In detail
What each job covers
Fuse Board Upgrades
Removal of the old fuse board or consumer unit, installation of a new modern unit with updated circuit breakers, and testing to ensure all circuits work safely and correctly.
When you need it. Old fuse boxes with rewirable fuses, frequent tripping of circuits, or inability to run modern appliances without overloading.
Before you get in touch. Know the age of your property and current electrical issues. Check your electricity meter location.
Socket & Switch Installation
Running cable from the circuit breaker to the new location, installing the socket or switch, testing the circuit, and making good the wall.
When you need it. Rooms lack enough power points for modern devices, or light switches are in inconvenient locations.
Before you get in touch. Identify exactly where you want sockets or switches. Check what's on the opposite side of walls.
Lighting Installation
Running electrical cable, fitting the light fitting to ceiling or wall, connecting wiring safely, and testing that the light works correctly with its switch.
When you need it. Dark rooms need better lighting, outdated light fittings need replacing, or you want decorative or task lighting added.
Before you get in touch. Choose your light fittings in advance. Note ceiling height and any structural obstacles in the installation area.
EV Charger Installation
Assessing the electrical supply, running dedicated cabling from the consumer unit, installing the charger unit, and testing it for safe operation.
When you need it. You own an electric vehicle and need home or workplace charging, or want to future-proof your property.

PAT Testing
Visual inspection of appliances for damage, electrical testing using a PAT tester, and labelling items with test results and next test date.

Good to know
Common questions
General guidance about electricians in the UK, not specific to any one business.
How often should portable appliances be PAT tested?
Frequency depends on the appliance type and environment. Office equipment typically needs testing annually, while kitchen appliances may need it more often. High-use environments require more frequent testing than domestic settings.
What's the difference between a fuse box and a consumer unit?
Fuse boxes use rewirable fuses that melt when overloaded, requiring replacement. Consumer units use circuit breakers that flip when overloaded and can be switched back on, offering better protection and convenience.
Can I install a socket myself, or does an electrician need to do it?
All electrical work on fixed wiring must be done safely. Many people believe DIY socket installation is acceptable, but work should meet current Building Regulations. Using a qualified electrician ensures compliance and safety.
What makes old wiring dangerous?
Old cloth and rubber insulation becomes brittle and cracks, exposing live conductors and risking electric shock or fire. Old wiring also cannot safely handle modern electrical loads from contemporary appliances and devices.
How long does a full house rewire take?
Duration varies with property size and complexity. A small flat might take one to two weeks; a larger house typically takes three to four weeks. The work disrupts plasterwork and can affect decoration.
Can any electrician install an EV charger?
EV charger installation requires specialist knowledge of the charger specifications, electrical supply capacity, and safety standards. Not all electricians have this expertise, so check suitability before appointing someone.
