What to ask when hiring electricians

electricians may take on work such as lighting, sockets, wiring changes, fault finding and electrical upgrades. The best fit depends on the property, the specification and whether other services need to coordinate with the job.

Define the work

Describe the issue, preferred outcome and any constraints. Ask whether an inspection is needed before a firm quote can be prepared.

Compare the written scope

Explain the property and work required. Confirm who will do the work and what test records or certification apply. Check inclusions, exclusions, materials, access and timescales.

Check suitability

Ask about similar completed projects, service coverage and who will carry out the work. Verify credentials and insurance that apply.

What should a quote from electricians include?

Ask for a clear description of the work, materials, exclusions, start and finish expectations, payment stages and how changes will be agreed.
