From a consumer unit upgrade or EICR landlord inspection through to a full house rewire or EV charge point installation, our team handles the full scope.
Thinking about upgrading your heating, cooling or energy system? Here is exactly what to expect when you book with LGS, from first contact to a fully commissioned installation.
Got questions about our electrical services or EV charger installations? Here are the answers to some of the ones we're asked most often.
Yes. All electrical work is carried out by NICEIC-registered electricians, working to BS 7671 wiring regulations and Part P building regulations, with the correct certification issued on completion.
If you're a landlord in the private rented sector, yes, you're legally required to hold a valid EICR every five years. Homeowners aren't legally required to test, but it's recommended every ten years, or when buying or selling a property.
A full rewire typically takes between 5 to 10 days depending on the size of the property, while partial rewires can often be completed more quickly.
Older fuse boards often lack RCD or RCBO protection and are one of the most common reasons a property fails an EICR. Upgrading to a modern consumer unit brings your electrics in line with 18th Edition wiring regulations.
Most domestic EV charger installations don't require planning permission, though we'll advise you if your property is an exception.
Yes. Depending on the job, we issue the appropriate certification, including EICR reports, Part P self-certification for rewires, and Minor Works Certificates for smaller jobs such as new sockets or lighting circuits.
