Many homes in and around Wells were built long before modern electrics were even imagined. As a result, older wiring often struggles to keep up with the demands of today’s appliances. Our domestic electricians carry out full and partial house rewires with real care, working around the character of period properties rather than against it. In addition, we upgrade fuse boards, add extra sockets, and sort out that tangle of ageing cabling in a way that respects the age of your home.
Damp, thick stone walls and listed-building considerations can all make a house rewire in Wells trickier than in a newer home. However, our team has spent years working on exactly these kinds of properties, so we know how to route cables discreetly and keep any disruption to a minimum. We always talk you through the options first, so you understand what needs doing and why before any work begins.
Fitting a new kitchen into one of Wells’ older or period homes takes a careful hand, and the wiring behind it is just as important as the finish on show. Our kitchen installation and refurbishment service is well suited to the city’s characterful properties, where cabling often has to be routed thoughtfully around thick walls and original features. Whether you are planning a gentle kitchen makeover or a complete new kitchen, we take care of the cooker circuits, sockets, extractor and lighting, leaving you with a space that looks right and works beautifully.
With so many rental homes and holiday lets across the city, landlord safety checks are always in demand. We carry out EICR and PAT testing for homeowners and landlords alike, giving you a clear report on the condition of your electrics. Should anything need attention, we explain it in plain English, then put it right. Because we are NAPIT accredited and TrustMark registered, you can trust that every check meets current regulations.
For landlords in particular, an up-to-date Electrical Installation Condition Report is now a legal requirement, and the fines for falling behind can be steep. We make the whole process painless, working around your tenants and turning reports around quickly. Many local landlords keep us on hand for regular checks, so their properties stay compliant year after year.
From cafés on the high street to offices near the Market Place, local businesses rely on electrics that simply work. Our commercial electricians look after shop fits and refurbishments, lighting, and everything in between. Meanwhile, our PAT testing keeps your workplace equipment safe and compliant. We also fit and maintain fire alarms, so your premises, staff and customers stay protected.
Many Wells homes enjoy mature, established gardens, and adding power outside opens up all sorts of possibilities. Our outdoor electrics service covers weatherproof sockets, discreet garden lighting that suits a period setting, and power for summerhouses, home offices and outbuildings. We plan each installation so it blends quietly into its surroundings, stays safe, and holds up through a wet Somerset winter.
Whatever the job, our team brings 35 years of hands-on knowledge to the table. Services include:
Based just a couple of miles away in Street, we know this part of Somerset inside out. We turn up when we say we will, keep our prices honest, and use good-quality materials that last.
