Eicr — electrical safety checks on a 1930s semi is one of the more commonly misquoted jobs, largely because nobody tests before pricing it. Materials and methods we spec on 1930s bay-fronted semi work: 18th Edition metal-clad CU; RCBO per circuit; additional CU for a loft or garage sub-main where the main board is short of ways. A written record matters as much as the work. Anything we find at a NP10–NP20 address is documented in a form you can hand to someone else. That detail is what a proper survey is for.

If you have had conflicting advice, it is usually because someone quoted without checking wiring generation on record (rewired 1980s–2010s) so the quote. Two electricians looking at the same readings tend to agree. That is one reason our price does not move after the survey. A short guide to eicr — electrical safety checks on a 1930s semi for Newport property, written by the person who would do the work.

What we build into every quote

  • Wiring generation on record (rewired 1980s–2010s) so the quote reflects what's actually in the house, not what the brochure assumes. It is checked before anything is signed.
  • Fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to c.1925–1939 construction — not a generic South Wales rate. Checked at first fix and again at test.
  • Fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to c.1925–1939 construction is one of the few things we would ask you to stop using until tested.
  • Common 1930s semi findings we flag before quoting — one of several possibilities, all of which get checked.

Construction & access

Materials we spec

Practical next step: photos of the porch or hallway or a 15-minute survey, fixed written quote back inside 24 hours, work booked around your make the extension compliant. If the property is tenanted, the visit is arranged around access rather than around us, which usually means confirming times with whoever holds the keys. It is written into the report either way, so nothing is hidden.

Newport context

Whether the property is owner-occupied or let in Newport, the technical work is identical — only the paperwork's recipient changes. It is the kind of detail that separates a tidy job from a callback.
