Macclesfield FAQs

How quickly can you survey in Macclesfield?

Most surveys in Macclesfield can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.

Who does the work in Macclesfield?

Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.

Do you cover all of Macclesfield?

Yes. We work across Macclesfield and the SK11 and SK10 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Wilmslow, Poynton and Bramhall.

Why is the annual test done out of hours?

After a full-duration test the batteries need time to recharge, so the building is less protected for a while. Testing at the end of the day avoids that risk while people are inside.
