Call for Ystrad Mynach Get a quote

There is a short version and a long version of eicr — electrical safety checks on a edwardian semi. The short version: test it, then decide. Everything is priced on the quote — nothing added on invoice. Where the answer is to leave it alone for now, that is exactly what we will tell you. In practice that means checking focus on the hallway before anything is replaced.

A quote that arrives before any testing is a guess with a number on it. We do it the other way round. It is written into the report either way, so nothing is hidden. Before booking anywhere in Caerphilly County Borough Council, it is worth knowing which parts of the job are fixed and which depend on your property.

What we build into every quote

Typically — wiring generation on record (rewired 1970s–2000s) so the quote reflects what's actually in the house, not what the brochure assumes.
Fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to c.1901–1918 construction — not a generic South Wales rate. Simple to check, easy to miss.
Nine times in ten the trigger is wiring generation on record (rewired 1970s–2000s) so the quote.
Fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to c.1901–1918 construction — cheap to confirm with instruments, expensive to assume.

Construction & access

We would rather turn a Ystrad Mynach job down than take on something we cannot certificate honestly. We would say the same to a family member.

Wiring generation & likely findings

The paperwork is written so a surveyor, a letting agent or another electrician can check it. Questions before booking are free, and often end the conversation there.

Materials we spec

That's what we do, on every job. We take the view that wiring generation on record (rewired 1970s–2000s) so the quote should be established before a price is written, not after. That is slower to quote and cheaper to complete. The regulations are specific about it, so there is little room for opinion.

What to expect

01
Photo or on-site survey

NICEIC certificate, photo evidence of hidden work, Part P where applicable — all emailed the evening the job signs off. Simple to check, easy to miss.
03
Written fixed quote

04
Booked around access
What that means in practice: diary planned for the access constraint that matters on this stock — side-return access on most plots, which gives an ev cable a straight run from the cu to a driveway charger without touching the front elevation.
