Good to know
Before you book, read how to check an electrician is qualified.
How to pay less
- Provide the previous EICR, circuit schedules, drawings, and access details before quotation
- Agree which circuits can be isolated during normal hours and which require a planned shutdown
- Make every distribution board and test point accessible before the inspector arrives
- Compare quotes using the same circuit count, scope, exclusions, and reporting requirements
- When remedial labour follows failed circuits, compare day rates against Tradehand's Commercial Electrician Rates guide before you accept a quote
