FAQs

What is an EICR before you book?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a safety check of fixed wiring and circuits. It identifies potential hazards and highlights items that need attention. Homeowners may choose one for reassurance, and landlords often require it for rented properties.
Will I receive a certificate after the work?
Some electrical work requires testing and certification, especially new circuits or consumer unit changes. Ask what documents will be provided and keep them with your property records. Certificates can be useful for future sales or insurance queries.
How long will an electrical job take?
Timescales depend on the scope and access. A single fitting can be quick, while new circuits or rewiring takes longer. an electrician can estimate the duration once they understand the job and any access limits.
What information helps with a quote?
Share the job details, property type, number of points or circuits and any access issues. Photos of the consumer unit or the area can help. If you want the Electrician to supply fittings, mention that too.
Can you add or move sockets and switches before you book?
Yes. Electricians can add or move sockets and switches, but the approach depends on existing wiring routes and access. Some jobs require chasing walls or using surface trunking to keep cables protected. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.
Do you install new lighting?
Electricians can install new lighting points, replace fittings or add dimmer switches. They will check the wiring and confirm what is compatible with existing circuits. Tell them the type of fitting you want and where it will be placed.
