Low-friction quotes are not enough on their own. Push these points into writing before you let a low price or early availability become the deciding factor.
No mention of certification, test results, or competent person scheme registration.
A price that excludes fault tracing yet claims to cover all remedial electrical work.
Reluctance to confirm circuit loading, isolation time, or consumer unit suitability.
Vague promises to 'sort the paperwork later' after completion.
