How pricing works

Standard jobs have standard prices, published on the service pages rather than quoted on the day. A landlord EICR is from £150 + VAT (£180 total) for properties up to 3 bedrooms. House rewires run from £4,000 to £11,000 inc VAT depending on property size — the rewire cost calculator gives an instant ballpark before anyone visits. Fault finding is charged as a diagnostic visit with test equipment, not an open-ended hourly hunt.

Anything that needs a survey — consumer unit upgrades, kitchen rewires, larger jobs — gets a free itemised quote. The price on the quote is the price on the invoice unless something genuinely unforeseeable turns up, and if it does, it's discussed before any extra work happens.

Landlords and letting agents

A large share of the work is rental compliance: landlord EICRs, remedial work on C1 and C2 defects, and the paperwork that goes with selective licensing in Leicester. The NICEIC Rental Safety Report scheme registration covers exactly this. Reports are issued promptly after inspection, and re-inspection after remedials is handled by the same person who wrote the original report.

For a plain-English breakdown of what the certificate costs and what affects the price, see the landlord electrical safety certificate cost guide.
