Why should homeowners choose an NICEIC electrician?
Cutting corners can have dangerous consequences, so in the interest of safety homeowners should use a professional and fully qualified electrician to carry out electrical work in their home, such as one registered with NICEIC.
NICEIC was set up in the 1950s and is the leading independent voluntary electrical regulatory body assessing the competence of electricians. NICEIC maintains a register of around 24,000 Approved Contractors and Domestic Installers.
To enroll with NICEIC all electricians, and anyone they employ, must comply with national safety standards and codes of practice. They are regularly inspected, which means NICEIC is a symbol you can trust, and is only displayed by electricians offering a dependable service.

Insurance Backed Warranty
The NICEIC Insurance Backed Warranty covers work undertaken by contractors registered to the NICEIC Domestic Installer Scheme that is notifiable to Building Control. The purpose of the Warranty is to protect consumers should any work be found not to comply with the Building Regulations under circumstances where the contractor is no longer in business to undertake the necessary remedial work.
The financial limit placed on the remedial work is £25,000 in respect of any one installation per period of insurance and the warranty is valid for a period of six years from the date of completion of the original work.
