Your home should be a place of complete safety and comfort. Yet, flickering lights, a buzzing socket, or the need for just one more plug can turn that comfort into worry.

FAQ: Your Domestic Electrician Questions Answered

What is Part P and why does it matter?

Part P is the section of the Building Regulations for England and Wales that covers electrical safety in dwellings. It means that most electrical work in your home must be carried out by a domestic electrician who is registered with a competent person scheme, like the NICEIC, to ensure it is safe and compliant. We handle all the necessary notifications and provide you with the required certificate.

Do I need an electrical certificate when I sell my house?

Yes. Since 2005, any notifiable electrical work (like new circuits or a consumer unit replacement) must have a compliance certificate. Your buyer’s solicitor will request this. Using our domestic electrician services guarantees you receive the correct Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) or Minor Works Certificate, making the sale process smoother.

How do I know if my house needs rewiring?

Common signs include frequent blown fuses, tripping RCDs, flickering lights, a fuse box with a wooden back or old-fashioned fuse wire, burning smells from sockets, and a lack of modern earthing or RCD protection. If your property is over 30 years old and hasn’t been rewired, a survey from one of our domestic electricians is highly recommended.

Are you available for emergency call-outs?

Yes. We offer a 24-hour emergency call-out service for urgent domestic electrical issues that pose an immediate safety risk, such as loss of power, burning smells, or sparking fittings.
