Mill Town Roots, Commuter Belt Growth — Two Very Different Electrical Demands

Macclesfield is a town of two distinct characters electrically. The Victorian and Edwardian housing stock in areas like Hurdsfield, Park Lane and around the town centre contains ageing electrical installations that frequently need upgrading — rewires, consumer unit replacements, and EICR testing that often reveals remedial work required. This is traditional, solid domestic electrical work that we carry out regularly.

At the same time, Macclesfield’s identity as a commuter town for Manchester and beyond has driven growth in the surrounding villages — Prestbury, Bollington, Poynton — where the demand is increasingly for EV chargers, solar panels, and modern domestic electrical installations in larger properties. We handle both ends of the spectrum with the same team and the same standards.

All work is carried out by our own NAPIT-accredited, CHAS-certified electricians. No subcontractors. All work certified to BS 7671 (18th Edition Wiring Regulations).

EICR Testing for Macclesfield Landlords

Macclesfield has a substantial private rental market, with demand concentrated in the older Victorian and Edwardian housing stock in and around the town centre. Many of these properties contain electrical installations that are well past their safe working life. If you let residential property in Macclesfield or surrounding areas including Bollington, Prestbury or Poynton, an EICR is a legal requirement under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020.

EICRs must be carried out every five years. Copies go to existing tenants within 28 days and to new tenants before occupation. Non-compliance carries civil penalties of up to £30,000. We carry out EICRs across Macclesfield and SK10 and SK11 with all remedial work handled in-house.
