Repairs & upgrades
Electrical Repairs, Fault Finding and Upgrades in St Andrews
Proper fault finding means inspecting and testing the installation to identify the likely cause before deciding what should be repaired or replaced. Intermittent faults may require further investigation.
- Tripping circuits
- Repeated electrical faults
- Faulty sockets
- Lighting faults
- Loss of power
- Damaged accessories
- Consumer unit concerns
- Urgent electrical callouts
Available upgrades include additional sockets, indoor and exterior lighting, outdoor power, smoke and heat alarms, consumer unit replacements and smart controls. See our services overview.
Renovations
Electrical Work for Renovations and Property Improvements
We can help with kitchens, bathrooms, extensions, conversions, garden rooms and home offices, including lighting, sockets, appliance supplies, ventilation, outdoor power and rewiring requirements.
Planning should consider the final layout, furniture, appliances, lighting, other trades, decoration, cable routes and future use before work begins.
Rented property
Electrical Services for St Andrews Landlords and Letting Agents
We provide EICRs, remedial work, alarms and between-tenancy repairs for landlords, letting agents and property managers.
Private landlords in Scotland must ensure an electrical safety inspection is carried out before a property is let for the first time and then at intervals of no more than five years, or sooner where the previous inspection recommends a shorter interval. A current inspection does not need to be repeated solely because the tenancy changes. The fixed electrical installation is recorded through an EICR, while landlord-supplied electrical equipment is covered by separate in-service inspection and testing records, commonly called PAT testing. The most recent EICR and relevant equipment-testing report must be provided to a new tenant before the tenancy begins.

For rented or managed property, permission from the owner or managing agent must be in place before installation.

Practicalities
Planning Access and Minimising Disruption
The planning required depends on the type and scale of work. Possible considerations include:
- Tenants or occupants
- Student tenancy changeovers
- Holiday-property bookings
- Business opening hours
- Furniture and belongings
- Consumer unit and circuit access
- Floor and wall access
- Other trades
- Plastering and decoration
- Parking and material access
- Protected building fabric
- Power shutdowns
We’ll agree access and practical arrangements before work begins, including any disruption that may be unavoidable.
Completion
Inspection, Testing, Certification and Handover
Work is inspected and tested as appropriate. Documentation depends on the job: a rewire, consumer unit replacement, EICR and socket repair do not produce identical records.
Where an EICR is commissioned, the report records observations and classification codes.
- Newly installed work tested
- Affected circuits checked
- Appropriate certification
- EICR reports where commissioned
- Remedial-work documentation where applicable
- Work explained in plain terms
- Handover information
- Future recommendations identified separately
