Quick Answers

The questions we get asked most

Straight answers to what landlords and homeowners ask us before they book.

What is an EICR?

An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a documented inspection of a property's fixed electrical installation. It checks consumer units, circuits, sockets and earthing against BS 7671, then issues a Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory verdict with any C1/C2/C3 codes for remedial work. In Northern Ireland every privately rented home must hold a valid EICR by law, renewed at least every 5 years; owner-occupied homes are usually inspected every 10 years.

How much does a house rewire cost?

A full house rewire depends on the size of the property and the scope of work. Most domestic rewires take 5–10 working days and include a new consumer unit, BS 7671-compliant cabling and certification. We give you a free, fixed written quote before any work starts. Request one using the form on this page.

Do you need a permit to install an EV charger at home?

No planning permission is required for a standard home EV charger installation in Northern Ireland provided the unit is under 0.2m³ and not facing a road. Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent. Installations must be notified under the relevant building regulations and completed by a competent person.

How quickly do you respond to an electrical fault?

Evolv Electrical aims to respond to urgent callouts as quickly as possible. For booked-in fault diagnosis we typically attend quickly by arrangement. Call 028 9045 1004 for emergency response.

FAQs

Questions, answered

Do you provide free quotes?

Yes. Every quote is free and no-obligation. We assess the work and give you a fixed price in writing before anything starts, and the price we quote is the price you pay.

Are you fully insured and accredited?

Yes. Evolv Electrical is fully insured and a NICEIC Approved Contractor, and every installation is completed to current UK wiring regulations (BS 7671).

What areas do you cover?

We're based in Belfast and cover all of Northern Ireland, for homes and businesses.

Can you do landlord safety certificates (EICRs)?

Yes, EICRs are one of our core services. Every private tenancy in Northern Ireland must now have a valid EICR by law, renewed at least every 5 years, under the 2024 private rented sector regulations. We cover single properties and whole portfolios, with clear certificates and any remedial work quoted separately.

How quickly can you come out for an emergency callout?

For faults and emergencies we aim to get to you as fast as possible. Call us on 028 9045 1004 and we'll give you a realistic time, not a vague promise.

Do you work for both domestic and commercial customers?

Yes. We cover domestic, commercial and industrial work, from a single socket or landlord EICR through to full office fit-outs, three-phase installations and factory lighting.
