The Tredegar version of this job is shaped by the local housing: valley terraces around Sirhowy and Georgetown. On a HMO you should expect us to flag: communal-area lighting on a shared circuit with an individual room — a licence-fail issue; BS 5839-6 Grade D interlinked alarm system with mixed-vintage sensors; no emergency lighting on the escape route. Nothing is charged for on the basis of a guess. Where a reading is borderline, it is reported as borderline. It takes minutes to confirm and saves hours later.
Timing is the other variable. Where materials matched to the stock applies, the visit runs longer, and we would rather book the right slot than rush the wrong one. It rarely surprises us; it often surprises the previous quote. If you are weighing up ev charger installation on a hmo at a Tredegar address, the useful starting point is the age and history of the wiring.
