Who needs it

Is Your Installation Due a Check?

Regular testing keeps people safe and keeps you on the right side of the regulations. Whether it’s a duty or just peace of mind, here’s where it usually matters.

Often a legal duty

Landlords

Landlords have legal duties around electrical safety in rented homes, including periodic inspection by a qualified person. We make sure yours is covered and re-checked on time.

Duty of care

Businesses & Employers

You're responsible for keeping electrical systems safe for staff, customers and visitors. Periodic fixed-wire testing and PAT keep you covered and compliant.

Peace of mind

Homeowners

Worth doing with an older installation, after buying a property, or before you sell, so you know everything behind the walls is safe and sound.

Compliance at scale

Facilities & Property Managers

Keep multiple sites safe and compliant with scheduled testing, clear records and one team that turns up and gets it done.

What we test

From a Full EICR to Spotting a Hidden Fault

As well as standard inspections, we offer specialist diagnostics and condition monitoring. In plain English, here’s what each one is.

EICRElectrical Installation Condition Report
A full health-check of your fixed wiring, the installation behind the walls, reporting how safe it is and flagging any issues by priority.
PATPortable Appliance Testing
Inspection and testing of plug-in appliances and equipment to confirm they're safe to use, common for workplaces and rentals.
Thermal imaging surveys
Infra-red scanning that spots overheating connections and components before they become a fault, a fire risk or a breakdown.
Earth electrode resistance testing
Checking that your earthing, the thing that keeps you safe if a fault occurs, is doing its job properly.
Circuit testing & fault finding
Tracking down nuisance trips, intermittent faults and the gremlins that other people give up on, then putting them right.
Emergency lighting testing
Inspection and testing of emergency lighting so it works when it's needed, a key duty for many commercial premises.
What you get

A Report You Can Actually Understand

Our job doesn’t end at finding faults. You get clear, practical advice and full transparency on the condition of your electrics, so you can make informed decisions.

Clear and Documented

A proper written report, not a scribble on a job sheet, that you can keep, share or hand to an agent or insurer.

Photographed

Anything we flag is photographed, so you can see exactly what we mean rather than taking it on faith.

Prioritised & Plain-English

Issues ranked by how urgent they are, with straightforward advice on what to do, and no pressure to fix what doesn't need it.

Good to know

Testing & Compliance Questions

The things landlords, businesses and homeowners ask us most.

It depends on the property and how it's used: a family home, a rented flat and a busy workplace are all different. We'll advise the right interval for your situation and remind you when you're next due.

Landlords in England have legal duties around electrical safety in rented homes, including periodic inspection by a qualified person. We'll make sure your report meets what's required and is renewed on time.

An EICR checks your fixed wiring, the installation built into the property. PAT checks plug-in appliances and equipment. Many businesses and landlords need both, and we can do them in one visit.

The report flags each issue by priority. We explain in plain English what every item means and how urgent it is, then quote any remedial work, so you're in control, with no scare tactics.

It depends on the size of the installation. We'll give you a clear timescale up front, keep any disruption to a minimum, and plan any necessary power-downs around you.

Yes: thermal imaging surveys, emergency lighting testing, earth testing and fault-finding are all part of what we offer, on top of standard inspections.

Darren provided a very reasonable quote and arrived on the day right on time. I've met many contractors over the years and I must say his work is exemplary. Knowing the issues he'd face in a 200-year-old property, this did not faze him in the least. He fitted a new electrical installation ready for my hot tub and I can now look forward to a nice hot soak. Cheers Darren.

Darren was very friendly and knowledgeable and did a great job with our outside lighting and putting power into the shed. He is fully trained and very tidy, always cleans up after himself. Always turns up on time and completes work in a timely manner. I would highly recommend him for all electrical works, 10 out of 10. Thank you Darren.

Often Booked Alongside Testing

A test sometimes turns up remedial work, and many of the same customers look at fire safety or an energy review while we're there.
