Registered electricians · Cardiff · since 2014
EICRs, fuse boards, rewires, EV chargers, lighting and faults across Cardiff. Every job tested, certified and notified, with the price agreed before we start.
What we do
01
The Electrical Installation Condition Report every rented home needs and every buyer should ask for, done properly, explained in plain English and emailed the same day.
EICR £139 for a flat or two-bedroom house, £169 for three bedrooms, £219 for four or more.
02
Replacing old fuse boxes and plastic consumer units with a metal-clad board with RCD protection on every circuit, in a day, with the certificate and the building control notification.
Consumer unit upgrades from £549 including the board, RCBO on every circuit, surge protection, testing, certificate and notification.
03
Full rewires for houses with rubber, lead or 1960s cable, and partial rewires where one circuit has failed, planned room by room so you can live in the house.
Full rewires from £3,900 for a two-bedroom flat, £5,200 for a three-bedroom house, including a new consumer unit, all sockets, switches and lights, making good the chases and the certificate.
04
Home EV chargers supplied and fitted in a morning, with the earthing, the isolator and the notification done properly so it is safe and the warranty is valid.
From £849 supplied and fitted for a 7 kW smart charger with up to 10 metres of cable run.
05
The everyday jobs: more sockets where you need them, downlights that do not fry the loft insulation, garden lighting on a timer, cooker and shower circuits.
Extra double socket from £95.
06
An RCD that trips at random, a circuit that is dead, a socket that is warm or a smell of burning: found properly with test equipment, not by swapping parts, and fixed.
Call-out £85 including the first hour in office hours, £140 out of hours.
EICR explained
An Electrical Installation Condition Report says whether the wiring is safe. Every observation gets a code, and the code decides what happens next. We wrote a plain-English guide so you can read the one we send you.
How we work
Every job that produces a certificate produces one: EICR, electrical installation certificate, minor works. Emailed as a PDF the same day.
EICRs, boards, chargers and call-outs are fixed prices. Anything else is quoted after a look, and the quote is the bill.
Two vans, a diary that is not overbooked, and a typical wait of two days. Loss of power is same day.
Chasing walls makes dust; we sheet up, hoover, and tell you in advance which rooms will be affected and for how long.
EV chargers
A 7 kW smart charger supplied and fitted from £849, with a free survey of the supply first so the price we quote is the price you pay. Open-PEN protection or an earth rod where the supply needs it, isolator, network notification and the app set up on your tariff before we leave.
Reviews
EICR on a house we were buying. Amira found a C2 the survey missed, we knocked the price down, and Volta did the board change the week after we completed. Report in my inbox before she had left the drive.
Six student houses, six EICRs, the remedials done on the unsatisfactory ones and the retests free. One invoice, one PDF per property, and a reminder in four years. Exactly what I needed.
RCD tripping every time it rained for a year and two electricians had replaced the RCD. Dan found the outside socket full of water in ten minutes. £85.
Areas we cover
Home ground is Cardiff East, where we can often come the same day. The rest of Cardiff, Penarth and the Newport and Caerphilly fringe is a two-day wait in a normal week.
Fixed prices on EICRs, boards and chargers, a quote first on everything else, and a slot this week. Loss of power or a burning smell: ring, any hour.
