An upgrade planned for your property.
You might be replacing an older fusebox, adding circuits for an extension or acting on an inspection report. We start by understanding the installation and the reason for the upgrade.
The proposed work can include a replacement consumer unit, the agreed circuit protection and testing. Existing faults or other necessary improvements may need separate attention, so these should be identified and discussed rather than hidden in an unclear price.
We will explain the expected interruption to power, the access needed and the documentation relevant to the work. If you are planning further improvements, tell us now so future capacity can be considered.
Planning the work at your Pitsea property
An inspection has recommended improvements
Include the full report when requesting a quote. Replacing the consumer unit and repairing existing circuit faults can be different parts of the job and should be identified clearly in the scope.
You are comparing different quotations
Compare the circuit count, proposed equipment, associated work, testing and documentation. A headline price is less useful when the quotes cover different scopes or leave existing faults unexplained.
What affects the quotation?
The number of circuits, selected protection, condition of the existing installation and any associated improvements affect the price. A board replacement quotation should explain the testing and what happens if existing faults are found.
Tell us what you want included, who will supply any selected equipment and whether other trades are involved. Your quotation should make the agreed work, access arrangements and any exclusions clear before a date is booked.
What to send with your enquiry
Send a clear photograph of the consumer unit with its cover closed, plus any existing inspection report. Tell us about planned new circuits.
For a property in Pitsea, include the full postcode, the contact for access and your preferred timing. Where another person needs to approve the work, include that arrangement in the enquiry so the next step can be agreed with the right person.
Consumer Unit Replacement in Pitsea: your questions
Can you quote from a photograph?
A photograph is a useful starting point. The final scope may need an inspection of the existing installation.
Will a new consumer unit fix all electrical faults?
No. Existing circuit faults may still need investigation and repair. We will explain any additional work identified.
How much disruption is involved?
The power will need to be switched off for the work. We will discuss timing and access before the appointment.
