A Modderfontein electrical alteration should identify ceiling access, finished surfaces and making-good responsibilities before cables or fittings are changed.

01

Show the proposed points

Mark intended outlets, lights or controls on a room plan and note the desired use. Measurements should be confirmed on site before work.

  • Point layout and intended use
  • Ceiling hatches and finished surfaces
  • Making-good and other-trade responsibilities
02

Identify access constraints

Record ceiling type, hatches, cupboards, occupied rooms and surfaces that must be protected. Do not promise concealed routing before the electrician inspects access.

03

Agree the finish boundary

Clarify who handles opening and repairing ceilings, painting, cabinetry or waterproofing. The electrical scope should describe installation, testing and handover separately.

Can concealed cable routes be guaranteed before a Modderfontein site assessment?+

Usually not. Existing structure, access and services must be inspected before a route and making-good scope can be confirmed.
