Featured Services
EICR Certificate
An Electrical Installation Condition Report checks the wiring, sockets, lighting and safety devices in a property against the latest IEE Wiring Regulations. Landlords have a legal duty to renew this every 5 years, or at a change of tenancy, under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020. We recommend homeowners renew every 10 years. Read more about EICR Certificate.
New Build Electrical Contractors
We work alongside architects, builders and developers from the planning and design stage through to completion, integrating energy-efficient lighting and smart home systems into new build projects. Read more about New Build Electrical Contractors.
Electrical Testing and Inspection
We inspect wiring, circuits, sockets, switches, circuit breakers, distribution boards and protective devices. Commercial properties are recommended for testing every 5 years, residential properties every 10 years (every 5 years for rental properties). Read more about Electrical Testing and Inspection.
EV Charger Installation
We install home and commercial EV chargers from brands including Tesla, Rolec and Zappi. Most residential installations take between 4 and 8 hours; commercial installations take longer depending on the number of chargers required. Read more about EV Charger Installation.
