About Our Residential Electrical Services Service in Loddon
Most home electrical work comes down to a handful of jobs. Replacing a consumer unit (the fuse box) means swapping rewireable fuses or an old plastic board for a metal-enclosed unit, normally with an RCBO (a combined RCD and circuit breaker) on each circuit, and checking the main protective bonding to the gas and water services at the same time. A rewire runs in two stages, with cables and back boxes in before the plastering, then accessories, lights and the board fitted after. The rest is new circuits for cookers, electric showers, kitchens and garden outbuildings, extra sockets and outdoor lighting, and fault finding on an RCD that keeps tripping.
Three things need notifying under Part P of the Building Regulations: a new circuit, a consumer unit replacement, or an alteration to an existing circuit inside a bathroom or a room with a swimming pool or sauna heater. An extra socket in a bedroom is not notifiable. Notifiable work gets an Electrical Installation Certificate from us, plus a Building Regulations compliance certificate issued through the scheme within 30 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I legally need an EICR on my own home?
Not if you live in it. There is no legal requirement for an owner-occupier. The IET recommends an inspection every ten years, or on change of occupancy. Letting the property changes it completely: the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 require a report at least every five years, a copy to the tenant within 28 days, and remedial work on any C1, C2 or further investigation item within 28 days. Local authorities can fine up to £30,000 per breach.
Does all electrical work have to be notified to building control?
No, only three categories. A new circuit, a consumer unit replacement, or an addition or alteration to an existing circuit in a bathroom or a room containing a swimming pool or sauna heater. Adding a socket to a bedroom, replacing a light fitting or repairing an existing circuit are not notifiable.
My RCD keeps tripping. Is the fuse box faulty?
Usually not. One 30 mA RCD covering several circuits collects a small amount of earth leakage from every appliance on those circuits until the total is enough to trip it. Splitting the board so each circuit has its own RCBO normally fixes it, and stops a fault on the freezer taking out the upstairs lights. We test insulation resistance circuit by circuit to find which one is actually leaking.
Do I need to move out during a rewire?
Usually not. It is dusty and noisy, and power comes and goes, so an occupied house is normally done room by room. Chasing walls for new cable runs leaves plaster to be filled and decorated afterwards. Ask us at quote stage whether making good is included and we will put the answer in writing before you commit.
