Electrical and lighting completed by the right contractor and within regs makes all the difference.

Whether it's a commercial space that needs a full lighting redesign, or a domestic project where the existing installation just isn't up to scratch, the quality of the work underneath determines how well everything performs long term.

We handle everything from consumer unit upgrades and full rewires through to lighting design and installation across Cumbria. Every job is tested, certified, and signed off to the current 18th Edition wiring regulations.

We're assessed every year to ensure we keep up with standards.

If you've got a project coming up and want it handled by a team that takes the detail seriously, get in touch.

If you manage a block of flats or a multi-dwelling property in Cumbria, electrical inspections aren't optional.

Every rental property requires a valid Electrical Installation Condition Report. For landlords with multiple units, keeping on top of that across an entire building, or portfolio, is where things can quickly get complicated.

We work with landlords and property managers across Cumbria to take that off their plate. That means coordinating access, carrying out thorough testing to 18th Edition standards, producing clear documentation, and flagging anything that needs attention before it becomes a problem.

A straightforward process that keeps your properties compliant and your tenants safe.

If you've got a block or a portfolio that's due for inspection, get in touch and we'll talk through what's involved.

If you have solar panels, or you are thinking about getting them, you have probably come across the term Smart Export Guarantee. But what is it, and why does it matter?

The Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) is a government-backed scheme that requires energy suppliers to pay you for surplus electricity you export back to the grid. When your panels generate more than your home is using, you get paid for what you send out.

A few things worth knowing:

- You must have an MCS Certified installation to qualify. This is one of the main reasons certification matters.
- Rates vary between energy suppliers, so it is worth shopping around once your system is installed
- You will need a smart meter to participate
- You will need to prove you own the system

It does not replace battery storage, but it means your surplus energy is never wasted!

The SEG helps increase your return on investment, so make sure you get it set up!

As renewable energy installers in Cumbria, we make sure every customer we install for understands exactly what they are entitled to and how to access it. Get in touch today!

Another in-roof solar installation completed across Cumbria.

The finished results normally speak for themselves, but what you see here is a glimpse of what goes into getting there. The survey, the structural checks, the cable management, the installation, the commissioning, the MCS documentation.

A real installation, completed by award winning electrical contractors. Accredited, certified and qualified to handover for you to enjoy and save from.

If you're thinking about solar and want to understand what's actually involved, drop us a message. We're happy to talk it through before you commit to anything.

With this EV charger installation in The Lake District, our customer is paying home rates from now on, not premium public charging prices.

A lot of people assume any electrician can fit an EV charger. Technically, yes. But there's a difference between plugging something in and installing a system that's safe, compliant, and actually suited to how you use your vehicle.

We assess your existing supply, recommend the right charger for your setup, apply to the DNO on your behalf and install it to the standard your home or business deserves.

Whether you've just taken delivery of your first EV or you're planning ahead, we'll make sure the installation is sorted properly from day one.

We're not the cheapest electrician in Whitehaven. And we're not trying to be.

Here's why...

Cheap electrical work usually means one of a few things: corners cut on materials, jobs rushed to fit more in the diary, or someone who isn't fully qualified doing work that requires someone who is.

We're NAPIT Approved and MCS accredited installers in Cumbria. Every job we do is compliant, documented, and done to a standard we'd be happy to put our name to. That costs more than a van and a bag of tools.

The clients who come to us, whether it's a full commercial fit-out or a home solar installation, aren't looking for the lowest quote. They're looking for someone they can trust to get it right.

That's what we're here for. And that's we don't beat every quote, everytime.

Do you wonder whether in-roof or on-roof panels are better?

Unlike standard on-roof panels, an in-roof system integrates directly into the roof structure itself. Every measurement is taken with precision before a single panel goes on. The result is a sleek, all black system that sits flush with the roofline, easy to clean, easy to maintain, and a finish the homeowner is proud to show off.

This is a recent installation we completed here in Cumbria. From the initial survey through to final commissioning, every stage was handled with care and executed to MCS standards. That's the difference you get when it's done by award winning electrical contractors in Cumbria.

If you're considering solar and want it done properly by a certified installer, get in touch.
