  2. 02

    Written fixed quote

  3. 03

    Booked around access

    Where access allows we diary planned for the access constraint.

  4. 04

    Certificate + evidence pack

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

What we build into every quote

  • In our experience locally, access constraints priced into the diary — a ex-council semi in Mountain Ash isn't the same working day as a new-build with an empty garage.
  • Access constraints priced into the diary — more likely where earlier work was never certificated.

Wiring generation & likely findings

Materials we spec
