Electrician and Greenock homes
Greenock has sandstone tenements and terraces in the town centre and Victorian villas in the West End, with post-war housing up the hillsides in Larkfield, Branchton and Braeside. It's one of the wetter towns in Scotland, and exposed to the Firth of Clyde, so roofs, gutters and damp get a lot of attention.
- Older tenement flats often still have dated wiring and consumer units. An EICR is a sensible first step before a sale or let.
- Solid stone walls make chasing in new cables harder, so rewires in older stone houses can take longer than in modern homes.
- Larger older houses may have been partly rewired over the years, so an EICR helps work out what really needs doing.
- Outdoor sockets and lighting on exposed coastal sites need weatherproof (IP-rated) fittings.
- Ex-council homes are often rewired at different times from their neighbours, so an EICR shows where yours stands.
Areas covered include Town Centre, West End, Cartsdyke, Larkfield, Branchton, Bow Farm, Braeside, Gibshill, Cowdenknowes, Fancy Farm, Ravenscraig, Gourock. Local authority: Inverclyde Council.

- They contact you to arrange a visit or a quote. You decide whether to go ahead.
To be upfront about what we are: we're an independent quote-request service, not a trade company. We don't vet, insure or guarantee anyone's work, so always get a written quote and check the registrations that apply to your job.
