Practical points

On the day

A few practical points that make a visit go smoothly. Tell us about anything unusual when you enquire.

  1. Power off for part of the visit

    Most electrical work means switching off a circuit, or the whole supply, for a time. Tell us about anything that must stay on, such as medical equipment, freezers or IT.

  2. Access

    We need to reach the consumer unit (fuse board) and the rooms involved. For rented or managed property, tell us who arranges access.

  3. Parking and pets

    Let us know about parking restrictions or permits, and keep pets away from the work area.

  4. Testing before handover

    New and altered circuits are tested before they are put back into use, and the results are recorded.

What you can hold us to

  1. A written quote first

    You see what is included before you decide. Changes are discussed and agreed with you before they happen.

  2. Straight answers

    If a job is outside what we do, or we cannot do it when you need it, we tell you so you can make other plans.

  3. Tested and documented

    New and altered work is tested before it is put into use, and you receive the certificate or report that applies.
