Electrical Visual Inspection in Hallam

It’s a visual-only assessment of accessible electrical components. In Hallam, we focus on the switchboard condition, visible cabling and conduit (often in garages and sheds), a sample of power points and switches, and smoke alarms where visible. We note obvious safety concerns like heat damage, exposed wiring or missing safety devices and recommend electrician follow-up where needed.

No. This is a visual inspection only and does not include electrical testing, dismantling the switchboard, removing covers, or issuing a compliance certificate. If we identify risk indicators—such as scorching at breakers, deteriorated wiring, or missing RCD coverage—we’ll recommend a licensed electrician carries out testing and any required rectification to meet safety and regulatory expectations.

We can’t confirm performance without testing, but we can identify common visual signs that upgrades are likely needed. These include older-style components, poor labelling, insufficient safety switch protection, corrosion, heat damage, or unsafe openings. If we see any of these issues, we’ll clearly document them and advise the next steps to discuss with a licensed electrician.

Many Hallam properties use garages and sheds as workshops or storage areas and have later electrical additions like extra outlets, lighting or door motors. These spaces can also have weather exposure and physical damage risks. We pay close attention to visible conduit, junction points and fittings for cracking, UV damage, moisture staining and non-weatherproof accessories that can create shock or fault hazards.

Yes, as a visual check. We note whether smoke alarms are present where visible and whether there are obvious issues like missing units, damage, heavy paint contamination or unsuitable positioning. We don’t test operation or certify compliance, but we will flag concerns so you can arrange replacement, upgrades or compliance checks with an appropriate professional.
