In detail

What each job covers

Rewiring

Installation of new cables throughout the property, new sockets, switches, and consumer unit. Testing and certification of the complete installation.

When you need it. Wiring is cloth-covered and crumbling, you want more sockets, lights flicker, or the electrics feel unsafe.

Before you get in touch. List problem areas and what you want to add. Check access to lofts, under-floor spaces, and walls.

Socket & Switch Installation

Cutting holes in walls, running new cables from the circuit board, installing and wiring new sockets or switches, making good, and testing.

When you need it. You need more sockets in a room, want switches in new locations, or existing ones are damaged or loose.

Before you get in touch. Decide exactly where you want them. Check if walls are solid, hollow, or likely to contain pipes.

Lighting Installation

Running new cables, installing ceiling roses or downlighters, wiring to switches, connecting fittings, and testing the circuit.

When you need it. You want new lights in a room, dimmer switches, or to upgrade from old fittings to LED downlighters.

Before you get in touch. Sketch where you want lights and switches. Check ceiling type and whether you can access the loft.

EV Charger Installation

Assessing the supply, running a dedicated circuit from the consumer unit, installing the charge point, testing, and providing safety certification.

When you need it. You've bought an electric vehicle and need a home charging point installed safely and to standard.

Before you get in touch. Confirm your vehicle type and charger model. Check you have off-street parking and mains supply location.

PAT Testing

Visual inspection and electrical testing of appliances, labelling with pass or fail stickers, and producing a compliance report.

When you need it. Your workplace insurance or local authority requires proof that portable appliances are electrically safe.

Before you get in touch. Gather all portable appliances you want tested. Check your insurance policy for testing frequency requirements.

Good to know

Common questions

General guidance about electricians in the UK, not specific to any one business.

What is the difference between a fuse box and a consumer unit?

A fuse box uses replaceable fuses that blow when there's a fault. A consumer unit uses automatic circuit breakers that trip and reset. Consumer units are safer, more reliable, and required by current building regulations.

How often should portable appliances be PAT tested?

Frequency depends on the appliance type and how heavily it's used. Office equipment typically needs testing annually. High-risk items like extension leads may need testing every 6 months. The Health and Safety Executive provides guidance for specific environments.

Can I install my own sockets and switches?

In England, minor electrical work including socket and switch installation can be done by householders, but it must meet Building Regulations. Work must be either notified to the local authority or completed to an approved standard and certified.

What's involved in a full house rewire?

A complete rewire replaces all cables from the consumer unit throughout the property, installs new sockets and switches, and includes a new consumer unit if needed. It's disruptive work involving wall chasing, plastering, and testing of every circuit.

Do I need planning permission for an EV charger?

Most domestic EV chargers do not need planning permission or building regulation approval if they are installed on your own property. However, listed buildings and some conservation areas have restrictions. Check with your local planning authority.

Why do my lights flicker?

Flickering can be caused by loose connections at switches or the consumer unit, incompatible LED bulbs on a dimmer, an overloaded circuit, or a fault with the supply. An electrician can test to identify the cause.
