Offices and shared workspaces — electrical work in Pontypridd

Pontypridd sits inside the area we cover daily, so offices and shared workspaces here is routine work rather than a special trip.
We work to the current edition of BS 7671 and note where an older installation departs from it and why that matters. That detail is what a proper survey is for.
A written record matters as much as the work. Anything we find at a CF37–CF38 address is documented in a form you can hand to someone else. That is one reason our price does not move after the survey.
There is no single right answer for offices and shared workspaces — the correct one depends on the age of the installation and how it has been altered since. The alternative — ignoring fixed wire testing, board labelling — tends to cost more later.
Photographs of anything hidden are taken as standard, because you should not have to take our word for what is above the ceiling. It is the kind of detail that separates a tidy job from a callback.
The most useful thing you can tell us on the first call is what changed immediately before you noticed the problem. If it turns out not to apply here, you will be told that plainly.
Property in Pontypridd varies street to street, so the honest answer to "what will it cost" is that it depends on fixed wire testing, board labelling and remedial works — checkable in under an hour.

If none of this matches what your property is doing, call and describe it — the answer may be simpler than the page suggests. If a part needs ordering, you will know the timescale before we leave.

Commercial questions we get asked
Is a specialist needed or will any electrician do?
The work must be done by someone competent and registered. That is what the certification depends on.
What if I have had this looked at before?
Bring us the previous report if you have one. We test independently but it is useful to see what changed.
What if the property has had DIY work done?
It gets tested like anything else. Desk power fed by daisy-chained extension leads is often the result of well-meant work that was never verified.
Is the work guaranteed?
Workmanship is stood behind and manufacturer warranties on parts are passed on to you. We do not offer guarantees we cannot honour.
Who notifies building control?
We do, through Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council where the work is notifiable. It is included rather than charged as an extra.
