In detail
What each job covers
Fuse Board Upgrades
Removal of the old fuse box, installation of a modern consumer unit with circuit breakers, earthing and bonding checks, testing of all circuits, and certification of the work.
When you need it. When your fuse box regularly trips, you have no spare circuits for new appliances, or the board is old and corroded.
Before you get in touch. Note which circuits or appliances cause problems. Check if your property has earthing and bonding already fitted.
Rewiring
Running new cables through walls and ceilings, installing new sockets and switches, connecting to the consumer unit, full testing of all circuits, and issuing an electrical installation certificate.
When you need it. When rewiring an older property, after major renovation, or when existing wiring is unsafe or insufficient for modern use.
Before you get in touch. Identify areas that need work and think about socket and switch placement. Budget time for disruption.
Socket & Switch Installation
Routing cable to the new location, cutting outlet boxes into walls, wiring sockets or switches, testing for correct polarity and earthing, and making good the surrounding area.
When you need it. When you need power or control in a new location, or existing sockets are inconveniently positioned or overloaded.
Before you get in touch. Decide where you want sockets or switches and measure distances. Check what's behind walls to avoid pipes and cables.
Lighting Installation
Running electrical cable from the circuit, installing a ceiling rose or fitting bracket, wiring the light fixture, connecting to the switch circuit, and testing the installation.
When you need it. When adding new light fittings, upgrading to LED, installing outdoor lights, or adding lights to a previously unlit area.
Before you get in touch. Choose your light fitting and confirm the location. Check whether you need a dimmer or separate switch control.
EV Charger Installation
Assessing the supply capacity, installing a dedicated circuit from the consumer unit, running cable to the charge point location, fitting the wallbox or pedestal, testing, and certification.
When you need it. When buying an electric vehicle and needing to install a home charging point rather than relying on public chargers.
Before you get in touch. Confirm your vehicle type and charger model. Check your electricity supply and decide on the charger location.
PAT Testing
Visual inspection of each appliance for damage, electrical testing of earth continuity and insulation, recording results on a certificate, and labelling items as passed or failed.

Good to know
Common questions
General guidance about electricians in the UK, not specific to any one business.
How often does electrical equipment need PAT testing?
Testing frequency depends on the equipment type and workplace. Office equipment often requires annual testing, while portable tools in construction may need testing every three to six months. High-risk items like extension leads need more frequent checks.
What is an EICR and why might I need one?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report checks the safety of all fixed wiring and circuits in a property. Landlords are required to have one every five years. Homeowners should consider one if their property is old or wiring is causing concerns.
Can I install a socket myself or does it need an electrician?
Any new electrical work must be carried out by a qualified electrician and signed off with a certificate. DIY electrical work is dangerous and may invalidate insurance or breach building regulations and tenancy agreements.
Why does my electrics trip when I plug things in?
Tripping usually means the circuit is overloaded or there is an earth fault. Older homes with limited circuits trip more easily. A fault might indicate damaged wiring or a faulty appliance that needs investigation by an electrician.
What is the difference between an RCD and an MCB?
An MCB (miniature circuit breaker) protects against overload and short circuits. An RCD (residual current device) detects earth faults and cuts power to prevent electrocution. Modern installations use both types working together.
Do I need planning permission for an EV charger?
Most home EV chargers do not need planning permission if fitted on a wall of your property. Listed buildings or certain conservation areas may have restrictions. Check with your local planning authority if unsure.
