Define the electrical decision you need

Electrical enquiries divide into fault finding, a small alteration, a consumer-unit question, an installation condition report, remedial work or a larger rewire. State the symptom and the decision required. “Electrics need checking” is not the same brief as “provide an EICR,” and an EICR is not a quotation for every possible improvement. The accepted scope names the inspection, installation or repair outcome before attendance.

Immediate electrical warning signs

Burning smells, arcing, exposed live parts, repeated protective-device operation or water affecting electrical equipment need call-first safety triage. Keep people away and isolate only if it is safe and you are competent to do so; do not remove covers or touch wet equipment. For fire or immediate danger, use the emergency services. The website cannot diagnose a dangerous circuit or promise an arrival window from a form submission.

Fault finding is evidence-led, not parts swapping

Tell us which circuit or equipment is affected, what protective device operates, when the fault occurs and what changed before it began. Include a clear consumer-unit photograph and wide context without removing any cover. An intermittent fault may require testing under conditions that reproduce it. The investigation price basis and any repair authorisation should be distinct, so diagnosis does not silently become an open-ended replacement package.

EICR, installation certificate and remedial work are different records

An Electrical Installation Condition Report records the condition of an existing installation at the time of inspection. An installation certificate or minor-works certificate relates to new or altered work within its scope. If an EICR identifies observations, the report and codes should be reviewed before remedial work is quoted. We do not promise a satisfactory result before testing or turn every advisory observation into a compulsory sales item.

Consumer units, new circuits and rewiring

A consumer-unit change begins with the existing installation, earthing, bonding, circuit condition and available documentation. New circuits and rewires also need route planning, load requirements, access, making good and certification. Send the current board, meter area, property layout and intended appliances or room changes. A larger refurbishment should coordinate electrical first fix with joinery, plumbing, plaster and decoration instead of treating each opening separately.

Part P, notification and job-specific competence

Some electrical work in dwellings is notifiable under Building Regulations and some can use a competent-person route. The answer depends on the work, not merely the word “electrician.” The written scope should identify who designs, installs, tests, certifies and, where applicable, notifies the work. Qualifications and registrations are confirmed for the person and accepted job rather than presented as an unsupported company-wide badge.

Period interiors, cable routes and making good

Period houses and finished flats can make cable routing as important as the electrical accessory. Floor access, original plaster, cornices, panelling, tiled bathrooms and lease restrictions affect the method and reinstatement. Photographs and plans help compare concealed and surface routes before work starts. External lights, cameras or penetrations may also raise freeholder or conservation questions even where the internal circuit design is straightforward.

What a useful electrical quote or report should state

The document should identify circuits or rooms, testing assumptions, accessories or allowances, certification, notification where applicable, access and making good. For fault finding, it should distinguish the diagnostic attendance from authorised repair. For an EICR, it should state the property extent and any agreed limitations. The price and programme follow that defined scope; this hub does not invent a universal rate per socket, circuit or bedroom.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I start an electrician brief?▼
Use the online form or call 020 7101 3168. Include the postcode, a clear description of the issue or project, photographs where helpful, and access notes. Submission starts a review — it is not a confirmed booking.
Where do you accept electrician briefs?▼
You may submit for Hampstead, North West London and wider premium London postcodes. Dedicated pages currently focus on neighbourhoods such as Hampstead, Hampstead Village, Belsize Park, St John's Wood and West Hampstead, with other postcodes reviewed case by case. Coverage and timing are confirmed after the location and scope have been reviewed — not solely because an area page exists.
Is Electrician delivered by third-party traders?▼
No. Accepted work is routed to Hampstead Renovations or Hampstead Maintenance. We confirm the competence and any job-specific registration or insurance for the accepted scope before work starts.
How is electrician pricing confirmed?▼
Pricing depends on access, fabric condition, materials, programme and any approvals needed. Where we can quote, the written document states inclusions, assumptions, exclusions and payment terms. Smaller completed jobs are paid by bank transfer after completion; larger works use the deposit and final terms in the accepted quote.
Do I always need a site visit for electrician?▼
Not always. Clear photographs and a written description can be enough for straightforward scopes. Complex fabric, structural openings, concealed services or unclear access usually need a visit before a safe price basis can be written.
What electrician themes do people commonly brief?▼
Common themes include Electrician, Fault Finding, Rewiring, Consumer Units, EICR Certificates. Suitability still depends on the individual property, access and the written scope we can accept after review. These tags are a guide, not a fixed menu or price list.
What if my electrician issue is urgent or unsafe?▼
Call 020 7101 3168 first with the postcode and immediate risk so we can triage make-safe availability and the call-out basis. Online forms are better for planned electrician follow-up once the situation is controlled. A service hub page is never an attendance guarantee.
What freeholder or building access notes help for an electrician brief?▼
For flats and mansion blocks, attach any licence-to-alter, working-hours note, riser plan or managing-agent rules you already hold. Lift size, porter rules and communal corridor protection often affect how electrician attendance is programmed. Freeholder approval is never invented from a neighbourhood lander alone — those facts come from the property documents and the accepted written scope.
Does an electrician brief always need Building Control?▼
Not always. Whether approval or a competent-person route is needed depends on the defined work and property. Openings, structural alterations, drainage changes and certain electrical or heating works are more likely to need one of those routes. We flag known compliance questions in triage. A service hub does not predict a notification outcome from a neighbourhood page. Attach any existing notice or completion certificate you hold.
Can I submit an electrician brief in London?▼
Yes. Send the postcode and job details for review. Submission is not a booking; we confirm whether the brief fits, current availability and the next step.
How is electrician work priced?▼
The price depends on the accepted scope, access, timing, materials and any assessment required. We confirm a written quote or other agreed price basis before planned work starts.
How do you check electrical qualifications in London?▼
We assign personnel whose qualifications match the scope. Where registration, notification or certification is required, we confirm the applicable route for the job before work starts.
Do you issue EICRs (Electrical Installation Condition Reports) in London?▼
Yes. EICR packages can be scoped for landlords, homeowners and property buyers when the brief requires a condition report. Landlords should confirm the current legal requirements for their property and tenure.
Can you work on period properties in London?▼
Yes, subject to assessment. Period properties may combine wiring from several eras and require careful cable routing, access planning and making good, all of which are recorded in the scope.
Do you upgrade consumer units and add sockets in London?▼
Yes. Consumer unit upgrades, socket and lighting additions can be scoped when photographs and access are clear. Larger rewires are confirmed as a separate written programme when the brief requires whole-property work.
