• Repairs: Replacing cracked or damaged accessories, or faulty security lights which are on 24/7.
• Upgrades: Upgrading existing installations to meet current safety standards or enhance energy efficiency. 
• Maintenance: Routine checks and servicing of electrical systems to ensure safe operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as “minor works”?

Minor works generally means smaller jobs that don’t involve a new circuit – things like adding or moving a socket, replacing a light fitting, or fitting an additional switch on an existing circuit.

Do I get a certificate for minor works?

Yes – you’ll receive a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate confirming the work has been tested and meets current wiring regulations, which is worth keeping with your property paperwork.

How is this different from a full EICR?

An EICR is a full health check of your entire installation; minor works certification only covers the specific alteration or addition carried out, not the wider system.

When would I need a new circuit instead of minor works?

If the job involves a new circuit back to the consumer unit – for example a new socket circuit, a shower, or an EV charger – it’s treated as notifiable work rather than minor works, and certified accordingly.
