Not sure which yours is? Describe the job and we will tell you
Electrical work requires care and knowledge. While we handle everyday electrical tasks like fitting lights, adding sockets, and installing ceiling fans, we know our limits and won't attempt work that requires a qualified electrician. For the jobs we do take on, safety is paramount - proper isolation, correct fittings, and thorough testing. We're happy to recommend qualified electricians for larger jobs.

Common Questions About Electrical
Can you replace my old noisy fan?
Yes - modern fans are much quieter. Same hole usually works. We swap old for new and set up any timer functions.
What about plumbing connections?
We handle the plumbing side too - water in, waste out. All part of getting your appliance working. One visit, everything done.
What about humidity sensors?
Some fans have built-in humidity sensors - they switch on automatically when moisture rises. Good for people who forget to use the fan. We can fit these.
Do you replace the flex?
If the cable is damaged or old, we replace it. New fabric flex can look good on vintage lamps. We match the style where possible.
What appliances do you install?
Most small to medium appliances - washing machines, dishwashers, cookers, dryers. Anything that needs connecting to water, waste, or electrics. If it's complex or requires Part P certification, we'll let you know.
Why do my dimmed lights buzz?
Usually incompatible dimmer and bulbs. LED dimmers with non-dimmable LEDs, or old leading-edge dimmers with LED bulbs. Right combination = silent operation.
