Heybridge is mostly newer estate housing with an old waterside village at the end of it, so the work here divides cleanly between adding and putting right.
On the estates off Broad Street Green Road and Heywood Way the unit is modern and the enquiries are additions: a charge point, a garden room, a circuit for a converted garage.
A charge point starts at the incoming supply and the main fuse rating, since that decides whether load management is needed, and only then the route to the drive. Most plots here keep that route short and inside the boundary.
Down towards the Basin it is older and closer to the water. Outside sockets, garden and boat-store supplies and boards in external cupboards all take weather, so the enclosure gets checked with the wiring.
Registration is NAPIT, member number 80815. Testing is to the wiring regulations and building control is notified through that registration where a job needs it. Listed jobs run to a set price, fault finding is charged by the hour, and you have the figure first. Monday to Friday, nine to five.
We are NAPIT registered under member number 80815, and NAPIT publish that listing on their own member search, so you can confirm it without asking us for anything. Beyond the registration, the things we hold ourselves to are simple: the fault explained in plain English, a price agreed before the work starts, and the certificate or report the job calls for handed over at the end.

I had an EV charger installed by Valand, and I couldn’t be more pleased. From the initial quote to the final inspection, the entire process was smooth and stress-free. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure the charger was positioned exactly where I wanted it. All the necessary certificates provided and warranty as well. Excellent service from start to finish!

Usually. Modern board, often a spare way, and a drive that belongs to the house. The check is the incoming supply and what is already drawing on it.
Then the sums change. Both sit on the board, so the spare capacity on paper is not always the spare capacity in practice. We read the actual arrangement before adding anything.
Then the enclosure matters as much as the board. Failed weatherproofing lets damp reach it, and that shows in the readings before it shows up as a trip.
No. An outbuilding wants its own submain, sized for what runs in it, with its own protection and its own certificate.
Yes. Heybridge is about a half-hour run from us and we cover it alongside Maldon, so it sits inside the normal working week rather than being a special trip.

Tell us the property, the postcode and what is actually happening, and add a photo of the fuse board if a circuit keeps tripping. That is usually enough for us to say which service it maps to and what the next step is. Homeowners, landlords and businesses are all welcome.
