Additions and alterations to existing installations, and new wiring for extensions, loft conversions, garages and outbuildings.

Rewiring and consumer units

Older properties often have wiring and protective devices that no longer meet current standards. We carry out full and partial rewires and replace older fuse boards with modern consumer units.

  • Full rewires, planned around your occupation of the property where possible
  • Partial rewires of individual circuits or floors
  • Consumer unit (fuse board) replacement with RCD or RCBO protection
  • Surge protection and arc fault detection where specified
  • Upgrading of main earthing and bonding
  • Notification to building control and issue of the compliance certificate

A consumer unit replacement is notifiable work under Part P in England. We notify building control on your behalf so that you receive the compliance certificate for your records and any future sale of the property.

Inspection, testing and certification

Periodic inspection tells you whether an installation remains safe to use. We carry out inspections and provide the resulting reports and certificates.

  • Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) for homeowners and landlords
  • Pre-purchase inspections before you buy a property
  • Minor Works and Electrical Installation Certificates for work we carry out
  • Remedial work following a report, quoted separately so you can decide what to do
  • Fault diagnosis for tripping circuits, intermittent faults and nuisance tripping

Landlords in England are required to have the electrical installation in rented property inspected and tested at least every five years and to provide the report to tenants and, on request, the local authority.

Electric vehicle charge point installation

A home charge point needs a dedicated circuit with the correct protection, earthing arrangement and load assessment. We install charge points and the supply they need.

  • Installation and commissioning of the charge point
  • Load management where the incoming supply is limited
  • Notification of the installation to the distribution network operator where required

Small commercial premises

For shops, offices, salons, small workshops and similar premises we provide installation, maintenance and testing on the same basis as our domestic work.

  • Power and lighting for fit-outs and refurbishments
  • Dedicated circuits for commercial equipment and machinery
  • Periodic inspection and testing of the fixed installation
  • Emergency lighting installation and testing
  • Portable appliance testing of equipment in use

Certification and paperwork

Every piece of electrical installation work we complete is inspected and tested, and you receive the relevant certificate: an Electrical Installation Certificate for new circuits and significant alterations, or a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate for smaller additions. Inspections of existing installations are reported on an Electrical Installation Condition Report. Where work is notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations in England, we arrange notification to the relevant building control body so that the compliance certificate is issued to you.

Keep these documents safe. They are evidence that the work was carried out to the required standard and are commonly requested by solicitors, insurers, letting agents and prospective buyers.
