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 I upgrade to double sockets?
Sometimes - if the wiring can handle it and there's room for a larger backbox. Not always possible without replastering. We check and advise.
How low should a pendant hang?
Over a table: 30-36 inches above. In hallways: at least 7 feet clearance. Over islands: 28-34 inches above. We adjust to suit your space and discuss before fixing.
Do I need a dedicated circuit?
High-wattage heaters may need their own circuit to avoid overloading. We check your supply and advise. Standard panel heaters often work on existing sockets.
What about old chandeliers?
We can rehang vintage chandeliers too. Check the wiring is safe, clean up connections, install securely. Beautiful pieces deserve proper installation.
Can you get tubes for old fittings?
Most sizes are still available, though some old formats are harder to find. If yours is obsolete, we can suggest LED replacement fittings that work with your existing wiring.
Do you fit the light I've bought?
Yes - we fit your lights. Just have them delivered before we arrive. We can advise on what to buy if you're not sure.
