If you are buying a new home you may require an electrical report. This is an important test and document. A thorough and in depth electrical inspection is a vital part of knowing whether your home is close to needing a rewire.
Does the property have a beautiful Kitchen, Bathroom and decoration throughout? Wouldn’t that be a shame if it all had to be damaged to rewire the property? That’s where we come in. Don’t buy a home with just a general survey, call us to take care of the electrical survey for you. We don’t just turn up and look at the electrical box / consumer unit. We take several hours to fully and thoroughly inspect and test the property for you.
We will test every circuit, examine the consumer unit, make sure that all cables are correctly sized, remove accessories and look for defects, rust, damage to wiring, old wiring, signs of ageing and deterioration. We will check for breaks in circuits and test wiring to see what general condition it is in.
Do you know that a thorough and comprehensive electrical report can actually save you money? In lots of cases we pick up on faults and issues that need correcting and our clients find that they can negotiate the works or house price accordingly.
The picture shows fairly modern cabling but installed into a damp environment. Damp environments affect wiring negatively and can decrease the usable life and cause the consumer unit to trip regularly wearing out electrical safety components inside your consumer unit.
We specialise in inspecting electrical installations in homes and can tell you an approximate age of the wiring system, the likely lifespan left within the wiring system, whether the wiring complies with modern safety regulations and so on.
There is no legal minimum level of inspection when an electrician carries out an electrical inspection so cheap inspections can leave you with a worthless test document and no peace of mind! We will only carry out thorough testing and inspection on your behalf. We work for the home buyer not the seller. If there are hidden issues we will do our utmost to unearth them all for you and report accurately and comprehensively on the condition of the electrical system for you!
For peace of mind, call us today 0151 351 4011
