Electrical Services We Provide in Hitchin

We offer a full range of electrical services for residential and commercial customers in Hitchin. Below is a summary of the work we carry out most frequently in the area.

EICRs & Landlord Certificates

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a thorough inspection of your property's wiring and consumer unit. It is a legal requirement for all private rental properties and strongly recommended for homeowners buying or selling. We issue fully compliant certificates and can carry out any remedial work required.

Rewiring

A full or partial rewire replaces ageing cables, sockets and switches with modern, safe wiring. We plan rewires carefully to minimise disruption and redecoration, and all work is tested and certified on completion.

Consumer Unit Upgrades

Older fuse boards with rewirable fuses or early MCBs no longer meet current safety standards. We upgrade consumer units to modern units with RCDs and RCBOs, providing improved protection against electric shock and fire.

Fault Finding & Repairs

Tripping circuits, dead sockets, flickering lights or a burning smell are all signs of an electrical fault that needs prompt attention. We use specialist test equipment to locate faults quickly and carry out safe, lasting repairs.

Lighting Installation

From recessed LED downlights and feature lighting to external security lighting and emergency lighting for commercial premises, we install lighting schemes that are both practical and energy efficient.

Commercial Electrical Work

We work with businesses, landlords and property managers across Hitchin on office fit-outs, retail units, HMO electrical work and planned maintenance contracts. We understand the importance of minimising downtime and work flexibly around your schedule.
