Hertford FAQs

Do you cover all of Hertford?

Yes. We work across Hertford and the SG13, SG14 and SG12 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Ware, Hoddesdon and Welwyn Garden City.

Can you work out of hours in Hertford?

Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Hertford offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.

Who does the work in Hertford?

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.
