We work right across the wider area as well, so if you are outside the immediate district have a look at our electricians in Liverpool page for the full picture of what we cover.

Why us

Why Choose Our Electricians in Garswood?

Garswood is a small former colliery settlement, with housing strung along the old road and the railway rather than laid out in estates. Older village and colliery property with later infill housing, and outbuildings on submains.

We quote before we start, in writingAn itemised price with the remedial work priced separately, so nothing lands on the invoice that was not agreed.
The same electrician start to finishYou are not handed between a salesman, a subcontractor and an office.
Certificates issued within 24 hoursNot a fortnight later when the agent is chasing and the tenancy is waiting.
We know what the council asks forSt Helens Council wants the paperwork a particular way, and getting it wrong means doing it twice.
Tidy on site, boards back onDust sheets down, mess taken with us, and the property left as we found it.

What we tend to find: Submains to garages and outbuildings with no local protection, buried armoured cable with no record, and rewireable boards.

Appliance testing

Portable Appliance (PAT) Testing Garswood

A lot of the appliance testing round here involves outbuildings, workshops and garden offices, where kit lives in damp and cold that an office never sees. 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.

Visual inspection on every itemDamaged flex, cracked casings, scorch marks at the pins and badly wired plugs.
Earth continuity and insulation resistanceThe electrical tests that prove a class I appliance is actually safe to use.
Priced per item, with no minimum call out gamesYou get a figure before we arrive, and an asset register after.
Labelled, logged and datedSo the next person to ask, an inspector or an insurer, can see it at a glance.

Outbuildings are worth including. They are where the oldest extension leads and the most tired tools tend to end up.

Fault finding

Electrical Fault Finding Garswood

Faults on a property with outbuildings almost always sit on the submain rather than in the house, and testing from the right end saves hours.

We test rather than guessInsulation resistance and loop testing to find the circuit, then the point on it.
Live fault finding where it is safe toSome faults only show under load, so the board cannot simply be switched off.
Fixed the same visit wherever possibleWe carry the common parts, so a found fault is usually a repaired fault.
A written explanation of the causeNot just that it is fixed, but what caused it and whether it will come back.

The usual culprits around the area are the ones you would expect from the age of the housing: submains to garages and outbuildings with no local protection, buried armoured cable with no record, and rewireable boards.

Inspection and testing

Electrical Inspections and Testing Garswood

An EICR here has to take in the outbuildings, not just the house. A garage or annexe on its own submain is part of the installation and gets tested as one. Everything found is coded C1, C2 or C3.

Every circuit tested, not a sampleContinuity, insulation resistance, polarity and earth fault loop impedance.
Codes explained in plain EnglishWhat has to be done, what should be done, and what can safely be left.
Remedials priced separatelyYou are free to take the report elsewhere. We would rather you trusted the coding.
Landlord copies sent within 24 hoursInside the 28 day window the regulations give you to hand it to a tenant.

Worth booking before winter, because an outbuilding fault found in November is a different job to the same fault found in June.

Credentials

Accredited Electricians Garswood

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.

What people say

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.

EW Emma WoodPAT testing

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.
