Every eicr — electrical safety checks on a edwardian semi enquiry we take from Tredegar starts in the same place: what is the installation actually doing right now? On a Edwardian semi you should expect us to flag: front-bay window seats hiding original single-insulated conductors; porch lighting on a spur off the hall circuit with no dedicated CPC; cellar or under-floor damp affecting the incoming supply. Where an installation has been extended over decades, the sensible approach is to establish a baseline before adding anything else to it. It is the difference between a fixed price and an estimate.
The order of work matters: isolate, test, explain, then price. Skipping the middle two is how people end up paying twice. Nothing about it is unusual for property of that age. Eicr — electrical safety checks on a edwardian semi touches safety, paperwork and cost, and the three do not always point the same way.
