We are enrolled with the NICEIC and listed with SELECT, and as such can certify work to the requirements of the

Building (Scotland) Act 2003.

We are registered to carry out an electrical report and issue the appropriate electrical certification.

This certification will be required as part of the paperwork when submitting a completion certificate application.

An inspection can be compared to the MOT for a car; if the car is unsafe it will not pass the MOT.

If the electrical installation does not meet the current wiring and building regulations it will fail an inspection.

Approved Certifier of Construction [Building (Scotland) Act 2003]

If the installation almost complies a little work may be carried out to bring the installation up to

an acceptable standard. This may be included in the price of the inspection.

If the electrical installation is sub-standard and requires work to bring it up to an acceptable standard then a report detailing costs and indicating the measures required to achieve compliance, will be given. When the remedial work is carried out by a.b.c. Electrical then there is no re-test fee (we only charge for labour used)

Please note that we do not provide original certificates for any work until full payment has been received, this is company policy.

When do I receive my certificate?

Where we have to wait on payment for more than a few days it is company policy to issue the certificate after a waiting period.

This waiting period will be the same as the amount of time between invoice / work completion (whichever is later) and the date funds have cleared (usually 7 working days for a cheque). If a client waits 20 days to pay then the paperwork will be issued 20 days from the day the funds clear.

This will not apply if the client has made alternative arrangement prior to starting the work- such as an agreed payment date.
