St Ives has more holiday lets per square mile than almost anywhere else in Cornwall - which means a steady demand for EICRs, compliance certificates, and the kind of responsive electrical work that keeps bookings on track. I cover the whole TR26 area, including Carbis Bay, Lelant, and St Erth.
The town's housing stock is dominated by older granite cottages and Victorian terraces, many of which have been converted into holiday accommodation or HMOs. Wiring in these properties is often older than it looks - period features tend to be preserved while the electrical installation behind them gets patched rather than replaced. Narrow streets and limited parking mean site logistics need planning. The tourist season compresses demand into a short window, so I try to schedule EICR work and remedials in the shoulder months where possible.
The owner of a holiday let near St Ives needed to comply with updated fire alarm regulations for short-term lets. Their existing battery alarms were no longer sufficient, and their insurer was asking for evidence that the property had mains-powered, interlinked alarms in place before the summer season.
