Materials we spec

Beyond Newport itself, we regularly cover post-war semi work across Cwmbran, Caerleon, Risca on the same fixed-price model — same materials, same certificate format. Where an installation has been extended over decades, the sensible approach is to establish a baseline before adding anything else to it. The schedule of results records it either way.

What we build into every quote

  • Put simply: access constraints priced into the diary — a post-war semi in Newport isn't the same working day as a new-build with an empty garage.
  • Commonly, wiring generation on record (rewired 1990s–2010s) so the quote reflects what's actually in the house, not what the brochure assumes.
  • Properties near Cwmbran throw this up regularly: certificate at the end, delivered the same evening.
  • Poor previous workmanship shows up as access constraints priced into the diary more often than material failure does.
