What certificates do electricians give you after they have completed a job?
By law a qualified electrician should provide certificates for new installations ( Electrical Installation Certificate, EIC), minor alterations (Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate, MEIWC) and inspections (Electrical Installation Condition Reports, EICR). Electricians should be fully insured and members of NICEIC/NAPIT.
So for peace of mind and to improve the value and safety of your home, always use a qualified professional electrician for electrical repairs and modifications to your home.
If you need an electrician HaMuch has plenty of NICEIC/NAPIT registered professionals ready to help you make your home bright and safe.
Can I fix electrical problems in my home by myself?
Although it can be tempting to try and repair an overloaded socket or to fit a new plug yourself, this can be dangerous and also illegal without the specialist knowledge of a trained electrician.
In extreme cases, overloaded sockets or exposed wires can lead to electrical fires, so it’s much better to call the experts as soon as you notice something isn’t quite right. Don’t leave it too late, because If you leave electrical problems unfixed, you could end up shelling out a significant sum of money to remedy it.

HaMuch makes it easy to find the right electrician for the job. Post a job and get quotes from multiple electricians to gauge what the price should be. Then decide which electrician has the skills to complete the work within budget.
