Standards and compliance
Electrical installation
Electrical installation work is carried out in accordance with BS 7671 (Requirements for Electrical Installations, the IET Wiring Regulations) as currently amended. On completion, installations are inspected and tested and the appropriate certificate is issued: an Electrical Installation Certificate for new circuits and significant alterations, or a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate for smaller additions and alterations.
In England, certain domestic electrical work is “notifiable” under Part P of the Building Regulations, including new circuits, consumer unit replacements and work in special locations such as bathrooms. Where work is notifiable it is notified to the relevant building control body so that the required compliance certificate is issued to you.
Appliance and equipment repair
Repairs are carried out on electrical and mechanical components using appropriate replacement parts. After a repair the appliance is functionally tested and, where appropriate, electrically tested for earth continuity and insulation before it is returned to service. We work on electric appliances only. Gas cookers, hobs and boilers must be worked on by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and we will tell you if a job falls outside what we can do.
Health and safety
We carry out a risk assessment before starting work, isolate and prove dead before working on circuits, and follow safe-isolation procedures throughout. Waste, including old cable, fittings and replaced parts, is disposed of responsibly.
We do not display accreditation logos on this website. If you require evidence of insurance, qualifications or scheme membership for a particular job, please ask and we will provide the relevant documents directly.
