Landlord EICRs in Walsall
Walsall has a large private rented sector, much of it in Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing that has been wired, rewired and altered repeatedly over a century.
Landlords in England are legally required to have an Electrical Installation Condition Report carried out at least every five years, and at the start of any new tenancy. You must give a copy to your tenants and, on request, to the local authority. Where a report identifies work as C1, C2 or FI, that work must be completed within 28 days, or sooner if the report specifies it.
An EICR assesses the condition of the fixed wiring, consumer unit, sockets and circuits. On older Walsall terraces the common findings are missing main protective bonding, no RCD protection, rubber or lead-sheathed cable still in circuit, and consumer units that have been added to rather than replaced.
Domestic EICRs from £220 + VAT. If remedial work is needed we will price it separately and you are under no obligation to use us for it.
Older housing stock
Terraced property brings its own problems: shared or borrowed neutrals between adjoining houses, undersized meter tails, and circuits extended into rear extensions without protection. These are the sort of things that only show up on a proper inspection and test.

Housing association and social housing work
We carry out reactive maintenance for a housing association covering the Birmingham, Walsall and Wolverhampton area. That work is the opposite of a planned installation: you are given an address and a fault description, and you are expected to turn up, diagnose it, and put it right in one visit, in an occupied home, without fuss.
It is a useful discipline. It means we are used to working in tenanted property, to being accountable for certification and paperwork, and to fixing what is actually broken rather than quoting for a replacement that is not needed.
If you are a managing agent, landlord or housing provider looking for a contractor for reactive works, EICRs or remedial programmes, get in touch.
Consumer unit changes, showers and small repairs
A large part of what we do day to day is not big projects. Consumer unit replacements are probably our single most common job, and we carry out a steady stream of them across Cannock and the surrounding towns. Replacing an old fuse board with a modern unit with RCD or RCBO protection is usually the single biggest improvement you can make to an older installation.
We also cover reactive work and small repairs, including:
- Electric shower installation and replacement
- Shower pull cord switch repairs and replacement
- Consumer unit and fuse board replacement
- Sockets, switches and light fittings that have failed
- Tripping circuits and intermittent faults
- Extractor fans, outdoor lights and garden power
Pull cord switches and electric showers are two of the most common things to fail in a domestic property, and both are jobs where people are often told they need far more work than they actually do. If it is a switch, we will replace the switch.
