Liverpool banned the building of back to back houses in 1861, so the terraced streets here are the better built generation that came after it, sat alongside the merchant villas that went up along Aigburth Drive in the 1880s and 1890s. Large villas, a lot of them divided into flats, with Victorian terraces around them and the usual run of loft and rear extensions.
What we tend to find: Conversions sharing a supply meant for one house, rubber insulated cable still in ceiling voids, and circuits added one at a time off an existing ring.
Portable Appliance (PAT) Testing Aigburth
Shared houses are where most of our appliance testing goes. A landlord supplies the white goods, the tenants bring everything else, and by the second year nobody is sure which is which. Every appliance gets a visual inspection first, because most faults are found by looking at the plug, the flex and the casing rather than by the tester.
If you let a shared house, the sensible pattern is testing between tenancies while it is empty, and keeping the register with the licence paperwork.
Electrical Fault Finding Aigburth
In a converted terrace the first question is always which flat the fault is actually in, because the circuits rarely stop where the front doors do.
The usual culprits around the area are the ones you would expect from the age of the housing: conversions sharing a supply meant for one house, rubber insulated cable still in ceiling voids, and circuits added one at a time off an existing ring.
Electrical Inspections and Testing Aigburth
An EICR on a converted property has to establish what belongs to which dwelling before it can report on any of it, and that is usually the part nobody has documented. Everything found is coded C1, C2 or C3.
Each flat needs its own report. One certificate covering a whole converted building is not compliant and will not satisfy a licensing team.
Accredited Electricians Aigburth
Accreditation is the part most people never check, and it is the part that decides whether your certificate is worth anything. Our electricians in the area work under a scheme that audits the work, not just the paperwork.
NAPIT approved contractor, member 66463
Assessed on real jobs, not a desk exercise. Our registration can be checked on the NAPIT register before you let anyone near your board.
Registered Competent Person
The scheme that lets us self certify notifiable work and register it with building control, so you are not chasing a separate certificate.
Part P registered
Domestic work is notified properly, which matters the day you sell the property and a solicitor asks for the paperwork.
Fully insured, with every job certified
Public liability in place on every visit, and an EICR or installation certificate issued at the end of it rather than weeks later.
If you want to see the certificates before booking, ask. Our electricians would rather you checked.
Electricians Aigburth - Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have my Aigburth home's electrics inspected?
For domestic properties, electrical safety inspections should occur at least every 10 years. However, we recommend the area homeowners consider testing every 5 years for enhanced peace of mind. More frequent inspections may be preferable if your home wiring dates back over 20 years.
Do your electricians work on commercial properties too?
Yes indeed! Our fully qualified electricians have extensive experience across both residential and commercial sites in the area and the wider area. We appreciate the differing regulatory standards for business premises and tailor our inspection, testing and fault finding services accordingly.
Can outdoor electrics be checked as part of your testing services?
Certainly! Our the area testing packages can incorporate external wiring to garages, sheds, hot tubs, outdoor kitchens and more. Identifying any weather-related degradation early on prevents serious issues emerging. Please chat to us about including outdoor electrics when next booking testing.

Rated 4.9 by homeowners and landlords
Word of mouth is still where most of the work comes from, and that only happens if the job is done right and the price is what we said it would be.
We needed PAT tests done at short notice and he did a great job. Highly recommend DH Electrical Services and I will definitely be using them again.
Dave was quick to respond and gave a very reasonable price. Lee came to carry out the work and did a very tidy and thorough job on a bank holiday Monday.
Dave and his team are fantastic and I highly recommend them. They have worked on 3 separate jobs for us so far as we slowly modernise our home.
Great service from Dave and his team. Friendly and did a great job. Needed power and plugs installing. Finished in two days. Would definitely recommend.
