Call for BridgendGet a quote

Two things dominate emergency callouts on a ex-council semi in Bridgend: council-era MK plastic split-load CU still installed — reliable but no SPD, no per-circuit RCBOs, and external meter cabinet with the tails routing through an exterior wall — sometimes on an older tails spec. Both are known variables on this stock, and both belong on the quote — not the invoice.

We work across CF31–CF35 weekly and see the same patterns street after street. That means the quote reflects real experience of this property type, not a template price.

What to expect

  1. 01

    Photo or on-site survey

    Focus on the under-stairs cupboard, the consumer unit location, and the intended cable route. Usually 15–30 minutes on-site or a short photo set.

  2. 02

    Written fixed quote

    Priced against your ex-council semi's specific construction, not a template. Route sketched, materials listed, no line-item surprises.

  3. 03

    Booked around access

    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.

  4. 04

    Certificate + evidence pack

    NICEIC certificate, photo evidence of hidden work, Part P where applicable — all emailed the evening the job signs off.

What we build into every quote

  • Common ex-council semi findings we flag before quoting: council-era MK plastic split-load CU still installed — reliable but no SPD, no per-circuit RCBOs.
  • Access constraints priced into the diary — a ex-council semi in Bridgend isn't the same working day as a new-build with an empty garage.
  • 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.
