Consumer unit upgrades on a ex-council semi is worth doing properly once rather than cheaply twice. Materials and methods we spec on ex-council semi work: metal-clad 18th Edition CU; SPD as standard; outbuilding sub-main with dedicated RCD. We treat Tredegar as its own round rather than an outlying job, which is why work in Ebbw Vale tends to be scheduled alongside it. We would rather rule out certificate at the end, delivered early than discover it late.

Most enquiries about this start with a symptom and end with priced against your ex-council semi's specific construction, not a template. We would rather set that expectation now than on the day. Most Tredegar visits settle this within the first hour. Here is how consumer unit upgrades on a ex-council semi works in practice for a property in Tredegar, start to finish.

Construction & access

Work in Tredegar is planned so that the disruptive part is as short as it can reasonably be. On valley terraces around Sirhowy and Georgetown it is worth ten minutes of anyone's time.

Wiring generation & likely findings

The short version: get it measured, then decide. Everything else follows from the readings. Nothing about this needs to be stressful — it is a known process with a known output.

Materials we spec

If you own a ex-council semi in Tredegar and need consumer unit upgrades, the right spec is usually not the most expensive one. We would rather turn a Tredegar job down than take on something we cannot certificate honestly. That is the honest version, rather than the version that sells more work.

What we build into every quote

  • One of the usual points: materials matched to the stock: metal-clad 18th Edition CU, plus SPD as standard.
  • Wiring generation on record (council-era rewiring 1980s–2000s) so the quote reflects what's actually in the house, not what the brochure assumes. This is the part people ask about most.
  • Fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to c.1945–1980 construction. We check it early because it is quick to eliminate.
  • Certificate at the end, delivered the same evening is one of the few things we would ask you to stop using until tested.

Do you deal with the paperwork for the council?+

Where notification is required, it is submitted to Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council as part of the job.
