial work is a later visit if you want it.
Work that often follows a report
Stanway Church Lane boards that will not stay move to a consumer unit visit from £450. New estate solar that needs a later visit uses the solar and battery booking.
Church Lane cottages versus bypass generation
Stanway reports name cottage boards or solar isolators on the cover. Lighting Electrical writes those findings before any remedial price is accepted.

EICR questions in Stanway
Questions about Church Lane cottages, solar on new estates, garage workshops and the £150 starting price.
Does a Church Lane EICR look at solar?+
Only if that cottage has solar. Most Church Lane houses do not. New bypass estates usually do, and those isolators are recorded.
— Valandi Kotorri
What if a Villa Road shower has no certificate?+
The report codes what is found. It does not invent a certificate. Remedial work is a later visit if you want it.
— Valandi Kotorri
Are garage workshop circuits included?+
Yes when they leave the house board. London Road Stanway houses often have that garage.
Is this the Colchester EICR booking?+
No. Colchester is the primary hub. This Stanway test is for Church Lane cottages and new estate generation.
What does membership change?+
Five, ten or fifteen percent off labour and certificates on the £150 EICR.
