A short walk from the centre

Fuse Box Replacement in Southgate

Southgate is the Crawley neighbourhood closest to the town centre, on its south west side, with the station close by. Homes this near the centre suit commuters and renters alike, and for landlords a board change is often what an EICR asks for. We do both, at fixed prices.

Houses, flats and conversions near the centre

Expect post war terraces and semis across much of Southgate, with flats and maisonettes mixed in. Houses this close to a town centre are often let room by room or divided into flats, and each conversion tends to leave its own mix of boards, meters and cabling behind it.

In a converted property we trace which board feeds which flat and which circuits are shared, such as hall lighting or a fire alarm. Every circuit is tested, labelled and recorded, so the next inspector, and the next tenant, can see exactly what the installation is.

When an EICR says the board must go

In England, a private landlord has to get the electrics of a let home inspected and tested no less than once every five years, with tenants handed their own copy of the report. Where an old fuse box has rewireable fuses, lacks RCD protection or has a damaged casing, the report can come back unsatisfactory, and the remedial work is then due within 28 days, sometimes less.

We can replace the board and carry out the new EICR at the same visit, with the EICR at £99 when booked alongside a board. A standalone EICR is £175 to £350, or from £350 for an HMO. Certificates are emailed to you or your agent within 48 hours.

  • EICR £99 with a board
  • Standalone EICR £175 to £350
  • HMO EICR from £350
  • Paperwork sent to your agent

Southgate visits and booking

The A23 and M23 carry us from Brighton & Hove almost to the door in Southgate. We charge nothing for travel. Landlords can text us pictures of the board and sort out tenant access themselves or through an agent. Tripping or a burning smell is one for a phone call, not a text, and we aim to be there that same day.

Once the report and a picture of the board reach us, a fixed price goes back to you. We aim to book the work inside your 28 day remedial window, and fitting most boards takes 4 to 6 hours. Afterwards you receive the installation certificate, which serves as written proof for your tenant and the council that the remedial work is done.

It deals with the board related issues an inspector would flag: missing RCD protection, an unsuitable enclosure and no surge protection. It cannot cure faults in the wiring beyond the board, but we test every circuit while we are there and tell you about anything that would still show up on the next EICR, so you can plan for it.

Yes. If you own more than one flat in a converted house, we can replace both boards and test both installations on the same day, keeping disruption to a single visit for the building. Each flat gets its own certificate, and any landlord supply for shared hallways or stairs is identified and recorded separately.
