From the 1950s and 1960s aerospace-era homes that make up much of Patchway, to the modern new-build properties in Charlton Hayes — our team covers both. EICRs, rewires, EV chargers, consumer unit replacements and 24/7 emergency call-out across BS34.
Much of Patchway was built in the 1950s and 1960s to house workers from the Rolls-Royce aero engine plant and the broader Bristol and BAE Systems aerospace industry. Those properties are now 50 to 70 years old. The electrical installations from this era — rubber-sheathed wiring, rewirable ceramic fuse boxes, two-core cabling with no earth conductor — are frequently in need of updating and, in many cases, should never have been left this long without inspection.
Immediately to the south, Charlton Hayes is a large, modern development built on the former Filton airfield site. Properties here are newer, often well-specified, and the demand is different: EV charger installations for commuters, additional circuits, and consumer unit upgrades as families expand.
Our team covers both Patchway and Charlton Hayes regularly. Yate is approximately 10 miles away — we are in the area without inflated travel charges.
Properties built for the aerospace workforce often have rubber-sheathed wiring, old ceramic fuse boxes with no RCD protection, and aluminium cabling in some cases. These are the installations most in need of an EICR and possible rewire.
Newer properties on the former Filton airfield site have modern consumer units and modern wiring, but strong demand for EV charger installation, additional circuits and smart-home additions.

07590 517472Answered honestly, from Patchway and Charlton Hayes.
Almost certainly yes, especially if one has not been carried out in the last five years. Properties built in the 1950s and 1960s for the aerospace workforce — a large proportion of Patchway housing — frequently have rubber-sheathed or aluminium wiring, ceramic fuse boxes with no RCD protection, and earthing that does not meet current standards. An EICR is the right first step: it gives you a clear, honest picture of the installation without committing you to any remedial work. We issue EICR certificates from £197 with same-day reports. Landlords are legally required to hold a valid EICR under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020.
