Knowing Shirehampton helps us plan the work properly. After the First World War, the city built a large amount of council housing in Shirehampton. Shirehampton was one of four standardised showcase council estates, alongside Knowle, Hillfields and Sea Mills. Some older homes have been demolished and replaced with small infill estates such as Sunny Hill. Most of our work here is in family homes: extra sockets and lighting, fuse board upgrades, EICRs for landlords and sellers, and EV chargers on driveways.
An EICR in Shirehampton costs £195 for flats up to 2 bedrooms and £220 for houses up to 4 bedrooms. Larger homes are quoted. Everything else gets a clear price before anything is booked. Your report or certificate is emailed as soon as the work is done, often the same day, and notifiable work such as a new consumer unit or new circuits is registered with Bristol City Council building control through our NAPIT registration.

Local facts from: en.wikipedia.org, en.wikipedia.org
The age and type of a building decide most of what we find when we open up the electrics. Here is what that means in Shirehampton.
Post-war houses and estates
In Shirehampton: After the First World War, the city built a large amount of council housing in Shirehampton.
Homes from this period often have older consumer units and fewer sockets than people need now. Before adding an electric shower, an EV charger or an extension, we check the supply, the earthing and the protection on the board.
We will tell you honestly what needs doing now and what can wait, and you get a clear price before anything is booked.

Helped me sort out an electric problem very quickly and efficiently
I can’t recommend Kebbi Electrical Services enough! Not only did they diligently diagnose the electrical fault we had, but they also provided a handful of options and resolved the issue swiftly. They were polite, professional and conscientious, wearing covers over their shoes when walking around the house.I would highly recommend these guys to friends and family. Thank you again! 🙂
I had a really great experience with Kebbi Electrical Services, Azzeddine was really lovely and fixed a problem with my electrical shower quickly and at short notice. He did a great job, and was friendly and professional. I'd definitely recommend!
Fantastic service from Kebbi Electrical! They installed an EV charger for us and provided all the necessary documents and certification, clear instructions on how to use it, and even handled the National Grid notification for us. For a piece of mind EV installation, please don't go anywhere else. They can also help claim the government OZEV grant through them if you're eligible
