If your home is over 30 years old and hasn't had a full rewire, it may be due. Warning signs include an old fuse box, frequent tripping, burning smells, or dated sockets and switches. We can assess your wiring and let you know what's safe and up to code.

What is a consumer unit and do I need a new one?

A consumer unit (also called a fuse board) controls your home’s electrical circuits. If it’s outdated or lacks RCD protection, it may not meet safety regulations. We install modern, fully compliant consumer units for improved protection and peace of mind.

How can I make my home more energy efficient?

We can help improve your home’s efficiency with upgrades like LED lighting, smart thermostats, MVHR systems, and solar panels with battery storage. These solutions lower energy bills and reduce your environmental impact.

What should I do if my electrics keep tripping?

Frequent tripping could be due to a faulty appliance, overloaded circuit, or a more serious issue. We can inspect and test your system to identify the cause and fix it safely and quickly.

Do I need an electrical inspection?

Yes. Homeowners should have an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) every 10 years — or sooner if you've made renovations or noticed issues. We provide thorough inspections with a clear, actionable report.

Can I get an EV charger at home?

Yes. We install certified EV home chargers that are safer and faster than a standard socket — and we can integrate them with your solar panels or smart meter setup if needed.

Should I worry about smoke alarms?

Yes. Regulations now recommend hardwired, interlinked smoke and carbon monoxide alarms throughout your home. We install fully compliant systems for maximum protection and peace of mind.

How often should I have my home electrics checked?

You should have an EICR every 10 years, or sooner if the property is older or you’ve had electrical issues. It ensures everything is safe and up to standard.

Is it worth installing a smart home system?

Smart home systems offer convenience, security, and energy savings. From lighting to heating and door access, we install systems tailored to your needs and budget.
