Trusted Electrician in Christchurch

Landlords must have an Electrical Installation Condition Report carried out at least once every five years, or at the start of any new tenancy. The inspection checks the safety of the fixed wiring, switches, sockets and consumer unit, producing a report that must be provided to tenants and letting agents.

We isolate the power supply, remove the old fuse board and install a modern metal consumer unit equipped with dual RCDs or individual RCBOs and surge protection. We test all connected circuits to verify earth continuity, insulation resistance and correct polarity, then provide an electrical certificate upon completion.

Yes, we install dedicated electric vehicle charging points for homes and commercial locations. We assess your main incoming power supply, install a dedicated protective device, run external cabling in suitable conduit or clipping, and commission the unit so it is ready for use.

If an EICR identifies issues, each fault is detailed on the report with a specific safety classification code, such as C1 for immediate danger or C2 for potentially dangerous defects. We explain what needs putting right and provide a separate quote for remedial work so you can plan the repairs.

We use calibrated test instruments to measure insulation resistance, earth fault loop impedance and circuit loads rather than simply swapping out parts. This systematic process identifies failing appliances, water ingress or degraded cable insulation so the exact issue can be repaired.
