In detail

What each job covers

Fuse Board Upgrades

Assessment of the existing fuse box, disconnection of circuits, removal of the old unit, installation of the new consumer unit, reconnection of circuits, testing and certification.

When you need it. Fuses keep blowing, the fusebox is old or corroded, you need to add more circuits, or your insurer requires an upgrade.

Before you get in touch. Know roughly when your house was built. Have a record of any recent electrical work done.

Rewiring

Stripping out old wiring from walls and ceilings, installing new cable to modern standards, adding new switch positions and socket outlets, testing all circuits thoroughly.

When you need it. The house has original cloth wiring, you are extending the property, or you plan a major renovation.

Before you get in touch. Be prepared for disruption. Have the electricity supplier's number to hand for emergencies.

Socket & Switch Installation

Locating the right position, running cable safely through walls or along surfaces, fitting the box and plate, connecting the socket or switch correctly, testing.

When you need it. You need a power point in a new location, an extra socket for a kitchen appliance, or a switch by a new doorway.

Before you get in touch. Note the room where you need it. Indicate roughly where on the wall. Clear furniture away from the area.

Lighting Installation

Planning the position and type of fitting, running new cable from the consumer unit or existing circuit, installing the fitting securely, connecting and testing.

When you need it. A room lacks enough light, you are upgrading old fittings, or you want decorative lighting added.

Before you get in touch. Decide what type of light you want and roughly where. Check the ceiling for joists or solid concrete.

Assessing your electrical supply, installing a dedicated circuit and protective devices, positioning and securing the charger unit, testing for safety compliance.

When you need it. You own an electric vehicle and need a safe, convenient way to charge at home regularly.

Good to know

Common questions

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

What is a consumer unit?

A consumer unit is the main electrical panel that distributes power to all circuits in a property. It contains breakers or fuses that protect circuits and the building from overload and fire risk.

Why do lights flicker in an old house?

Flickering often signals loose connections, overloaded circuits, or wiring that cannot handle modern electrical demand. Old cloth-insulated wiring deteriorates and creates intermittent contact problems.

Can a homeowner install a socket themselves?

Any work inside the house must comply with Building Regulations. A qualified electrician must carry out most installations and issue a certificate of compliance as proof to your insurer and future buyers.

How often should appliances be PAT tested?

In a home, testing frequency depends on the appliance type and use. Equipment used daily or in harsh conditions may need annual testing. A workplace typically requires annual or six-monthly testing by policy.

What should I ask before hiring an electrician?

Ask if they can provide certification for the work, whether they can offer a quotation, what the timescale is, and whether they will test and inspect once finished. Confirm they understand the job scope.

Are extension cords safe for permanent use?

Extension cords are intended as temporary solutions only. For permanent power needs, a new socket outlet should be installed. Overloaded or damaged cords overheat and present fire and shock hazards.
