| I recently reviewed two periodic inspection reports that has been carried out on the same property. (£160 for 8 circuits) When I looked at the two reports I should have been looking at two more or less identical documents. I was astounded at the difference between them and went to investigate myself. I found a number of observations had been missed including a category 1 fault on an RCD main switch. The inspections had been carried out by a third year apprentice and an electrician with no formal qualifications. These guys are currently working for an NICEIC Approved Contractor. The moral of the story? Make sure that the person doing the report has the qualifications and experience to do this kind of work. Mark Aspin.

| Full NICEIC Periodic Inspection report on an average house with say 6 circuits takes at least half a day. Usually there is no electrical record at all so extra time will be required to establish the make up of each circuit. Also quite often a home has had electrical additions made (not by electricians)including new kitchens, bathrooms, extensions to circuits etc which all needs thorough inspecting - all of which takes extra time. Starting price £155 including the production of a web based report. House with no records and additions made, is £200 (good proportion of day). Larger houses £200 upwards. As others have said, a proper inspection takes at least half a day to do properly let alone completing report. Less than that then its a cowboy job.
