modern block construction, service ducts to each flat, ceiling voids used for cable routing. Access is easy inside the flat; the constraint is the freeholder relationship for anything touching the common parts.
If you own a modern flat in Aberdare and need emergency callouts, the right spec is usually not the most expensive one. On this stock the sensible answer is SPD retrofit — matched to the wiring generation, not a lift-and-shift from a new-build brochure.
That is the standard we quote to. Fixed price, honest survey, RCBO-per-circuit CU where the base board only had RCDs, and paperwork the next EICR won't question.
Focus on the utility cupboard, the consumer unit location, and the intended cable route. Usually 15–30 minutes on-site or a short photo set.
Priced against your modern flat's specific construction, not a template. Route sketched, materials listed, no line-item surprises.

Wiring generation on this stock is typically current, but often ex-developer with the same headroom issues as new-builds. On a modern flat you should expect us to flag: developer CU inside a bedroom or kitchen — noise nuisance from RCBO trips; no SPD in the base install; communal EV provision governed by the freeholder, not the individual flat.
Materials and methods we spec on modern flat work: SPD retrofit; RCBO-per-circuit CU where the base board only had RCDs; sub-main uplift only where the freeholder consents. Everything is priced on the quote — nothing added on invoice.
Across CF44 the modern flat stock we've worked on shares consistent patterns: developer CU inside a bedroom or kitchen — noise nuisance from RCBO trips. That local pattern is baked into the quote, not discovered on the day.
Common enough that we work on this stock most weeks. ex-mining cottages in Trecynon and Cwmbach with original 1950s wiring, alongside 1980s semis in Aberaman — the modern flat is a recognisable slice of that mix.
