Electrical testing and condition reports

CG Electrical

CG Electrical are a Qualified & Certified Electricians

With new laws and legislations, it is important to ensure your electrical install is safe and fit for purpose. Get in touch with us today for your EICR carried out by trained and qualified professionals

As of April 2020, it has been law as a landlord to have a 5-year electrical certificate produced, this ensures that the property is of a satisfactory standard and the installation is safe for continued use by the tenant/s.

The Electrical installation condition reports are carried out and any observations are categorised in order of how severe the issues are. This ranges from C1 -C3
C1, being the most severe generally this will be due to access to a live part, or something that is dangerous at the time of test.
C3 – is an observation that has been made that is not inherently dangerous however it is fully recommend that the works are still carried out.

If your EICR/ Electrical installation condition report comes back with a C1 or C2 observation, then unfortunately this observation will require remedial action before a satisfactory certificate can be issued.
Always ensure a certificate is issued, if its unsatisfactory should you want to, you’ll be able to use this to obtain another quote for the remedial works, and this is also good if you have lost trust/ faith in the original electrician.

Our engineers on multiple occasions have attended site following a test and have been shocked to find items have been listed that are frankly incorrect.

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 thee option to say no, however this kind of observation should be made during the initial visit, to avoid any hidden surprises

Can not recommend these guys enough.

After having some concerns about quality of the electrical installation to my sheds, I contacted CG Electrical who then sent out an Electrician to me to have a look. He inspected everything and subsequently told me it was unsafe.

 

He talked me through everything that was wrong with it and put it into layman’s terms for me so I could clearly understand what the issues were and everything he said made perfect sense. The inspection and quote was no fee and no obligation and as soon as everything was agreed the electrician was back as soon as possible to suit me to get the work done. The work itself went above and beyond my expectations despite him being aware that it was only a shed and I wasn’t too fussed on how it looked. The price was definitely more than fair, especially for the job undertaken.

 

Overall, I have no complaints whatsoever and will definitely be contacting CG Electrical with any further electrical needs. Can not recommend these guys enough.

10/10 service and installation

 

I used Electrician Aveley earlier this week. They were quick to give me a quote, they were very polite and hard workers. They left my house clean and tidy when they had finished as well. They even gave me a follow up courtesy call the following day to ensure everything was ok for me. I highly recommend this company and will defiantly be using them for my future projects

Absolutely no hesitation in recommending CJ Electrical

Absolutely no hesitation in recommending Electrician Aveley I called in to complete the installation of a shower and was so happy with what they did, I have since had them back to change my fuse board and completely rewire a large extension for me. I found Connor to be so helpful and the quality of work was second to none, the price was exactly as quoted on every occasion and everything was left clean and tidy…. Connor even hoovered the carpets before leaving every day! I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Connor and CJ Electrical to anyone and they are certainly our go to for all our future electrical work. Highly recommended!!

Pendant lights

I contacted Connor last Friday at the very last minute! I was hosting a dinner party and wanted some new pendant lights installed to go over my dining table. He arrived early the next morning on time and got to work! He did an amazing job with no mess whatsoever! I am so pleased with the lights, they look amazing ! And to get them installed at such short notice is just brilliant. I will definitely be using CG electrical for all my future electrical needs that’s for sure!!

Thank you for my new lights

I hired Electrician Aveley to install 2 bedside wall lights with new switches underneath in my bedroom. The outcome was way better than I could have ever imagined. The electrician that fitted them was efficient, polite and very professional. Fitted around my time needs and my busy schedule. I would 100% recommend for simple or bigger tasks. Thank you for my new lights 🙂

    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.

    How Can I Pay?
