Should I get more than one quote?
Two or three is sensible. Compare what's included, not just the total: testing, certificates, making good, and how they price any extra faults found. The cheapest quote often leaves things out that turn up on the final bill.
How do Kingsteignton prices for electric showers compare with Newton Abbot?
Kingsteignton typically comes in at £435 and Newton Abbot at £440, with Devon as a whole around £420. The gap is mostly down to property type and travel, so a quote from a firm in either town is worth having.
Can I fit a bigger shower on the same cable?
Only if the cable and breaker are rated for it. Many older showers in Devon run on 6 mm cable, fine for 8.5 kW, not always for 10.5 kW. An electrician can measure it in a few minutes.
How do I check an electrician is properly registered?
Look them up on the NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA register using their name or postcode, not just the logo on a van. Ask for their registration number and a copy of their insurance. A good electrician will happily send both before you book.
Why does my electric shower keep cutting out?
Often it's the thermal cut-out because the shower's furred up with limescale, or the cable is too thin for the unit. A burning smell or browned isolator switch means stop using it and get it checked.

You should. New circuits and fuse boards get an Electrical Installation Certificate; smaller jobs get a Minor Works Certificate. Keep them with your house papers, as buyers' solicitors and insurers often ask to see them.
Who signs off electric showers work in Kingsteignton?
Your electrician, if they're on a scheme like NICEIC. They test the work, issue an Electrical Installation Certificate and notify Teignbridge District Council building control. Hiring someone who isn't registered means paying the council to inspect it, which costs far more.

National Grid (South West) runs the network here. If the whole street is dark, call 105, it's free and they'll give you a time. If it's only your house, check your trip switches first, then call an electrician.
