In detail
What each job covers
Fuse Board Upgrades
Assessment of the existing fuse box, isolation of the supply, removal of the old unit, installation of the new consumer unit, connection of circuits, testing and certification.
When you need it. Old fuse boxes with rewirable fuses, blown fuses, frequent tripping, or when adding new circuits to a dated installation.
Before you get in touch. Note the age of the fuse box and any recent electrical problems or tripping issues you have experienced.
Rewiring
Removal of old wiring, installation of new cables throughout the property, new sockets, switches and fittings, testing and certification of the entire system.
When you need it. Flickering lights, discoloured sockets, burning smells, or when undertaking renovation work on an older property.
Before you get in touch. Provide access to lofts, under-floor spaces and wall cavities. Clear areas around the fuse board.
Socket & Switch Installation
Location marking, careful routing of cables through walls or skirting, installation of mounting boxes, connection of sockets or switches, testing for safety.
When you need it. Running out of sockets, wanting outlets in new locations, or updating old two-pin sockets to modern three-pin standards.
Before you get in touch. Identify where you need new sockets or switches. Check for pipes and cables in the wall using a detector if possible.
Lighting Installation
Marking positions, routing cable to light positions, installation of ceiling roses or junction boxes, fitting the light fitting, connection and testing.
When you need it. Adding lighting to dark areas, fitting spotlights or downlighters, upgrading outdated pendants, or installing lights in new rooms.
Before you get in touch. Decide on light positions and type of fitting. Ensure loft access is clear if ceiling roses need fitting above.
EV Charger Installation
Assessment of the electrical supply, installation of a dedicated circuit and isolator switch, mounting the charger unit, connection to the supply and testing.
When you need it. Purchasing an electric vehicle and needing a home charge point, or wanting faster charging than a standard socket allows.
Before you get in touch. Confirm the vehicle and charger model. Check driveway space and proximity to the consumer unit and where cable will run.
PAT Testing
Visual inspection of appliance condition, electrical testing using a PAT tester, documentation of results, labelling of items, identification of failures.
When you need it. Annual testing requirement for workplace appliances, health and safety compliance checks, or before hiring equipment to third parties.

Good to know
Common questions
General guidance about electricians in the UK, not specific to any one business.
What is the difference between rewiring and a fuse box upgrade?
A fuse board upgrade replaces just the main control unit. Rewiring replaces all cables throughout the building. Rewiring is usually done when the property is very old or when major renovation work is underway.
Can I install a socket or light fitting myself?
Electrical work on fixed installations must comply with Building Regulations. Most socket and lighting work requires certification by a qualified electrician. Plugging in appliances is safe; modifying circuits is not.
How often should PAT testing be done?
Frequency depends on the appliance type and environment. Office and commercial equipment typically needs annual testing. High-risk items and those in harsh conditions may need more frequent checks.
What makes an old fuse box dangerous?
Old rewirable fuses can be replaced with incorrect wire, they do not protect against electric shock the way modern circuit breakers do, and deteriorating components increase fire risk.
Do I need planning permission for an EV charger?
Installing a charger on your own property does not usually require planning permission, but Building Regulations approval is needed. The installer must ensure compliance and provide certification.
Why does my electrics trip frequently?
Frequent tripping indicates a fault or overload. Common causes include water ingress, worn cables, too many appliances on one circuit, or a fault in an appliance. A qualified electrician should investigate.
