A private home brought up to current regulations and ready for the next thirty years, full rewire of the existing property, full first & second fix through a new triple-storey extension, and discreet detailing where the architecture asks for it.

One number for the whole electrical side

The homeowner didn't want two electricians, one for the rewire, another for the extension. We took on both, working to the builder's programme so the first fix in the new build went in at the same time as the chase work in the existing house. One quote, one paperwork trail at the end.

The signature detail, concealed sockets in an oak slatted wall

The feature wall along the main living space was always going to be the room's anchor. Standard back-boxes would have ruined the run of slats. We routed individual back-boxes between the slat lines so the sockets sit flush with the timber, almost invisible until you look for them.

The wider scope

  • Full rewire of the existing house with a new RCBO consumer unit
  • Triple-storey extension first & second fix, lighting, sockets, data and bathroom circuits
  • Discreet recessed downlights in the vaulted kitchen and master bedroom
  • Pendant lighting in the kitchen-diner and over the dining island, on dimmer scenes
  • Luxury bathroom, IP-rated downlights, mirror lighting, heated-towel rail circuit
  • Smoke / heat / CO detection interlinked to BS 5839-6
  • Concealed sockets routed between the timber slats on the living-room feature wall

How it tested

Every circuit inspected and certified. Single Electrical Installation Certificate covering the whole works. Part P notification handled directly with Building Control so the homeowner had one less thing to chase. Test certs and as-installed schedules delivered as a single PDF file for the property's records.

From start to finish they were professional, reliable and extremely knowledgeable. Outstanding quality of work and everything was completed efficiently and to a high standard.
