Where’s the job?

Scope of Works

• Remove existing oven and disconnect electrical supply

• Inspect fused spur, isolator and consumer unit to confirm circuit rating

• Fit new oven and connect using existing flex or install new flex and isolator as required

• Secure oven into the housing and make minor cupboard adjustments for a flush fit

• Isolate and test the circuit using appropriate PPE and provide test labels and brief report

• Clear the work area and remove old appliance if disposal is included in the quote

Typical Cost

Time on Site

Most straightforward oven swaps take 1–2 hours on site including testing; jobs that need a new dedicated circuit, consumer unit changes or significant cabinet work can take 4–8 hours or require a return visit

Questions to Ask Your Tradie

• Are you registered with a competent person scheme (NICEIC/NAPIT) and insured?

• Will the job require a new dedicated 32A–40A circuit or any consumer unit upgrades?

• Do you supply the oven and parts or are you fitting a customer‑supplied appliance?

• What guarantee do you provide on labour and on the electrical work?

• Will you provide an electrical safety certificate or report on completion?

• Is old appliance disposal included and are there any access or parking requirements?

How to Avoid Surprises

• Measure the cavity and have the oven spec to hand for the visit

• Ensure meter access and a clear route for cables and the engineer

• Reserve parking close to the property and mention any loading restrictions for flats

• Secure pets and protect floors and work surfaces with dust sheets

• Check if building manager or freeholder permission is needed for leasehold flats

• Confirm whether old appliance disposal and any extra parts are included before work starts
