Llandaff homes and their wiring
Llandaff around the cathedral is a conservation area of Victorian and Edwardian villas and older cottages, many of them substantial houses with large rooms, cellars and solid walls. Wiring work in them is mostly about doing it once and doing it carefully: planning cable routes so original features are left alone, and leaving the installation documented for whoever comes next.
Across the river, Llandaff North is mostly terraced streets with a more straightforward layout and a good number of rented homes, while Danescourt and the newer estates towards Radyr are later houses whose wiring is generally sound but whose consumer units and lighting are often now dated.
With Cardiff Met's Llandaff campus nearby, there is a steady student and young-professional rental market here, which means landlords working to the Welsh five-yearly EICR and the smoke and carbon monoxide alarm rules that came in with the Renting Homes (Wales) Act.
What we are asked to do in Llandaff
- Full and partial rewires of period houses, phased so the household can stay put.
- EICRs and remedial work for landlords in Llandaff North and around the campus.
- Lighting redesigns, consumer unit upgrades and EV chargers in the newer estates.
Every job is certified, and anything notifiable is notified through our scheme so you get the building regulations compliance certificate. The Welsh rules on that are not the same as England's — see what electrical work needs signing off in Wales.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Llandaff North and Danescourt?
Yes, both, along with Fairwater and across to Radyr, where we also have a dedicated page.
I let a house near the Cardiff Met campus. What do I need?
In Wales: an EICR at least every five years, a mains-powered interlinked smoke alarm on every storey, and a CO alarm in any room with a gas, oil or solid fuel appliance. We can do the report and the alarms in one visit. See our EICR and smoke alarm pages for detail.
Will a rewire damage the period features in my house?
We plan the cable routes with you before anything is lifted. Floor voids, cellars and lofts do most of the work in houses like these, and chasing is kept to the walls where there is no other way.
