Another extension completed in Cheltenham.

This project transformed several smaller rooms into one large open-plan living space, giving our client the perfect area to relax and entertain family and friends.

As part of the installation we carried out:
• Additional power sockets throughout the new living space
• Fire-rated LED downlights internally and externally
• Dimmer controls with two-way and intermediate switching
• Brushed chrome up/down wall lights
• Installation of a Tado smart wireless thermostat, allowing the heating to be controlled from anywhere via the app
• Underfloor heating manifold installation, removing the need for radiators and creating more usable living space

It's always rewarding to see a project come together from first fix through to completion, especially when working alongside one of our favourite builders. We've been working together since 2023 and continue to deliver quality results for homeowners across Gloucestershire.

⚡ Full rewire underway in Newent.

The existing electrics in this cottage needed serious attention, so we’re working through a full rewire to make the property safe and ready for the future.

The first-floor power and lighting have now been rewired, new accessories fitted and the consumer unit upgraded.

Not every air conditioning installation is straightforward.

For this project, we installed another **ElectriQ 10,000 BTU Monoblock Air Conditioner** with built-in Wi-Fi, allowing the customer to control the temperature from anywhere using their smartphone.

The unit was installed over the staircase, making it a more challenging installation than usual. To complete the work safely, we used additional access equipment, carefully protected the customer's home with dust sheets throughout, and used dust extraction while drilling to keep disruption and mess to an absolute minimum.

It's the attention to detail that makes the difference.

If you're considering air conditioning or need a trusted electrician in Gloucester, we'd be happy to help.

Walking into a cool home after a long, hot day? That's exactly what this installation was designed for.

We recently installed an **ElectriQ 10,000 BTU Monoblock Air Conditioner** with built-in Wi-Fi, allowing the customer to switch it on from their phone before they even get home.

As requested, we also installed a dedicated high-level socket outlet to keep the installation neat, practical and ready to use.

A monoblock air conditioner is a great option if you're looking for effective cooling without the need for an external condenser unit.

A Simple Upgrade That Makes a Big Difference
Sometimes it's the smaller electrical upgrades that have the biggest impact.
We recently installed LED strip lighting inside a cupboard, transforming a dark storage space into a bright, practical area that's much easier to use day-to-day.
Whether it's a wardrobe, pantry, utility cupboard or under-stairs storage, integrated lighting makes it easier to find what you need, reduces shadows and adds a clean, modern finish.
LED strip lighting is energy-efficient, discreet and can often be controlled automatically with door sensors or switches for added convenience.
It's a small detail, but one that can make a surprising difference to how a space feels and functions.
If you're renovating your home or looking for ways to improve everyday usability, we'd be happy to discuss the options available.

Planning a Renovation or Self-Build? Don't Forget the Electrics
When planning a renovation, extension or new build, electrical design is often left until later in the project. In reality, it's one of the most important parts to get right from the beginning.
A well-planned electrical installation ensures your property works for the way you live, both now and in the future.
Things to consider include:
• Socket locations and quantity
• Interior and exterior lighting
• Home office requirements
• Kitchen appliances and dedicated circuits
• EV charger provisions
• Garden power and lighting
• Data and network cabling
• Future expansion requirements
Whether your project requires a full rewire, a first fix installation for a new build, or electrical work as part of a major renovation, careful planning can save time, reduce costs and avoid changes later in the build.
At ELB Electrical, we work closely with homeowners, builders and developers throughout Gloucester and the surrounding areas to deliver safe, compliant electrical installations tailored to each project.
If you're planning a renovation, extension or new build and would like advice on the electrical requirements, we'd be happy to help.

Why It's Worth Fixing Small Electrical Issues Early
One of the most common things we hear from customers is, "It's been doing that for months."
Whether it's a socket that's become loose, a light that occasionally flickers, a switch that's stopped working properly or a circuit that trips every now and then, small electrical issues are often easy to ignore when everything still appears to be working.
The reality is that many electrical faults start small and gradually become worse over time. What may have been a simple repair can eventually develop into a more complex fault, resulting in greater inconvenience and higher repair costs.
Addressing issues early can help:
• Maintain the safety of your electrical installation
• Prevent unexpected power loss
• Reduce the risk of further damage
• Avoid more costly repairs in the future
If something doesn't seem quite right with your electrics, it's usually worth getting it checked sooner rather than later.
At ELB Electrical, we provide honest advice and professional electrical services across Gloucester and the surrounding areas.

Illuminating a Feature Tree with Outdoor Lighting
A recent project involved installing outdoor lighting to highlight a mature tree and create a focal point that can be enjoyed long after the sun goes down.
To ensure a safe and reliable installation, we installed a dedicated power supply using armoured cable, designed specifically for outdoor use and capable of withstanding the conditions found in gardens and landscaped areas. The cable was carefully routed and protected to provide a durable, long-term solution.
The lighting has been positioned to enhance the natural shape and structure of the tree, creating a striking feature at night while also adding depth and character to the surrounding garden.
Outdoor lighting isn't just about aesthetics. Well-designed lighting can help improve visibility, enhance security and make outdoor spaces more usable throughout the year.
Whether you're looking to highlight a feature tree, illuminate pathways, light up a patio area or completely transform your garden after dark, professional installation ensures the system is safe, reliable and built to last.
If you're considering outdoor lighting for your property in Gloucester or the surrounding areas, get in touch to discuss your ideas.

Electrical Myth: "If It Works, It Must Be Safe"
One of the biggest misconceptions we come across is that working electrics are automatically safe electrics.
In reality, many faults continue to function normally before they become dangerous.
Examples include:
• Loose connections
• Damaged cables
• Overloaded circuits
• Deteriorating wiring
The absence of obvious problems doesn't always mean everything is safe.
If your property hasn't been inspected for many years, it may be worth arranging an electrical check.

First Fix Complete on a Home Extension
We're currently working on a home extension project in Gloucester, and this week we've completed the first fix electrical installation.
The first fix stage takes place before plastering and involves installing all of the hidden electrical infrastructure throughout the new space. This includes running cables, positioning socket and switch points, installing lighting circuits and preparing supplies for any additional features the homeowner has requested.

Getting this stage right is critical. Careful planning now ensures the finished extension functions exactly as intended, with sockets, lighting and power points positioned where they'll be most useful once the room is complete.

For this project, we've worked closely with the builder and homeowner to ensure everything is installed to current regulations and ready for the next phase of construction.

Once plastering is complete, we'll return to carry out the second fix, fitting the sockets, switches, lighting and completing the final testing and certification.

If you're planning an extension in Gloucester or the surrounding area and would like advice on the electrical requirements, feel free to get in touch.
