The Eccles, Barton and Winton selective licensing scheme commenced on 1 September 2022, covers 95 named streets and ends on 1 September 2027.
We build an Eccles electrician a rewire page, a board page and a certificate page written around the licensing streets. Our own totals of the Valuation Office stock table put 45.0 per cent of the five Eccles census areas before 1940. No money until you have seen it live, your domain, live in 7 days.
Our own totals of the Valuation Office table CTSOP4.1, stock at 31 March 2025, cover 18,850 dwellings across the five census areas that make up Eccles. 5,240 predate 1919, 27.8 per cent, 3,250 are inter war, 17.2 per cent, and 8,490 predate 1940, 45.0 per cent. The published Salford row records 135,720 properties, 16.1 per cent pre 1919 and 31.8 per cent pre 1940.
Inside the town, Patricroft is 47.2 per cent pre 1919 and 61.8 per cent pre 1940, the Eccles area itself is 29.8 per cent pre 1919 and Barton upon Irwell 28.2 per cent. Winton and Westwood is 44.6 per cent inter war and 60.6 per cent pre 1940, and Peel Green is 43.6 per cent built between 1945 and 1972.
Census 2021 records 26.8 per cent of Salford households in private renting, and our own sum for the five census areas that make up the town, Eccles, Patricroft, Winton and Westwood, Peel Green and Barton upon Irwell, is 3,695 households out of 17,698, 20.9 per cent, with Patricroft at 29.9 per cent and Peel Green at 15.3 per cent. So the pages split three ways: a strip out rewire page for Patricroft, a board page for Winton and Peel Green, and a certificate page written around the licensing streets.
3,350 properties, 47.2 per cent pre 1919 and 61.8 per cent pre 1940, with 29.9 per cent of households renting privately (Valuation Office stock tables, stock at 31 March 2025, and our own total from Census 2021).
Rewires and board replacements on Victorian terraces, and landlord EICR certificates in a patch that also sits inside the selective licensing designation.
5,910 properties in the Eccles area, 29.8 per cent pre 1919, 27.7 per cent built between 1945 and 1972 and 17.9 per cent since 2000, with 21.6 per cent renting privately (Valuation Office stock tables, stock at 31 March 2025, and our own total from Census 2021). Monton Green is one of the conservation areas on Salford's list.
Larger house rewires with a decorating job behind them, plus commercial small works on the town centre units and certificate work on the flats.
3,250 properties, 44.6 per cent inter war and 60.6 per cent pre 1940, with 16.5 per cent renting privately (Valuation Office stock tables, stock at 31 March 2025, and our own total from Census 2021).
Inter war semi work rather than post war: consumer unit changes, rewired kitchen and immersion circuits, outside sockets and garden lighting.
2,800 properties, 43.6 per cent built between 1945 and 1972 and 22.9 per cent between 1973 and 1999, with 15.3 per cent renting privately (Valuation Office stock tables, stock at 31 March 2025, and our own total from Census 2021).
Post war estate housing, with chargers where there is a drive. We would show your completed board changes and rewires, explaining how you assessed the existing installation.
3,540 properties, 28.2 per cent pre 1919 and 26.0 per cent built between 1945 and 1972, with 19.4 per cent renting privately (Valuation Office stock tables, stock at 31 March 2025, and our own total from Census 2021). Barton-upon-Irwell is one of the conservation areas on Salford's list.
Mixed age streets, so rewires and board changes side by side, with the licensing designation covering part of the same ground.
Salford runs selective licensing and Eccles is inside it. The council page for the designation says "This scheme commenced on 1 September 2022 and will last for five years. The scheme will end on 1 September 2027", lists 95 named streets, and notes that "all properties on a boundary (ie both side of the street) are included within the designation". Salford names two selective licensing designations in the city, this one and Broughton, Kersal and Broughton Park. The council's own how licensing works page does not make an EICR a stated licence condition; it says a licence holder can upload "safety certificates (gas, fire, electrical and portable appliance)" to the licence (Salford City Council, selective licensing in Eccles, Barton and Winton, read 16 September 2026).
The designation covers those 95 streets. Outside them this selective licensing scheme does not apply, and mandatory HMO licensing may still apply. The duty that covers the rest of the town is national: the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 require the installation inspected and tested by a qualified person at least every five years, a copy of the report to the existing tenant within 28 days of the test and to a new tenant before they move in, remedial or further investigative work within 28 days, or sooner if the report requires it, and allow a financial penalty of up to 40,000 pounds for a breach. The 2025 amendment extended the regime to the social rented sector (gov.uk guidance on electrical safety standards in the private and social rented sectors, read 16 September 2026).
Salford's conservation areas page names 16 areas, including Barton-upon-Irwell, Ellesmere Park and Monton Green. That bears on outside work rather than on wiring. The Planning Portal sets the charger limits: 0.2 cubic metres for a wall mounted outlet and its casing, nothing within the curtilage of a listed building, an upstand no higher than 1.6 metres in the curtilage of a dwellinghouse and one per parking space, and off street parking. Permitted development rights can be removed by an article 4 direction in a conservation area or designated heritage site (Planning Portal, electric vehicle charging permitted development, read 16 September 2026).
