Why the property type matters

We do not upsell a full replacement where a component is at fault, and we do not patch something that has reached the end of its life. We would say the same to a family member.

For 1970s estates around Hengoed in particular, eicr — electrical safety checks on a ex-council semi throws up a fairly predictable set of findings. Materials and methods we spec on ex-council semi work: metal-clad 18th Edition CU; SPD as standard; outbuilding sub-main with dedicated RCD. Questions asked during the visit get answered during the visit; there is no benefit to either of us in keeping it mysterious. Anyone testing properly will reach the same conclusion.

Where previous work has no certification behind it, we test it rather than take it on trust. It rarely changes the price, but it does change the plan. You can spend a lot on eicr — electrical safety checks on a ex-council semi or very little. Which one is right depends on measurements, not on the quote.

Ystrad Mynach context

    Booked around access

    Where the survey supports it: diary planned for the access constraint that matters on this stock — external meter cabinet on the front elevation on most estates — tidy cable route into the hallway, easy cu swap.

What we build into every quote

  • Commonly, wiring generation on record (council-era rewiring 1980s–2000s) so the quote reflects what's actually in the house, not what the brochure assumes.
  • Fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to c.1945–1980 construction — not a generic South Wales rate. Ask if you want it explained on site.
  • Certificate at the end, delivered the same evening — the point at which a small job can turn into a larger one.
  • Materials matched to the stock — common enough locally that we carry the parts for it.
