Part P Compliance Costs — What You Need to Budget For

Notifiable electrical work in England and Wales must comply with Part P of the Building Regulations. An electrician who is a member of a government-authorised Competent Person Scheme (such as NICEIC or NAPIT) can self-certify this work — meaning they notify the scheme, which then notifies the local authority on your behalf and issues a completion certificate. This service is typically included in the electrician's charge, but it is worth confirming this when reviewing quotes.

If you use an electrician who is not scheme-registered, you would need to apply for building control approval separately before work begins — an additional cost and administrative burden. The appropriate electrical certificate (an EIC or MEIWC) must be issued on completion of all notifiable work regardless of the route taken.

Ensure any quote you receive for notifiable electrical work in Chester-le-Street explicitly includes certification costs and confirms the electrician's scheme registration.