The line that belongs on the certificate page is the check: look the address up on the council street list, look for any article 4 direction, then say what the job needs. A landlord on one of the 95 streets then knows exactly where they stand.
The local field, 16 September 2026
Google Maps returned 40 places for electricians in Eccles on 16 September 2026. Ten have an Eccles postal address, M30, and six of those are electrical contractors, one of them without a website. The other four M30 entries are two car repair garages, a contractor and a construction firm. One of the six local firms runs its site on Wix.
Most of the pack is Salford and wider Manchester: Worsley, Swinton, Urmston, Prestwich, Wythenshawe and Stretford firms all appear, plus one firm in Essex whose name contains Eccles. The local search for the same phrase returned eleven results, three of them carrying no website in the listing (OpenSEO local search results, read 16 September 2026). What we would do with that is give Patricroft, the town centre, Monton, Winton, Peel Green and Barton a page each.
Three Eccles firms whose websites we opened and checked. One is built around a single job, one gives each job its own service page, and one puts its scheme badges and its explaining on the site rather than into a phone call.
Built on WordPress. It carries a page per area, photographs of its own jobs and reviews on the page. Quotes come through a form.
The whole site is built around one job, with separate pages for landlord electrical safety certificates, EICR Manchester and EICR Salford, and counts of blocks and emergency lights maintained stated as numbers.
Built on WordPress. It carries photographs of its own jobs and reviews on the page. It has no page per area. Quotes come through a form, and the phone number sits in the header.
Each job has its own service page, full house rewires, lighting and power upgrades, consumer unit replacement, EICR and reactive maintenance, with a portfolio and a testimonials page alongside them.
Built on WordPress. It carries photographs of its own jobs and reviews on the page. It has no page per area. Quotes come through a form.
It shows its scheme badges as images on the home page and runs a gallery, an FAQ page and a blog, so the proof and the explaining are on the site rather than in a phone call.
One keeps the phone number in the header, all three carry reviews on the page, and one runs a page per area. Each one opened and checked 16 September 2026.
"electricians in Eccles"
no recorded monthly volume (OpenSEO keyword data, September 2026)
Ten phrases were run for Eccles and all ten returned nothing at all, so the page is built on the jobs. The town page names Patricroft, Monton, Winton, Peel Green and Barton.
"EICR Eccles"
no recorded monthly volume (OpenSEO keyword data, September 2026)
The designation covers 95 named streets to 1 September 2027, and Salford lets a licence holder upload electrical safety certificates. The certificate page is where those streets get named.
"house rewire Eccles"
no recorded monthly volume (OpenSEO keyword data, September 2026)
Patricroft is 47.2 per cent pre 1919 and 61.8 per cent pre 1940. A strip out rewire page belongs to that half of the town.
"fuse board replacement Eccles"
no recorded monthly volume (OpenSEO keyword data, September 2026)
Winton and Westwood is 44.6 per cent inter war and Peel Green 43.6 per cent post war. That is the board page rather than the rewire page.
"emergency electrician Eccles"
no recorded monthly volume (OpenSEO keyword data, September 2026)
The callout page: hours answered, how fast you get there, and what an agent should send you before you set off.
"EV charger installation Eccles"
no recorded monthly volume (OpenSEO keyword data, September 2026)
Our own DfT total puts 355 privately kept battery electric cars in the five Eccles areas at the first quarter of 2026, about 20.1 per 1,000 households. Salford had 283 public charging devices at 1 July 2026.
Of the ten phrases checked, none returned a monthly volume. The unmeasured phrases shown here are "electricians in Eccles", "EICR Eccles", "house rewire Eccles", "fuse board replacement Eccles", "emergency electrician Eccles" and "EV charger installation Eccles" (OpenSEO keyword metrics, read 16 September 2026).
The nearest build of ours you can open
A driveways firm in Solihull, with a page per job and a page per area. The electrical version has the same bones.
What every electrician site needs, whatever the town, is on our electricians page.
It means more landlords keeping paperwork straight on a known patch. The Eccles, Barton and Winton designation commenced on 1 September 2022, covers 95 named streets and ends on 1 September 2027, and Salford lets a licence holder upload electrical safety certificates to the licence. A page naming those streets speaks to them directly.
Both, on the figures. Census 2021 puts 26.8 per cent of Salford households in private renting, and our own sum for the five Eccles areas is 20.9 per cent, with Patricroft at 29.9 per cent. Under the 2020 regulations most of those homes need a five yearly inspection.
The town splits that way. Patricroft is 47.2 per cent pre 1919, which is strip out rewire work, while Winton and Westwood is 44.6 per cent inter war and Peel Green 43.6 per cent post war, which is a board change and a couple of circuits (Valuation Office stock tables, stock at 31 March 2025). One page cannot price both honestly.
The stock table puts it the other way. Winton and Westwood is 44.6 per cent inter war and 60.6 per cent pre 1940 (Valuation Office stock tables, stock at 31 March 2025). Peel Green is the post war end at 43.6 per cent built between 1945 and 1972, and the pages should be written to match.
