Adding what the developer didn't — EV point, outside lighting, garden sockets, home-office feeds.
The point of consumer unit upgrades for new-build owners in Barry is to get the house set up properly — nothing else. Certificates and paperwork matter only because they are what actually unblocks that outcome.
That is the lens we quote through. A fixed price to get the house set up properly, priced against your new-build home in Barry, delivered on your deadline — not our diary.
Photos of the CU and meter, or a 15-minute visit — enough to write a fixed quote.
Priced to your moving in, invoice routed to the homeowner, no line-item surprises.
Same-week for standard scope, planned longer where the shutdown window or new-build home logistics demand it.
NICEIC certificate, photo evidence, and any Part P or licensing paperwork emailed the evening the job signs off.
Barry sits inside our standard patch — we're regularly in Penarth and Cardiff on the same fixed-price model.
The developer board is usually 18th Edition but often maxed out — an RCBO board plus SPD is a small upgrade that unlocks the whole house.
Portfolio new-builds often manage new-build homes in Barry, Penarth and Cardiff — we consolidate the schedule so it lands as one visit day, not three.
Any change is priced and agreed in writing before we do it. The number on the original quote is the number on the invoice unless you signed off an extra.
Usually not a swap, often a spare-way add or an SPD retrofit — half the cost, all the benefit.
Standard turnaround for a Barry new-build enquiry is a written fixed quote inside 24 hours and a booked visit inside the week. Deadline-driven briefs (moving in) get prioritised.
The homeowner, as standard. We handle split billing for new-build owners managing multiple new-build homes across Barry.
Modifications that don't void the developer warranty, certified and Part P notified in your name. All emailed the same evening the job signs off.
Homeowner work in Barry makes up the bulk of our diary. That means real recent projects in the postcode, real photos, and a real number to call if anything needs a follow-up.
If you take one thing from this page: the trigger you called about (moving in) 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 new-build briefs. Two-minute triage, honest read on lead time, booked into the diary the same call.
