Common questions
What paperwork do I get?
The certification appropriate to the work, listing the circuits tested and the readings recorded, not a receipt with a tick on it.
How do you decide what actually needs doing?
By testing first. Same-hour attendance across most of South Wales is confirmed or ruled out with instruments before anything is quoted for the Tredegar property.
Does this affect my insurance?
Insurers generally want evidence that the installation has been inspected and any defect addressed. The certification is that evidence.
