Electrician services Newquay

Our full range of electrical services

Every service is delivered by our own registered electricians, working throughout Newquay and the rest of Cornwall.

Electrical Testing & Inspections

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is the clearest way to understand the condition of the electrics in a Newquay home or business. Our electricians test the full installation — wiring integrity, connections, the consumer unit, outlets and fixed appliances — to find wear, damage or non-compliance before it becomes a fault.

You receive a written report explaining what we found and what, if anything, needs attention, so you can plan remedial work with confidence.

Electrical Installations

Whether you are adding sockets to a kitchen in Newquay or wiring an extension from scratch, we plan every installation around how you use the space. That includes energy-efficient lighting, smart controls and layouts that leave room to expand later.

New work is integrated carefully with your existing system and installed to current wiring regulations, with safety and your budget considered from design to completion.

Fuse Board Upgrades

Older fuse boards often lack the RCD protection modern installations rely on. Upgrading to a new consumer unit gives every circuit clear, up-to-date protection and makes future additions — such as an EV charger or new kitchen circuits — far simpler.

Property Rewires

Ageing cables, rubber or fabric insulation and overloaded circuits are common in older Cornish properties. A full or partial rewire brings the installation up to modern standards, and we plan the work in stages so you know what is happening each day.

Fault Finding & Repairs

Tripping RCDs, sockets that have stopped working and lights that flicker all have a cause. Our electricians test methodically to trace the fault to its source, explain what went wrong and repair it properly rather than simply resetting the symptom.

Outdoor Lighting

Well-planned outdoor lighting makes gardens, paths and driveways safer and more usable. Being so close to the sea, Newquay properties need fittings and connections suited to wind, rain and salt air, and we specify accordingly.

Landlord Electrical Services

Newquay has a large number of rented homes and holiday lets, and landlords need dependable electricians to keep them safe and compliant. We carry out landlord inspections and any remedial work identified, scheduling visits to minimise disruption to tenants and guests.

PAT Testing

Portable appliance testing checks that kettles, heaters, tools and other plug-in equipment are safe to use. It is a straightforward way for landlords and businesses to demonstrate they are maintaining their equipment responsibly.

Security Systems

We install security systems for homes and commercial premises, positioned and wired neatly so they work reliably and are easy for you to use day to day.

Commercial Electrical Services

Newquay businesses — from cafés and shops to offices and industrial units — rely on electrics that simply work. We provide commercial installations, planned maintenance, repairs and fault finding, with clear communication and minimal downtime for your business.

EV Charger Installation

We install EV chargers for homes and businesses, from a single driveway unit to multiple commercial chargers. The work covers a site survey, load calculations, installation, smart charger setup, testing and certification, plus advice on tethered or untethered options and help accessing any available grants or schemes.

Solar Panels & Battery Storage

We supply and install solar PV systems for homes, businesses and agricultural buildings, starting with a full site assessment to recommend the right layout. Battery storage can be added to keep surplus energy for evenings and peak times, and every system is tested and certified, with help on grid connection requirements.

FAQs

Electrician services FAQs

How often should a Newquay rental property have an EICR?

In England, privately rented homes need an Electrical Installation Condition Report at least every five years, or sooner if the previous report says so. Our electricians carry out landlord EICRs across Newquay and can complete any remedial work identified.

Do I need a new fuse board?

If your property still has an older fuse box, rewireable fuses or no RCD protection, an upgrade to a modern consumer unit is usually recommended. We will inspect your existing board and give you honest advice before any work is quoted.

How do I know if my house needs rewiring?

Warning signs include old rubber or fabric-covered cables, frequent tripping, scorch marks, buzzing sockets or a property that has not been tested in many years. An electrical inspection will confirm whether a full or partial rewire is needed.

Can you install an EV charger at my Newquay home?

Yes. We survey your property, check the supply and load, install and set up the charger, then test and certify the installation. We can also advise on tethered or untethered chargers and any grants or schemes available.

Do you provide electrical services for businesses?

Yes. We work with offices, shops, hospitality and industrial premises on installations, maintenance, PAT testing, repairs and fault finding, planned around your opening hours wherever possible.
