Age alone does not condemn an installation. Plenty of older Caerphilly wiring tests perfectly well; some newer work does not. It is written into the report either way, so nothing is hidden.
If you have had conflicting advice, it is usually because someone quoted without checking certificate expiry dates spread across the year with no. Two electricians looking at the same readings tend to agree. Anyone testing properly will reach the same conclusion.
The regulations set the standard; remedial works from a previous EICR never completed sets the effort required to meet it at your particular address in Caerphilly County Borough Council. It rarely changes the price, but it does change the plan.
Where previous work has no certification behind it, we test it rather than take it on trust. We would say the same to a family member.
If the property is tenanted, the visit is arranged around access rather than around us, which usually means confirming times with whoever holds the keys. You will get the plain version, not the technical one, unless you ask.
We work to the current edition of BS 7671 and note where an older installation departs from it and why that matters. Remedial works from a previous is the part worth confirming rather than assuming.
Anything we find that is outside this scope gets raised with you rather than added to the invoice. The paperwork is written so a surveyor, a letting agent or another electrician can check it.
