New EICR Rules for Lewisham Landlords: 2025-2026 Updates
The November 2025 fine increase
From 1 November 2025, under SI 2025/1043, penalties rise from £30,000 to £40,000 per property under the 2020 Regulations. Applies per property, not per inspection, increasing exposure across portfolios. Serious breaches reach £40,000. Lewisham enforcement relies on records. The EICR certificate Lewisham supports reasonable steps for defence.
Renters' Rights Act May 2026 + Section 21 abolition
The Renters' Rights Act 2025 starts 1 May 2026 and removes Section 21. Section 8 claims require EICR and gas records. Landlord electrical safety certificate lewisham forms are key evidence in possession cases. Lewisham Council and tenants gain wider access to compliance data, increasing scrutiny across private rented homes.
Social Housing Extension
Electrical Safety Standards (Extension to the Social Rented Sector) Regulations 2025 extend EICR duties to social housing. New tenancies will come into effect from 1 November 2025, with existing tenancies by May 2026. The same 5-year BS 7671:2018 cycle applies. EICR report Lewisham is now required across the private and social sectors, raising inspection demand in mixed housing stock.
Lewisham Council's Enforcement Stance
The council uses audits and tenant complaints for enforcement. Missing certificates trigger inspection and action. The Lewisham Council can arrange works and recover costs from landlords. Focus targets repeat breaches and high-risk homes. Electrical compliance remains core in borough checks. Strict penalties apply where EICR obligations are not met.
