Meeting the Welsh Government 5-yearly EICR rules and keeping tenancies compliant without spending needless money on remedials.
Two questions dominate kitchen & bathroom upgrades enquiries from landlords across Barry: 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 Barry address, we survey it before quoting — not after invoicing.
Voids are the moment to bring kitchen/bathroom wiring up to spec — extract fans, bathroom zones and cooker circuits usually need attention.
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.
we combine landlord bookings with the wider Barry diary rather than pricing a premium for the postcode.
The landlord, as standard. We handle split billing for landlords managing multiple rentals across Barry.
Usually yes for a kitchen refresh or bathroom re-fit — we coordinate with the fitter so first-fix, plaster and second-fix land in order.
An EICR PDF the letting agent will accept, invoice in the landlord name, and Part P notification numbers where any work triggered them. All emailed the same evening the job signs off.
Yes — Penarth, Cardiff, Cowbridge run on the same diary and same fixed-price model as Barry itself.
No — quotes and photo/site surveys for landlord enquiries in Barry are free. You only pay once the fixed-price scope is agreed.
Rent Smart Wales-compliant paperwork on every rental job, EICRs in the exact NICEIC format the Welsh Government process references, delivered inside the 28-day window.
Landlords with rentals across Barry and the wider Penarth / Cardiff area get one point of contact for the lot — quote, work, certificate, after-care.
If you take one thing from this page: the trigger you called about (tenancy renewal) is what the quote should be built around. Everything else — brand of gear, exact scope, upgrade suggestions — is downstream of that.
Calling is faster than a form for deadline-driven landlord briefs. Two-minute triage, honest read on lead time, booked into the diary the same call.
