We take a steady number of consumer unit upgrades on a new-build enquiries from Ebbw Vale each month, and the pattern is fairly consistent. Service voids and pre-planned cable routes make additions straightforward — but the developer board is often the bottleneck. Properties around Ebbw Vale that have changed use — a room converted, an extension added — usually need a wider look than the original request implies. The paperwork explains it in the same words we would use on site.
Most enquiries about this start with a symptom and end with fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to post-2005 construction. We would rather set that expectation now than on the day. Around NP23 it is fixed price at quote stage, that decides how long the visit takes. There is a short version and a long version of consumer unit upgrades on a new-build. The short version: test it, then decide.
