We Know Nantwich — and Its Properties

Portcullis Power Solutions is based on Stock Lane in Wybunbury, two minutes from Nantwich town centre. We are not a franchise, a call centre, or a directory that passes your job to whoever is available. When you call us, our own qualified electricians do the work.

Nantwich is a town with real electrical challenges. The Georgian and Victorian properties around the town centre and conservation area often contain wiring that is decades overdue for replacement — rubber-insulated cables, round-pin sockets, outdated fuse boxes that are no longer safe or compliant. We carry out full rewires and consumer unit upgrades on period properties regularly and understand the care that older buildings demand.

At the same time, the newer estates at Stapeley, Wybunbury and surrounding villages are driving demand for EV charger installations and solar panels. We cover both ends of the spectrum — and everything in between.

EICR Testing for Nantwich Landlords

Nantwich has a strong private rental market. Period properties in and around the town centre are particularly popular with tenants — but they are also the buildings most likely to have ageing electrical installations that fail EICR inspections. If you let any residential property in Nantwich or the surrounding villages including Wybunbury, Stapeley and Willaston, 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 must go to existing tenants within 28 days and to new tenants before occupation. Non-compliance carries civil penalties of up to £30,000 per breach. We carry out EICRs across Nantwich and handle all remedial work — including rewires and consumer unit upgrades — in-house, so you only need to deal with one contractor.
