What do electrician services include?

Our local electrical contractors can handle all electrical projects, be it for residential, commercial, or industrial properties. If you are building from scratch, they can help construct an efficient electrical framework for you. They can also establish new electrical wiring and control panels, and test the electrical flow for your safety. 

As for existing properties, electricians can routinely maintain, repair, and upgrade your power systems whenever needed. They can also handle electrical equipment and machinery for factories and manufacturing plants. Here is the better overview of our electrical services:

Domestic electrician

Electrical safety is paramount when it comes to your home, and that's when residential electricians play a vital role. They follow safety regulations and make sure that all electrical components and control panels, including electrical wiring and cables, are in good condition to avoid any incidents that could put you and your family at risk.

Domestic electricians can establish power points and switches to support your household appliances. They can also assist with installing various electrical appliances such as electric heaters and showers, in case you're looking to upgrade or planning a renovation. All while ensuring they follow all building regulations.

Commercial electrician

Not to be confused with domestic electricians, commercial electricians are mostly involved in large-scale projects for buildings and various businesses like restaurants, hotels, and corporate offices. Depending on your establishment's requirements, they can fix lighting, heating, and cooling systems or install fire alarms and other security equipment if needed.

Industrial electrician

For engineering projects or tasks that involve higher voltage systems and more complex machinery, it's better to connect with a licensed industrial electrician. Their services include electrical construction and maintenance for industries like factories and plants. They don't just install lights and electrical heaters. Most of the time, they also deal with different types of manufacturing equipment, including hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Industrial electricians can also troubleshoot problems and repair them as they see fit. They can even create tailored maintenance programs for your electrical motors and generators.

2x Electric Radiator w/sockets and 1x doorbell repositioning

£200

Temple Mills, Greater London

5th Mar 2025

3 tasks in a Newbuild flat with plasterboard balls and electrical radiators and doorbell all linked to the main electrics: I have two small Applimo electric radiators attached to the wall in two rooms that I want removed and repositioned further along the same wall. Both radiator AND the socket boxes next to them need to be moved and the gaps left behind in the plasterboard walls filled and made good (for wall painting by me at a later date). There is also a doorbell behind the entrance door to the flat which needs to be repositioned half a metre to the right of where it currently is. The repositioning of all three items is so as to make way for other wall installations to be hung i.e. mirrors, shelves etc and the current positions of these items are 'in the way!' No painting is required but holes/gaps in the walls where items are removed need to be 'made good' ready for painting at a later stage. The specific tasks are: 1. Room A - removal and repositioning of electric radiator and socket boxes further along plasterboard wall, at the same height as it is currently is and holes made good. 2. Room B - removal and repositioning of electric radiator and socket boxes further along plasterboard wall, at the same height as it is currently is and holes made good. 3. Entrance hallway - removal and repositioning of small doorbell unit further along plasterboard wall, at the same height as it is currently is and holes made good. All three items are linked to/plugged into/attached to the mains power supply and circuit switch board in store room and need to be carefully removed and repositioned. Please study pictures. Key criteria are a good smooth finish when 'making good' gaps/holes in walls and excellent electrical skills! :-)

I am as discerning as they come and so really happy to report how pleased I am with this chap. Friendly, efficient and with a can-do attitude, I am very inpressed with the work he undertook in my flat. Very pleased indeed and look forward to booking him for the next job!
