What we check on a property in Allesley
Every quote starts with a survey. These are the things we look at on electrical work in Allesley, and why each one changes the recommendation.
Accessory condition
Scorching, cracked faceplates, loose sockets and discoloured terminals point at loose connections, which generate heat. We look behind a sample of accessories rather than judging from the front.
Loft and underfloor cabling
We check for cable buried under insulation, which derates it, and for cables resting on ceiling joists where they can be stood on. Both are common and both are straightforward to put right.
Bathroom and kitchen compliance
Zones, IP ratings and supplementary bonding in bathrooms, and the condition of accessories near sinks and hobs. These are the areas where past unnotified work most often shows up.
Smoke and heat alarm provision
We note what alarms are fitted, whether they are interlinked and how they are powered. Requirements differ for rented property, and it is a cheap thing to put right while other work is happening.
Insulation resistance
Testing insulation resistance circuit by circuit shows up deteriorating cable and moisture ingress before they cause a fault. It is also what distinguishes a tired installation from a dangerous one.
Circuit identification and labelling
We check the board is accurately labelled and record what each way actually feeds. An unlabelled or wrongly labelled board is a safety issue the moment anyone needs to isolate something quickly.

Speak to us today0786 5778332Which part of Allesley do you cover?
All of it — the streets around All Saints Parish Church included. Where a property sits matters less to us than what the access is like, which is something we look at on the survey rather than guessing from an address.
How quickly can you get to Allesley?
Quickly — it is about 2.5 miles north-west of the city centre. Short distances are the main reason we can offer same-week surveys and come back promptly if something needs a second look.
Do I need an electrician to add a socket?
Adding a socket to an existing circuit is not notifiable in England, so legally you may do it yourself. Whether you should is another matter: it still has to comply with the wiring regulations, and the circuit has to be able to take it. What is notifiable is a new circuit, any work in a bathroom, and consumer unit replacement. Those must be notified to Building Control or carried out under a competent person scheme.
Can you work on commercial premises and rental property?
Yes. We carry out EICRs and remedial work for landlords and letting agents, and inspection, testing and maintenance for commercial premises, working around trading hours where we need to. For portfolios we can schedule inspections so they do not all fall due in the same month.
What is an EICR and who needs one?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a formal inspection and test of a fixed installation, recording its condition against the current wiring regulations. In England, private rented homes must have one at least every five years and at the start of a new tenancy. Owner-occupiers are not obliged to have one, but it is the standard check before buying, and the usual recommendation is roughly every ten years for an owner-occupied house.
What is the problem with old aluminium or rubber cable?
Rubber-insulated cable, common before the 1960s, goes brittle with age and crumbles when disturbed, exposing conductors — which is why an old installation can test acceptably and then fail the moment someone works on it. It is one of the clearest indicators that an installation needs replacing rather than extending, and we will say so rather than add circuits to it.
