INVERNESS · CULLODEN · WESTHILL · BALLOCH · KINMYLIES
Inverness is a proper drive from Tain but it's a run we do most weeks. New-build compliance, EICRs on Victorian tenements in the town centre, EV chargers in Westhill and Balloch, holiday-let packages for the Airbnb crowd. Book a full day of work and the travel cost more or less disappears into the labour.
Straight talk: if you want us for a single socket change in Inverness, the travel cost makes it a bad deal for you. What works — and what most of our Inverness customers do — is bundle. An EICR, a consumer unit upgrade and two extra sockets in one visit. Or a landlord booking three flats for their annual EICR on the same day. That way the travel gets diluted across the whole invoice and the maths adds up.
Culloden, Westhill, Balloch and Milton of Leys have a lot of new-build and extension activity. If your builder or warrant surveyor wants an electrical designer and installer under the warrant, we can do the notification to Highland Council, the design, the install and the completion certificate as one package. Full BS 7671 sign-off, no chasing between trades.
We carry out EICRs for properties in Inverness and explain the findings in plain language. If the EICR is unsatisfactory, we’ll discuss the findings with you, explain the recommended remedial work and provide a quotation where required.
Inverness has more STL applications going through Highland Council than anywhere else in the north. Full compliance pack — EICR, PAT for every appliance, interlinked smoke alarms, one bundled certificate for your licence application. Send us the address and property size, we'll come back with a fixed price for the lot.

Every one of them working to the same standard we do, and we all know how each other work. That's what stops jobs falling apart on site — no arguments about who does what, no gaps between trades, no fingers pointing when something goes wrong. If your job in Inverness needs more than sparks work, we can quote and manage the whole thing.
