What to agree before testing after renovation?
New sockets or changes to a consumer unit are reasons to arrange checks of the affected installation. The easiest time to plan is before the renovation ends.
Record what changed
Ask for a record of changes, circuit labels and available documentation. Distinguish new work from the retained installation. Work-in-progress photographs can help discussion but do not replace testing or the contractor’s records.
Agree access and responsibilities
Say whether the installer is still on site and whether any remedial work can be coordinated. Agree access to the consumer unit and rooms, as well as necessary outages. Do not remove covers yourself.
Base handover on the agreed scope
Confirm which checks and documents are needed for the changes before commissioning. The report should identify tested items and limitations. If faults are found, agree repairs and whether retesting is needed.
