We replace old wiring, install modern fuse boards with RCD/SPD protection, and ensure compliance with current safety standards. This service is ideal for properties over 30 years old or those showing signs of electrical wear, such as flickering lights or discoloured sockets. Our NICEIC-certified team completes most projects within 48 days, with transparent pricing and a two-year warranty.

We conduct comprehensive electrical testing, including EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Reports) and PAT testing for domestic and commercial properties. This service identifies potential hazards, ensures compliance with safety regulations, and provides detailed recommendations for improvements. Testing is recommended every 10 years for homes or during property transactions. Our certified electricians use advanced diagnostic tools to deliver accurate assessments and actionable reports.
