Periodic Inspection Reports (PIR) in Cork
Cork Solar & Electrical carries out Periodic Inspection Reports (PIR) for homeowners, landlords, property management companies and businesses across Cork City and County Cork. A PIR is a thorough inspection and test of an existing electrical installation to assess its condition and safety — identifying any deterioration, defects, damage or dangerous conditions.
Under Irish regulations, rental properties must have a valid electrical inspection certificate before new tenants take up residency. PIRs are also required by many mortgage providers and insurers, and are strongly recommended for any property that hasn't had an electrical inspection in the last ten years. Our RECI registered electricians carry out every inspection to the required ETCI standard, and a full written report is issued on completion.
We cover Cork City, Mallow, Fermoy, Macroom, Clonakilty, Bantry and all of County Cork. Contact us today for a free, no-obligation quote on your periodic inspection.

Why You Need a Periodic Inspection Report
A PIR isn't just a box-ticking exercise — it's a critical safety check that protects your property, tenants and legal standing.
Required by Law for Rentals
Landlords in Ireland are legally required to ensure rental properties meet electrical safety standards. A valid PIR from a RECI registered electrician demonstrates compliance and is required for RTB tenancy registration and local authority inspections.
Peace of Mind for Homeowners
Older homes — particularly those built before the 1990s — often have wiring that has deteriorated or no longer meets modern safety standards. A PIR gives you a clear picture of your installation's condition and identifies any remedial works needed before issues become dangerous.
Required for Insurance & Sales
Many home insurance providers and mortgage lenders now require a current PIR as part of the application or renewal process. Having a valid report on file removes a potential obstacle when selling your property or renewing your home insurance policy.
