Our Services

Old wiring goes brittle and stops being safe. A full rewire replaces every cable in the property, while a partial rewire deals only with the circuits that need it. We work room by room and keep the mess down. Read more on our full and partial house rewiring page.

The fuse box is the safety heart of the property. Older boards have no RCD protection, so a fault can sit there unnoticed. A new consumer unit cuts the power in a fraction of a second. See our fuse box replacement page for what the job involves.

Extension leads running across a room usually mean you need more sockets. We add sockets, spurs and whole new circuits for kitchens, garages and home offices. Everything is tested before you use it. Our socket and circuit installation page has the detail.

Breakers that trip and lights that flicker normally come back to one fault somewhere in the system. We test circuit by circuit until we find it, then repair it. No guessing and no pulling walls apart. Our electrical fault finding page explains how we track it down.

An EICR is a full inspection of the wiring in a property with a written report at the end. Landlords need one every five years. Buyers and sellers often ask for one too. Read our EICR electrical safety certificates page to see what gets checked.

Shops, offices, units and workshops all need power, lighting and data running in before they open. We plan the layout, install it and test it, working to your opening date. See our commercial and industrial electrical fit outs page for more.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose a qualified electrician in Accrington?

Check the qualifications and ask what paperwork you get at the end. Our electricians hold an NVQ Level 3 Certificate in Electrical Installation and the 2391 Testing and Inspecting Certificate, which covers installing work and testing it. Ask for a free quote and you will have the price before anything begins.

What electrical jobs can be done in a single visit?

Most smaller jobs are finished in one visit. Swapping a fuse box, adding sockets, fitting lights or tracing a fault usually take a few hours. A full rewire runs over several days because every cable is replaced. We tell you at the quote stage how long your job needs.

Do you work on commercial properties in Accrington?

Yes. We work in shops, offices, workshops and industrial units as well as homes. That covers new circuits, distribution boards, lighting and full fit outs. We can work outside trading hours if the site needs to stay open. Call us and we will arrange a time to look at the job.
