Surveys/Inspections - Gas and Electrical –
NICEIC & CORGI registered Mechanical & Electrical Engineers
Domestic
A large number of home buyers are putting themselves at risk by not asking for an electrical survey and are potentially facing huge electrical costs.
Most buyers assume that a property survey covers electrics but in fact it does not. Buyers consider surveys to be a formality rather than a vital investigation into whether a property is sound or not.
With the average completion time for a house purchase being just nine weeks it is not surprising that some new home owners are missing vital information on the state of their new property.
A typical domestic electrical inspection costs around £100 whereas it can cost up to £4000 to rewire a house. The most common problems discovered by the engineers at the Company are loose connections that can lead to fires or electrical shocks.
According to government figures around 10% of domestic fires are electrical and of these a third are directly due to old or bad wiring. This equates to over 2000 electrical shock accidents and 9,300 electrical fires in the home every year.
Nearly 40% of homes in Britain date back to before 1945, making it crucial for homeowners to check the condition of their electrical installation. The NICEIC and Institute of Electrical Engineers recommend that home electrical systems are tested on a change of occupancy or at least every ten years.
