Make the visit work for you
Start with your
Lockleaze property.
Lockleaze includes established homes and new housing, so start with the stage your property has reached. For a recently completed home, share the handover information and explain the fault or addition you need discussed. For an extension or refurbishment, send both the current and proposed layouts. Max can then consider the connection between the existing installation and the new work, including routes, controls and the builder's programme. Keep changes to drawings visible so the electrical plan stays aligned with the space being built.
Discuss the job with MaxKeep handover records with the installation
For a recently completed home, existing certificates and the original contact can help explain reported faults. Distinguish that concern from new alterations so an investigation and an addition are not priced as the same job.
Include this in my enquiryConnect new rooms to the existing layout
An extension can affect switches, supplies and cable routes in retained rooms. Use current and proposed plans together so changes to doors, appliances and circulation are included in the electrical work.

Moved equipment or doorways can change electrical positions and routes. Identify who communicates revisions and when floors or ceilings will close so installation follows the drawing the builder is actually using.

Electrical work in Lockleaze: your questions.
Does an extension always need a new consumer unit?
No. The new circuits, proposed equipment and existing protection need to be assessed together. Some installations can support the additions; others need associated work or a replacement board. The recommendation should explain what the extension changes and why particular work is necessary.
Ask Max about thisShould electrical faults be fixed before adding new sockets?
Existing faults should be identified before new work is connected to the affected installation. Additional sockets or lighting will not resolve the underlying problem. Investigation may therefore come first, with the improvements priced separately once the existing condition is understood.
Ask Max about thisCan smart switches replace ordinary switches?
Sometimes, but compatibility depends on the lighting, switch wiring and chosen controls. Some products have specific wiring or connection requirements. Check the exact system before ordering, and decide how the lights should work from the wall as well as through an app.
Ask Max about thisWhen should the electrician be involved in an extension?
Before first fix and ideally while room layouts, equipment and the build sequence are still being agreed. Socket positions, lighting, supplies and changes to retained rooms need to fit the drawings. Early planning reduces the risk of reopening plaster, insulation or fitted units.
Ask Max about thisIs an EICR the certificate for newly installed wiring?
No. An EICR reports on the condition of an existing installation. New electrical work has the relevant installation certification for its scope. Keep those documents with the property records and ask what testing and completion paperwork are included when new work is quoted.
