Family-run since 1995 Three generations in the trade, one accountable team of two. Overview ## A clear, honestexplanation. What the service is, who it's for, when it's needed, and why professional work matters. What it is Domestic electrical services cover everything inside a home that runs on mains electricity, from the consumer unit and circuits, to sockets, switches, lighting, appliance connections, outdoor supplies and safety devices. Every job is designed, installed, tested and certified to the current 18th Edition wiring regulations and, where notifiable, registered under Part P through NAPIT. Who it's for Homeowners, private landlords, self-build clients and letting agents across Leicester, Hinckley, Market Bosworth, Barlestone, Nuneaton, Coalville, Earl Shilton, Burbage and Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Whether you need one socket adding for a home office or a full rewire ahead of a renovation, the same qualified electrician quotes and completes the work. When you need it When lights flicker, sockets scorch, breakers trip repeatedly, a fuse box is older than the mortgage, an extension needs first-fix wiring, an EV needs charging, a bathroom needs shaver points and IP-rated lighting, or a landlord needs a certified EICR before letting the property. Why it matters Unqualified electrical work is one of the leading causes of house fires and shocks in the UK. Building Regulations Part P legally requires notifiable domestic work to be carried out by a competent, registered electrician. That's what NAPIT registration exists for, and it's why every job we complete comes with a properly-issued certificate you can hand to insurers, buyers, landlords or building control. The risk ## What happens when domestic wiring is ignored Electrical faults rarely stay small. What begins as a warm switch, an intermittent trip or a hot smell behind a socket compounds until you've got damaged appliances, wrecked plaster, a house that won't sell, or worse. ### What can go wrong - House fires, old rubber, lead or unearthed cabling degrades silently for years before failing. - Electric shock, outdated fuse boards without RCD protection give no warning and no cut-off. - Failed home sales, a bad EICR mid-transaction can knock thousands off the price or collapse the deal. - Insurance refusals, undocumented DIY work can void household cover after a claim. - Compounding damage, a small fault ignored today usually means a bigger, dirtier, more expensive fix later. ### Common mistakes - Letting a general builder or handyman quietly do notifiable electrical work with no certificate. - Assuming a house rewired in the 1980s is still up to modern regs; it almost certainly isn't. - Booking the cheapest quote without checking Part P registration and public liability insurance. - Ignoring a nuisance-tripping RCD; it's warning you about a real fault, not a faulty breaker.

In detail ## Domestic electrical work we cover in detail Domestic electrical is one of the widest trades on the market, genuinely competent electricians should be able to cover the full spectrum inside a home. Below is what we handle day-in, day-out for households across Leicestershire. ### Full & partial house rewires Complete rewires for older housing stock still on rubber, lead or original PVC cabling, plus partial rewires focused on kitchens, bathrooms, first-floor circuits or specific problem areas. New copper, correctly sized, cleanly clipped and chased. ### Consumer unit (fuse board) upgrades 18th Edition metal-cased consumer units with individual RCBOs, each circuit independently protected, so one fault doesn't knock the whole house out.

Residential Domestic work sits under Building Regulations Part P, notifiable jobs (new circuits, consumer units, work in special locations) must be registered by a competent scheme member. Cable ratings, RCD requirements and zone rules are stricter in kitchens and bathrooms than most homeowners realise. Commercial Commercial installations sit under BS 7671 with additional obligations around RAMS, permits to work, isolation procedures and coordinated shutdowns. If your project is a commercial premises or a mixed-use building, see our commercial contracting page instead. FAQs ## Straight answers,before you ring. Still not sure? Ring Jacob on 07904 800397.
