What we do

• • Change a switch or socket to a full rewire

  • All jobs, whether large or small, are handled with professionalism and attention to detail.

• Design, install, inspect, test and certify. Every job:-

  • Design - is planned on paper. Calculations are made before a job is started and are included with the final paperwork.

    • Electricians can't now say, "We've always done it that way". They must now show mathematically why they're doing it that way.

  • Install - is undertaken to minimise the level of disruption and visual impact.

  • Inspect - is inspected to ensure the job has been completed safely and to the Regulations.

  • Test - has the full range of electrical tests after the job has been inspected.

  • Certify - has the appropriate Certificate issued.

• Reports and drawings included

  • Reports - are issued to highlight subsequently discovered areas of concern, both major and minor.

  • Drawings - where a rewire is undertaken, drawings are provided to show where new cables run.

• Domestic Electrical Installation Condition Report - replaced the now obsolete Periodic Inspection Report.

  • When buying or selling a property.

  • For tenanted properties. See Landlord Services.

  • Peace of mind for home owners.

• All work to BS7671:2018, 18th Edition

  • Work completed to BS7671:2018, 18th Edition is evidence that the work is completed to a satisfactory and safe level.

• 18th Edition wiring regs

  • As BS7671:2018, 18th Edition.

  • Note - some electricians are still working to the earlier Regulations. Avoid!!

• NICEIC registered

  • NICEIC is one of the main bodies which oversees continual training and qualifications of members. My number is D113872.

• Part P qualified

  • The Building Regulations comprise 14 sections or "Parts" with Part P being regulations concerned with electrical safety. All new builds, alterations and additions must comply with these regulations.

  • Anyone can undertake electrical work so long as the work complies with the Regulations. However, most electrical jobs require the resultant work to be certified. Only Part P qualified electricians can certify work.

  • Avoid using unqualified people, as uncertified work contravenes the Building Regulations. This will come to light when the property is sold at which time the work will need to be checked prior to certification. If work cannot be certified, it will need to be brought into line with the Regulations which may require the new wiring to be replaced. This would probably cost more than the cost of a qualified electrician in the first place! In addition:-

  • Uncertified work will also land the householder a hefty fine, whether the work is safe or not. Note - the person who does the work - the electrician - isn't fined (obviously unless he's the owner of the property)!

  • A Part P qualified electrician cannot certify another electrician's work, once the work has been completed!
