Think of our domestic electrical maintenance services as a wise investment, not an inconvenient cost

Properly maintaining your electrics at home is just so important. Poorly kept systems and appliances can hit you in the pocket when they become inefficient or break down. And more importantly still, they can be a serious safety risk.

There are more than 14,000 electrical fires in residential dwellings each year in the UK, with more than a quarter caused by faulty appliances and leads, according to Electrical Safety First.

Regular checks and inspections for your electrical systems, such as your sockets, circuits and fuse boards, can help you spot any risks and deal with them before they become too expensive or cause serious injury.

Typically, our electrical maintenance services include

  • Electrical fault findings
  • Testing of sockets
  • Wire testing
  • Checks on smoke detectors and fire alarms
  • Electrical installation condition reports (EICR)

Domestic electrical maintenance can feel like an unwanted cost. Our advice is that it’s an investment that can save you financially in the long-term and, more importantly, help protect you and your family from harm.

EICR

Much like having an MOT for your car, it’s important that you carry out checks on the condition of the electrics in your home at regular intervals. It helps to identify any faults or defects that need fixing and will ensure they continue to operate safely and efficiently.

An electrical installation condition report (EICR) is like a thorough health check for your electrics, and helps to identify any damage, deterioration, defects and/or conditions which may give rise to danger.

Some more info on our EICR services

  • The electrician will need to be given access to all of the rooms in your home
  • It will involve the testing of various circuits which will require the turning off of the electrics at the main supply.
  • Homeowners often ask for, or obtain a condition report as part of a house sale
  • It is generally recommended that an EICR is carried out every ten years or when there is a change of occupancy in a dwelling
  • Typically an EICR will take around 3-4 hours to complete, depending on the size of a property and the number of circuits requiring testing

I needed urgent repairs in order to obtain an EICR certificate for my new tenant to move in before Christmas. Although the parts required were rare, Phil spoke to a trusted supplier and obtained them. Then thanks to Dave, one of his many fine technicians completed the work with only a day to spare before the Christmas break. FIVE STAR Customer service as usual. Thank you all!

Philip was very professional and efficient. A very polite man, his management and work that was offered was first class. The 2 electricians who completed the work of carrying out landlords safety certificates of 7 flats was efficient and first-class. I would recommend Glenfield Electrical to anyone and would have no hesitation in using them again. And the price was good.
