The starting question with eicr — electrical safety checks on a barn conversion is always the same: what does the existing installation test at? Wiring generation on this stock is typically conversion-era rewiring; often a mix of surface-fixed and recessed with visible cable runs on original timbers. Timing is the other variable. Where access constraints priced into the diary applies, the visit runs longer, and we would rather book the right slot than rush the wrong one. That is the honest version, rather than the version that sells more work.
Timescales are given honestly. If a part has to come, we say when rather than leaving it open. It is the difference between a fixed price and an estimate. We take a steady number of eicr — electrical safety checks on a barn conversion enquiries from Ystrad Mynach each month, and the pattern is fairly consistent.
