Since i have my account back from being hacked, back to business as usual... Brass seems to be the latest trend, lighting, kitchens and work with a view 😎💡☀️

Its the Sticker that makes the difference.

When did you last have your electrics checked?

You can an have an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) carried out from as little as £90. This essential Inspection and Test can identify any faults or dangerous items that may be in your Home or Business.
An Inspection report will be provided on completion highlighting any issues or improvements required. If all everything is up to standard then a test and inspection sticker is applied to the consumer unit like the photos and a certificate provided for the installation.

Best to have it checked than get a shock!? ⚡️⚡️

It has been a busy year so far with plenty of variety of work. Bathrooms, kitchens, upgrades and repairs and lots more. Some dangerous lights replaced and made safe with new Aurora LED downlights. Some high height work on a MEWP replacing a supply on a farm, just some if the work recently...Also seems like Satin Brass is the new trend.

With 2024 almost gone, thanks again to all my customers this year. I haven’t posted much on social media this year but here’s a small portion from this year.

All the best for 2025 when it comes! 🥂🎈🥳

Well i’d say the last 6 months have been a bit crazy and very busy. I haven’t updated much on here due to being busy and most jobs being either testing or commercial, so nothing fancy to look at. But just before the Christmas break i finished a fantastic looking wine storage unit with Wilson Joinery Services with plenty of lights.
Before that i replaced a lot of garden lighting with Philips Hue system that look great.
There’s been house rewires, car chargers, a lot of commercial repairs and domestic repairs to all sorts of wiring. Fancy bathroom mirrors, kitchen wiring alterations , outdoor lighting and many consumer unit upgrades. But also the unfortunate moment i put my foot through a ceiling for the first time ever. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Everyone makes mistakes, its how you deal with them that matters.
Everything was repaired and upgraded to a pvc ceiling. Customer was happy with the repair and finish.
Lets hope 2024 is just as good but without the ceiling mishap. Happy New Year everyone 👍🥂

Its been a busy few weeks, a lot of different types of work, usual consumer unit upgrades, farm shed wiring, garden decking projects, KNX fault finding, new build wiring and plenty kitchen and bathroom prep.
In between all of that, Inspection and testing and discovering a lot of dangerous and poor work by others that required repairs.

Be an electrician…it’ll be fun they say 🤣😄🙈

A few jobs from this week…not that i took many photos 🙄
Installed a new Street light for Kev. Its huge 🤣
Had a fight with a fusebox, i won so it got fitted. Old MEM Consumer unit removed and a new Elucian DB installed.
Wednesday was finishing repairs to a recently wired kitchen done badly. Also core a new hole for the extractor fan, the previous “Electrican” thought it was fine to cut a 4” hole in a joist for the duct…eh nope.
Rebuilt my Makita drill for the second time this year. It doesn’t like big holesaws. 🤦🏼‍♂️
Led trailer light replacement…When you forget to put the gas soldering iron back in the van. I ended up going to my unit to get the old school QRO soldering iron. Worked a treat when the wind died down. 😄

Todays job was upgrading this failing old MEM consumer unit to a new RCBO Elucian DB.
Upgrading to a new consumer unit fixed the faulty rcd’s, mcbs and also the badly fitted main tails through separate holes.
After a small wrestling match with the back knockouts and a self taught lesson in panel beating, the new Enclosure and RCBO’s were fitted. The main supply tails fitted through a new tail gland and the complete installation inspected and tested.
Another happy customer 👍

The final LED install at the media wall job was completed yesterday. I think it looks fantastic. Colour changing led strip added to the ceiling alcove, totally changes the look and mood of the room.
Another happy customer. 👍💡

The LEDs i made last week…

Wilson Joinery Services have custom built this media cabinet. All of last weeks LEDs have been fitted into corner LED profile, all cables hidden in the side panels. Stainless Steel dimmer switch to match the existing accessories, 2x sockets in the cupboard and all AV cables extended for the TV

One of the many custom built cabinets i have wired up with lights and power. Fantastic finish as usual 👍💡⚡️

Media walls seem to be the most common home upgrade at the moment. Plenty down lights in yesterday job. More still to fit after painting.
Now making custom led lights for the next media wall project for tomorrow, 3 down, 5 to go. Fiddly bit worth it. 💡💡
