I think the time scale between the initial and later EICRs need taking into consideration as to whether a retest is required.
An EICR is not a cert, though. Did you actually certify the work you carried out as required by BS7671?Did the remedials as I was going along and issued satisfactory certs.
That really isn't the correct way for it to be done, however.Sorry, not sure if my original post confused some of you. When I say reissue EICR I don't mean carry out another EICR and charge again, I mean rewrite the original certificate without the codes and new results (r1 + r2, rcd test etc) for work carried out to rectify faults

It's not being pedantic though - it's important to understand that you are NOT certifying any work you have done as required by BS7671 by using an EICR.I do apologise most humbly for not using the correct terminology, it is absolutely unforgivable of me to call an EICR a cert.
What's the weather like over there in pedant corner.
I already told you.Again I'll ask you, how would you go about it?

What you are missing is that there is no logical reason to issue a second EICR. The first one outlines the faults etc. found, and the subsequent certification proves that it all has been dealt with.There does not seem to be any other logical way to deal with this unless I am missing something
A thought provoking insight, I will have to think about that. However because there are about 200 tenants and many want a certificate for their unit for insurance purposes that would be the reason we issue a second satisfactory certificate. We cannot ask the CEO to give each client 300 pages of EICR saying unsatisfactory with attendant corrections noted on other certs. to give to their insurance company. We give The front pages and their unit. Any way around that ? I could see it on a single domestic....but messy.What you are missing
