“Ten years on Colchester housing stock and I have seen most of it: terraces where the lighting circuit has been extended once too often, boards fitted before RCDs were standard, new builds with sockets nowhere near the kitchen. I check the earthing, the bonding and whether the supply will carry another load before I price anything, because the age of a house settles nothing on its own.”

WhatsAppWhat is an EICR and do landlords in Wivenhoe need one?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a detailed inspection of the fixed wiring in a property. Landlords are legally required to have an EICR carried out at least every five years or at each change of tenancy to verify that the installation is safe for continued use.
How do I know if my fuse board needs replacing?
Fuse boards with wooden backs, cast iron casings, rewirable fuse wire, or those lacking RCD protection do not meet modern electrical standards. If your board regularly trips, lacks space for new circuits, or shows signs of heat damage, an upgrade to a modern consumer unit is recommended.
Can an EV charger be installed on my existing domestic supply?
Most homes can support a standard 7.4kW electric vehicle charger. Before installation, we check your main incoming fuse rating, earthing arrangement, and spare consumer unit capacity to ensure the extra demand can be handled safely.
What happens if an electrical fault cannot be found immediately?
We use calibrated diagnostic instruments to test circuit continuity, insulation resistance, and earth fault loops. By systematically isolating sections of the circuit, we identify the exact root cause, whether it is damaged wiring, a failed component, or water ingress.
Are you registered to sign off notifiable electrical work?
Yes. Lighting Electrical is NAPIT registered. This means notifiable domestic and commercial electrical installations are tested, certified, and notified in compliance with current building and wiring regulations.
