CG Electrical are a Qualified & Certified Electricians
Having a loss of power can cause a real problem in today’s modern homes, with most appliances running solely from the mains power, we will always act as efficiently as possible once receiving your call, often we will try to offer a temporary fix until we get there where possible so you’re not left in the dark.
Often the on-call engineer will be able to get you all of your power back within an hour, it is very rare that it would take longer, in these circumstances, the engineer would get on as much power for you as possible, isolating the circuits causing issues. By doing this it allows us to offer you a much more cost-effective solution as the out of hours charge would be higher than the normal, so we would isolate nuisance circuits and return the next day to resolve the underlying issues.
All works will be carried out by a qualified and competent team with years of experience, as a company we ensure that all employees respect the customer and will always keep the working area clean and tidy, should any damage need to be made to achieve the desired design, the client will always be made aware as well as having the option to say no, however this kind of observation should be made during the initial visit, to avoid any hidden surprises

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my RCD Keep Tripping?
This can be for a number of reasons; the RCD is there to prevent a more serious fault. If your sockets seem to be the issue, try unplugging all your appliances and see if that helps, alot of faults are used by faulty appliances. Also take into consideration what the weather has been like, if you have power outside and it seems to be when it rains, its likely water is getting into the connections.
How Much do you charge?
Unfortunately, this is a question asked all to commonly. It’s not possible for me to price a job without knowing more information and what materials will be needed.
As a Landlord, Do i need a electric certificate?
Landlords require an Electrical Installation Condition Report, This is a new law and needs to be completed every, 5 Years or change of tenant. This ensures the install is up to standard.
As i have had some work done, can you sign it of for me?
Unfortunately the answer to this question will always be no, No Electrical contractor can sign off another Electricians work, or member of the public, this is law, if you wish to have an install signed off as it was not done by the previous electrician, you will need to contact building control.
I am getting damp/mould in my bathroom can you help?
This is a question asked of us all too often, many bathrooms are fitted with poorly working fans or no fan at all, we install fans we believe truly work and are sure you’ll be happy and notice the difference immediately. There are many options for you in terms of ducting the air out pf your bathroom and that’s something we can discuss while quoting
If I buy the materials will the job be cheaper?
Theoretically yes, however what we often find when a client buy the materials is items are forgotten, not correct for the purpose or the most often is the quality is not good and we don’t like to install products which we believe don’t have a long lifespan, by doing that out quality of work is less and ultimately costs yourself more in the long run.
How far do you travel?
Depending on the job we are happy to travel as far as necessary, however if we believe that a more local trade may be able to do it in a more cost-effective way for you then we many suggest this.
Do you make good?
Often one of the team will carry a small tub of filler on board, however we aren’t decorators and would not make good large amounts of damage. We believe you should be happy 100% with the works we carry out, and we wouldn’t leave our work without being 100% happy either, as we are not decorators, we would not be happy to do a average job which is why we don’t do it, and leave it to the professional’s
I have bought a new light fitting can you fit it for me?
We would be more than happy to fit your new fitting for you, we will often ask you for a photo to be able to provide a quote, we pride ourselves on client satisfaction so will ensure your happy with the new fitting before we leave.
Will you sign off your work?
All of my installs are signed off with a minor works or installation certificate, and notifiable works will be notified to building control by myself. You will receive a PDF Certificate for this once payment has been made for the job.
Do you offer 24hr Call out ?
We do offer a 24hr Call out, and will always have an engineer on hand to get you back up and running, as a general rule of thumb, we will do what we can over the phone to help you get some power back on until the morning, this helps to keep the cost down for you, rather than paying the out of hour call out fee.
When can I call?
You can call anytime of the day, if you are looking to have a quote for a job or need a emergency electrician, feel free to call the number displayed, if we don’t answer please leave a message and we will get back to you at our earliest convenience.
