Alarm and camera installationWhy Choose Our Electricians in Great Sankey
Great Sankey expanded hard through the new town years, which puts most of its housing in a narrow band of decades. Large estates wired within a few years of each other, so boards and cabling reach the end of their life together.
What we tend to find: Whole streets of boards at the same age, no RCD protection on socket circuits, and extensions added to supplies never resized for them.
Portable Appliance (PAT) Testing Great Sankey
Appliance testing splits about evenly between rented homes and small businesses, and the approach is the same for both: look at it properly before testing it. 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.
Send a rough list of what you have and we will give you a figure per item before we come out, not after.
Electrical Fault Finding Great Sankey
A breaker that trips once is a nuisance. One that trips every time it rains, or only when the shower runs, is telling you something specific.
The usual culprits around the area are the ones you would expect from the age of the housing: whole streets of boards at the same age, no RCD protection on socket circuits, and extensions added to supplies never resized for them.
Electrical Inspections and Testing Great Sankey
An EICR is a condition report, not a pass or fail certificate. It tells you what is dangerous now, what will be dangerous soon, and what simply does not meet the current regulations. Everything found is coded C1, C2 or C3.
Rented property needs one every five years or at change of tenancy, whichever comes first. Owner occupiers are not obliged, but ten years is the usual advice.
Accredited Electricians Great Sankey
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.

Rated 5.0 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.
