Electrical installation
From adding a socket or a dimmer to a complete rewire during a renovation, an electrician makes sure the work is safe and up to standard. Describe what needs doing and the age of the property, and qualified companies reply with a price. You receive a certificate for the work once it is finished.
Frequently asked questions
Can I do the electrical work myself?
Only a few very minor tasks are generally suitable for a homeowner. Fixed wiring and most installation work should be done by a qualified electrician and certified, both for safety and for your insurance to remain valid.
How are electricians priced?
Small jobs are often quoted as a fixed price, while larger work may be an hourly or day rate. Get an itemised quote so you can compare companies on more than the headline figure.
Will I get a certificate for the work?
Yes. Reputable electricians document what they installed and provide the appropriate certificate. Keep it safe for insurance purposes and for any future sale of the property.
