Meeting the Welsh Government 5-yearly EICR rules and keeping tenancies compliant without spending needless money on remedials.
Two questions dominate consumer unit upgrades enquiries from landlords across Port Talbot: what does the fixed price actually cover, and what does the certificate need to say so the solicitor or agent signs off first time?
We answer both at quote stage, on paper. No "we'll see on the day", no fictional starting price. If a variable is real for your Port Talbot address, we survey it before quoting — not after invoicing.
In Port Talbot specifically, the housing/premises mix is steelworks-era terraces in Aberavon and Sandfields, post-war semis in Baglan, and coastal properties towards Margam.
A CU upgrade at a rental usually gets triggered by a C2 on the EICR — we quote the swap on the same visit so you don't pay a second callout.
Photos of the CU and meter, or a 15-minute visit — enough to write a fixed quote.
Priced to your tenancy renewal, invoice routed to the landlord, no line-item surprises.
Same-week for standard scope, planned longer where the shutdown window or rental logistics demand it.
NICEIC certificate, photo evidence, and any Part P or licensing paperwork emailed the evening the job signs off.

Short version: consumer unit upgrades for landlords in Port Talbot works best when the price is fixed on paper, the invoice routes to the landlord, and the certificate is in the format your agent or solicitor already accepts. That is the standard on every landlord job we run across SA12–SA13.
Landlords in Port Talbot usually want two numbers: the fixed price and the earliest date we can start. Both come back inside a day, in writing, with the certificate spec attached.
