FAQs

Do I need a qualified Electrician for small jobs when planning the work?
Electrical work can be risky and some tasks are controlled by regulation. A qualified Electrician will isolate power safely, test the work and provide any required paperwork. For most jobs, professional help is the safest route.
What is an EICR?
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 when planning the work?
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?
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.
