Research available from the electrical safety body , NAPIT, has found that the public are mostly unaware of the electrical dangers lurking in their homes. Householders that were questioned had electrical hazards in their homes which included exposed bare wires , loose cables , overloaded sockets and old wiring.
The research also shows a considerable amount of ignorance about the electrical condition of the electrics in their homes,40% of people had no idea about the age of the wiring within their home and 1 in 5 said their wiring was as much as 30 years old. More than half of those questioned did not know how often house wiring should be checked by a qualified electrician, despite faulty electrics being responsible for an average of 12,500 house fires, 750 serious injuries and 10 deaths a year.
Your electrical system ages and degrades over time and with use, you would have a yearly MOT on a car , an occasional medical check up for yourself and yet you will live in a building surrounded by an electrical installation that could potentially be a death trap. A simple electrical inspection carried out by a qualified electrician can easily put your mind at rest.
A visual inspection would cost you between £85 to £120 whilst a full inspection will be from £120 to £500 and more depending on how many circuits, and fuse boards are to be inspected , prices for electricians may vary , however be aware that some cheap quotes may mean that they have not allowed enough time to carry out the report correctly. Ensure you use a registered electrician

!! Take Care When Selecting an Electrician !!
Many electricians in Bristol are simply not interested in the small jobs.They want the choice jobs and will drop you when a bigger,supposedly more lucrative project comes in.
Others advertise as electricians having no qualifications.They thrive on the basis that you don't understand what they do and as a result charging for shoddy,and often dangerous electrical work.
