How It Works

From first call to switch-on.

No mystery, no run-around. Here's exactly what happens when you get in touch.

STEP 01

Tell us about your site

Call, email or use the form. Describe the property, your current power situation and what you want to achieve. We can often give a ballpark on that first conversation.

STEP 02

Site survey

For most projects we visit the site — remote locations included. We assess loads, location, access and what the system genuinely needs to cope with.

STEP 03

Design & fixed quote

A clear, itemised quote for a system designed around your property and usage — not a generic kit. No obligation, no pressure.

STEP 04

Install, certify, support

We install, commission and hand over with full NAPIT certification — the paperwork insurers and building control actually need. Ongoing servicing available.

Not sure where to start? Call 07356 289964 — we'll be straight with you about what makes sense for your site.

Why Usherwood Mechanical & Electrical

Built for remote.

Off-grid work in remote locations demands a different standard — reliable systems, proper certification, and an engineer who understands what's at stake when there's no grid to fall back on.

01

NAPIT Accredited

All work is certified and compliant. You get the paperwork, the sign-off, and the peace of mind — whether it's building regulations, insurance, a planning condition or a commercial handover.

02

Off-Grid Specialists

We don't do token off-grid jobs. We've designed and installed complete off-grid systems, wired remote properties with no grid connection, and commissioned primary generators for sites that depend on them entirely.

03

Happy to Travel

Remote locations are exactly the kind of work we're here for. We'll travel for the right project — give us a call and we'll have a straight conversation about whether it makes sense.

FAQ

Common questions.

Straight answers before you get in touch.

Will you travel to the Highlands and islands?
Yes — remote Highland properties, the Western Isles, Orkney, Shetland and other island and rural sites are exactly the kind of work we take on. Off-grid installs and generator projects are worth a conversation wherever they are. Call us and we'll be straight with you about whether it works.
Can you supply the generator as well as install it?
Yes. We can supply, install and commission generators, or install equipment you've already sourced. Either way it gets done properly and certified.
What does NAPIT accreditation mean for me?
It means the work is independently assessed, certified and legally compliant. You get a certificate of completion that satisfies building regulations, insurers and mortgage lenders — something an unaccredited contractor can't provide.
Do you offer ongoing servicing and maintenance?
Yes. Remote generators in particular need regular attention to stay reliable. We're happy to discuss ongoing service arrangements — especially important when you're depending on the system entirely.
Can one contractor handle the whole job?
Yes — that's the point. We design and install the off-grid or generator system and we're fully qualified for the general electrical work around it: distribution boards, wiring, lighting, three-phase supplies. One contractor, one certificate, one person responsible.
