What electrical work does Paul carry out in Addlestone?
Addlestone has a mix of flats, family houses and newer developments, so typical requests range from landlord testing and communal supplies to fault finding in older houses and additions to new homes.
Flats and communal areas
Blocks of flats have a landlord supply for stairwells, door entry and lighting, alongside each flat's own installation. Paul carried out a consumer unit replacement and EICR for a communal block in Chertsey, and can test and report on communal supplies and individual flats.
Rented homes
Private landlords in England must have the installation inspected and tested at least every five years, give tenants a copy of the report and complete any required remedial work within 28 days. The EICR page explains the process and the pricing.
Older family houses
Houses that have been altered over several decades can develop faults where old and new wiring meet. A fault finding visit traces tripping and dead circuits, and an inspection shows whether a rewire is worth planning.
New-build homes
Newer homes rarely need repairs but often need additions, such as an EV charger, extra sockets for a home office or outdoor power for the garden.
Can Paul help landlords and letting agents in Addlestone?
Yes, Paul carries out EICRs for landlords and letting agents in Addlestone, explains every observation code in the report, and quotes separately for any remedial work it identifies.
Domestic EICRs are priced at £60 per consumer unit plus £30 per circuit, and the inspection usually takes two to four hours for a standard property. Clear circuit labels and access to every room keep the visit efficient.
A report with any C1, C2 or FI observation is unsatisfactory, and under the electrical safety standards for rented homes the work must be completed within 28 days or any shorter period the report specifies. Paul's remedial work is inspected, tested and certified.

Are there conservation areas in Addlestone?
Yes, Addlestone has conservation areas including Caxton Avenue and part of the Wey Navigation, designated by Runnymede Borough Council, so external electrical fittings there may need extra thought.
Runnymede Borough Council, whose Civic Centre is in Addlestone, publishes the Caxton Avenue conservation area boundary on its website. The borough also has more than 300 listed buildings, so it is worth checking a property's status before work that changes its appearance.
Historic England advises talking to the planning authority before any work to a listed building, as unauthorised work can be a criminal offence.
Points to check before work on a protected property
- Whether the building is listed or locally listed
- Whether external lights or a charger will be visible from the street
- Where cables can run without cutting into historic fabric
- How the finished work will be tested and certified
Runnymede's planning team can confirm whether consent is needed before Paul starts.

Addlestone electrician FAQs
Do you cover Addlestone and New Haw?
Yes, Paul covers Addlestone, New Haw, Woodham, Row Town and the rest of KT15, plus nearby Chertsey and Byfleet. There is no call-out fee and no charge for a quote.
Can you test a block of flats in Addlestone?
Yes, Paul inspects and tests communal landlord supplies and individual flats, and has carried out a consumer unit replacement and EICR for a communal block of flats in nearby Chertsey. Each report sets out the condition of the installation and any observation codes.
How often does a rented property need an EICR?
Private rented homes in England must be inspected and tested at least every five years, or sooner if the previous report says so. Landlords must give existing tenants a copy within 28 days of the inspection.
Is there a call-out fee in Addlestone?
No, Paul does not charge a call-out fee or a fee for a quote in Addlestone. Every job is quoted individually, because the cost of electrical work depends on the existing installation and what is involved.
Do I need to contact Runnymede council about electrical work?
No, for notifiable electrical work you do not need to contact Runnymede Borough Council yourself. Paul notifies the work through NAPIT, and the local authority then issues your Building Regulations compliance certificate.
What does a landlord EICR include?
A landlord EICR covers the fixed installation: the consumer unit, protective devices, earthing and bonding, cabling, a sample of accessories and full instrument testing. It does not cover portable appliances, which fall under PAT testing.
Can you trace a fault that keeps coming back?
Yes, a fault that returns after previous repairs usually means the underlying cause was never found. Paul tests the affected circuits methodically, isolating each part in turn, so the repair addresses the real problem.
Can you install an EV charger at a new-build home in Addlestone?
Yes, Paul checks the incoming supply, main fuse and consumer unit, then installs the charger on its own dedicated circuit and handles the network operator notification. Many new homes built since 2022 already have a charge point under Part S of the Building Regulations, and if yours has developed a fault Paul can inspect or replace it.
