Done Right

Yes. If the house has gone dark, a breaker keeps kicking out the moment it goes back up, a socket has browned at the edges or there is a hot smell near the board, that is an urgent job and it gets treated as one. Ring 01274 066134 and describe what you can see. We will walk you through pulling the right thing out while we make our way over.

Bradford and the whole district — Heaton, Manningham, Great Horton, Little Horton, Wibsey, Buttershaw, Bowling, Eccleshill, Idle, Thackley, Wrose, Undercliffe, Clayton, Thornton, Queensbury and Allerton — plus Shipley, Saltaire, Baildon, Bingley, Cottingley and up the valley to Keighley, Silsden, Steeton, Haworth, Oakworth, Cullingworth and Denholme. Ilkley, Addingham, Menston and Burley too.

Yes, and it needs a bit more thought. Saltaire's World Heritage status and the conservation areas around the district put limits on what can go on an external elevation, so things like charge points, floodlights and meter boxes need siting with that in mind. We'll talk through where a unit can sensibly go before anything is drilled, and flag anything you'd want to check with the council first.

Depends entirely what it is — a socket swap and a rewire aren't the same conversation. Small, well-described jobs we can price on the phone. Bigger ones, or anything in an older property where we can't see what we're inheriting, we look at first. Either way the figure comes before the work, not after.

Considerably. Solid stone walls can't be chased like a modern block-and-plaster wall, party walls in back-to-backs are shared with the neighbour, and cellars and attics often carry the only sensible routes between floors. It takes longer to plan and we'd rather spend that time working out the route than making good afterwards.

Often yes, but it needs looking at. A sloping drive changes where the lead will naturally sit and a shared yard needs an agreement in place with whoever else uses it. Trailing a cable across a public footpath is a trip hazard and we won't sign that off. Describe the parking on the phone and we'll tell you honestly whether it works.

It is a full inspection and test of everything fixed in the building — the board, the circuits behind the walls, the sockets and lighting, and how the whole lot is earthed and bonded. What comes out the other end is a written verdict of satisfactory or not, with anything wrong graded by how serious it is. Budget a few hours for an average house and longer for a big or elderly one. We translate the gradings into plain English afterwards and price any repairs on their own.

Most often a loose connection somewhere on the lighting circuit, a failing LED driver, or dimmer switches that were never matched to the lamps fitted. Occasionally it's a supply issue outside the property. It's worth getting looked at rather than lived with, because a loose connection generates heat.

Yes. EICRs, landlord safety checks, remedials, PAT testing and general maintenance, whether that's one flat or a portfolio spread across the district. Tell us how many and roughly where when you ring and we'll sort something sensible on scheduling and access.

Ring 01274 066134 and you'll get an electrician on the phone, not a call centre. Or use the quick quote form at the top of this page or the fuller enquiry form below — both land in our inbox as you send them and we'll come back to fix a time.
