Consett FAQs

Do you cover all of Consett?

Yes. We work across Consett and the DH8 and NE17 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Stanley, Blaydon and Stocksfield.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.

Who does the work in Consett?

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.

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.
