Remedial Works After Failed EICR in Rochester

Rochester's older housing stock produces a consistent set of EICR observations that require remedial works. In the Victorian and Edwardian terraces that make up much of the city's private rented stock, C2 observations typically combine missing RCD protection on key circuits, insulation resistance degradation in ring circuits that have been in continuous service since the 1950s or 1960s, and bonding deficiencies to gas and water services.

For Rochester's converted flats — where Victorian townhouses near the cathedral and High Street have been divided into two or more residential units — remedial works sometimes involve a degree of complexity in separating circuit arrangements that were never designed for independent multi-occupancy. Shared consumer units or circuits that supply areas across more than one flat require careful remediation.

All works are quoted in writing before being authorised. Satisfactory documentation is issued on completion — giving landlords the evidence they need to demonstrate compliance within the 28-day statutory deadline.
