What we are really assessing is condition, not age. Common period flat findings we flag before quoting matters; the date on the board does not, by itself. That is the difference between a guess and a measurement. Here is how consumer unit upgrades on a period flat works at a Neath address, including the parts that decide the price.

Construction & access

Neath sits inside the area we work daily, so a follow-up visit is not a logistical problem if one is needed. Neither of us benefits from finding that out halfway through.

Wiring generation & likely findings

Questions before booking are free, and often end the conversation there. If you have had a quote elsewhere, we are happy to look at it and explain the differences.

Materials we spec

We survey the hallway, the cable route and the consumer unit location before pricing — because on this property type the standard scope is only standard once you know what you're working around. Every circuit affected is identified and labelled, which makes the next person's job — and yours — considerably easier. It is one reason we quote after the survey rather than over the phone.

What we build into every quote

Cable routing planned around solid or mixed masonry, partition walls timber-framed with plasterboard — no chasing walls that don't take a chase, no mid-job "we couldn't get through". Ask if you want it explained on site.
Common period flat findings we flag before quoting: sub-main tails routed through communal areas — freeholder consent needed for CU work. That is measured, not assumed.

What if I have had this looked at before?+

What if you find something unrelated?+

It gets reported, not quietly fixed. You decide whether it is dealt with now or later.

Do you charge to come out and look?+

Attendance and testing are quoted before we travel to Neath, so there is nothing added afterwards that was not agreed.

Is older wiring automatically a problem?+

No. Plenty of older Neath installations test well. Age is a reason to check, not a verdict.
