Choose Electrical Leads That Fit Your Work
Choose enquiry sources that match the electrical work you can competently carry out. Emergency fault-finding, landlord inspections and planned installations need different information before you quote.
Separate the work before buying enquiries
| Work | Useful first information |
|---|---|
| Urgent fault | Address, symptoms, immediate danger and access |
| Inspection or testing | Property use, installation scope and report required |
| Planned installation | Proposed work, site details and a survey opportunity |
Do not promise that an old consumer unit needs replacing simply because of its age. Inspection and findings determine the work.
Make your competence easy to check
Describe the work you cover, relevant qualifications and any scheme registration accurately. Show real examples and explain the testing, certification and notification included in a quote.
A competent-person scheme is a route to self-certifying applicable work; it is not a blanket licence covering every electrical activity. Check the government scheme guidance for the relevant scope.
Compare sources by the job won
Before paying for another month, find the jobs that service brought into your diary. Were they the fault calls, inspections or installations you wanted? Include any wasted survey visits when deciding whether to continue.
- Does the source cover your actual patch?
- What triggers a charge?
- Can you distinguish planned jobs from urgent faults?
- What do the paid jobs leave after travel and other costs?
