Know before booking what is likely to be tested, what paperwork may apply, and when the job becomes a
formal report or needs registered electrical delivery.

Relevant testing is part of the agreed work, but paperwork depends on the actual scope. A focused repair,
a larger installation and a formal inspection do not all end with the same document, so the paperwork
position is made clear before booking.
What this usually means
The agreed work is checked and the result is explained clearly at handover.
For work that needs electrical inspection, testing, certification or notification, we arrange the
appropriate registered professional and confirm responsibilities before work starts.
If the job is really an inspection or report job, that should be identified early rather than added on
at the end.
What paperwork might apply
Some work on existing circuits may call for a minor works certificate.
Larger installation work may need a different certificate position than a small repair or swap.
The actual scope, responsibilities, paperwork, timing and price are confirmed before booking.
An EICR is a separate inspection report, not the default paperwork for every repair, replacement or
install.
What can change the scope
New circuits, consumer unit changes and work in special locations can change the route.
Landlord paperwork, sale deadlines, insurer requirements or an existing report can change what needs
to be booked.
Photos can suggest the likely next step, but the final paperwork still depends on what is actually
found and completed.
