⚠ Important: Part P and Registered Competent Persons

Certain electrical work in UK residential properties is notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations 2010. This includes consumer unit replacements, new circuits, and electrical work in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoors. Only electricians registered with a government-approved competent persons scheme such as NICEIC, NAPIT, or ELECSA may self-certify this type of work. GenadePro verifies scheme membership as part of the five-stage credentials review. Always confirm your electrician’s certification before work begins and request a certificate of completion for notifiable jobs. For a full overview of the regulations, see gov.uk/building-regulations-approval.

✅ What to Confirm Before Any Electrical Booking

Ask if the work is Part P notifiable before agreeing a price. If it is, your electrician must be registered with a government-approved scheme to self-certify.

Confirm their scheme membership via the NICEIC register or equivalent. GenadePro verifies this during onboarding but you can and should check independently for notifiable work.

Request a completion certificate for all notifiable work. This is your legal proof of compliance and is essential for building sales, insurance claims, and rental compliance.

Check insurance is in place before work begins, particularly for larger jobs. GenadePro reviews insurance documentation during the verification process.

Confirm the full scope and price in writing before confirming your booking. Use the GenadePro messaging system for a clear record of what was agreed.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Electricians in Glasgow

How do I find a verified electrician near me in Glasgow?
Download GenadePro free at genadepro.com/download. Your device routes automatically to the right app store. Create a free account, enter your Glasgow postcode, and browse background-checked, credentials-verified electricians available near you. Every profile shows certification details, real verified reviews, and upfront pricing before you confirm anything.
What is Part P and do I need to worry about it?
Part P of the Building Regulations requires that certain electrical work in UK homes is either approved by a local authority building control officer or carried out by a registered competent person who can self-certify their work. This covers jobs like consumer unit replacement, new circuits, and electrical work in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoors. Doing notifiable work without proper certification can invalidate your home insurance and cause problems if you sell your property. All electricians on GenadePro have their scheme membership reviewed during the five-stage verification process.
Do I need an EICR for my rental property in Glasgow?
Yes. Under the Housing (Scotland) Act and associated tenancy regulations, private landlords in Scotland must ensure electrical installations are inspected and tested at least every five years by a registered electrician, and a valid Electrical Installation Condition Report must be provided to tenants. GenadePro electricians can carry out EICR inspections and provide the required certification.
Is it safe to book an electrician through an app?
Provided the platform conducts genuine identity verification, credentials checking, and offers secure escrow payment protection, yes. GenadePro verifies every electrician’s identity, background, certification, and scheme membership before listing them. Your payment is held by Stripe escrow throughout the job and only released when you confirm the work is complete. Read the full guide on whether it is safe to hire a tradesperson from an app in 2026.
How much does an electrician cost per hour in Glasgow in 2026?
Electrician hourly rates in Glasgow typically run between £45 and £75 per hour for standard domestic work, with most jobs also carrying a call-out charge. More specialised work such as EV charger installation or consumer unit replacement is usually quoted as a fixed price for the whole job rather than by the hour. Every electrician on GenadePro sets their own rate, which you see fully and transparently before confirming any booking.
What payment methods are accepted on GenadePro?
All payments are processed inside the GenadePro app via Stripe. Accepted methods include credit and debit card, Apple Pay on iOS, and Google Pay on Android. Your payment is held in Stripe escrow from the moment you confirm a booking and only released to the electrician once you confirm the work is complete to your satisfaction. You never hand over cash at the door.
Are GenadePro electricians available for emergency call-outs in Glasgow?
Same-day bookings are supported on GenadePro depending on local availability. For genuine electrical emergencies involving live wires, burning smells, or complete power failure, always contact your energy supplier’s emergency line first and ensure the property is safe before booking any contractor. Once immediate safety is confirmed, you can use GenadePro to book a verified Glasgow electrician for assessment and repair as quickly as possible.
