Domestic Electrician

From January 2005, domestic electrical installations came within the scope of the Building Regulations. This means, all new domestic electrical installations, together with specific alterations & additions to current installations, have to be inspected & comply with strict electrical safety performance standards. The standards cover the design, installation, inspection & testing of domestic electrical work & the provision of information.

The main reason for the change was the need to reduce the hazards posed by unsafe domestic electrical installations and thereby help to reduce injuries from electrical shocks and burns. It was also designed to reduce injuries arising from fires in dwellings due to electrical components overheating or arcing. When the time comes to sell your property, your purchaser’s surveyors will ask for evidence that notifiable domestic electrical work, installed after January 2005 complies with the new Building Regulations. There will be two ways to prove compliance:

• A certificate showing that the work has been done by a competent electrical installer who is registered under one of five Electrical Self-Certification schemes (this is the preferred route) or
• A completion certificate from the local authority saying that the electrical installation has approval under the Building Regulations. This however, is dependent on the owner who has ordered the work, on providing relevant electrical test certificates on completion of the installation, from a competent person.

You will find all our electricians to be helpful & friendly whilst maintaining a professional attitude and standard. Our experience, expertise and efficient approach has enabled us to meet clients’ needs while maintaining a cost effective, quality service.
