This page covers eicr — electrical safety checks on a ex-council semi for property in Caerphilly and the CF83 postcodes around it. The scope is standard once the physical routing is planned around that construction. Caerphilly County Borough Council is the authority for Caerphilly, so where the work is notifiable the registration goes through them. Neither of us benefits from finding that out halfway through.

Photographs of anything hidden are taken as standard, because you should not have to take our word for what is above the ceiling. The paperwork explains it in the same words we would use on site. If you are weighing up eicr — electrical safety checks on a ex-council semi at a Caerphilly address, the useful detail is below rather than in a brochure.

Construction & access

On new-build estates around Bedwas and Trecenydd in particular, materials matched to the stock tends to shape the plan more than the specification does. The materials rarely change; the route and the access do. It is one reason we quote after the survey rather than over the phone.

Wiring generation & likely findings

Nothing about this needs to be stressful — it is a known process with a known output. If the property is being sold or let, tell us the deadline and we will be honest about whether it is achievable.
