Upgrade your electrical panel from 100A to 200A or 400A service — essential for EV chargers, solar systems, home additions, and aging panels over 30 years old. Licensed electricians handle the utility coordination, permit, and city inspection required for all panel work.

Install new outlets, GFCI/AFCI-protected circuits, USB outlets, and dedicated circuits for appliances. Correct aluminum wiring (common in 1960s–70s homes) and bring aging wiring up to current NEC code. All outlet and wiring work requires a permit in most jurisdictions.

Level 2 (240V) home EV charger installation — add 25–30 miles of range per hour versus 5 miles on a standard outlet. Qualified electricians handle panel capacity assessment, dedicated circuit wiring, and charger mounting. Qualifies for the 30% federal IRA tax credit (up to $1,000) and local utility rebates.

Install ceiling fans in bedrooms, living rooms, and covered patios — reduce AC load by 4–8°F and lower cooling costs by up to 40%. Electricians ensure proper junction box support, correct wire gauge, and switch wiring. Outdoor fans require weatherproof-rated fixtures and dedicated circuits in humid climates.

Full home rewiring replaces aging knob-and-tube wiring (pre-1950), aluminum branch wiring (1960s–70s), or worn insulation that creates fire and shock hazards. A master electrician replaces all branch circuits, installs updated panel, and pulls the required permit for a complete city inspection.

Standby generator and transfer switch installation — automatic whole-home backup power that activates within seconds of a grid outage. Electricians size the generator for your home's critical loads, install the transfer switch, and coordinate the gas utility connection. Essential in hurricane-prone and ice-storm-prone areas.
Learn more
Install recessed lighting, under-cabinet lights, landscape lighting, and smart lighting systems. Electricians run new circuits, install dimmers, and ensure proper load calculations for LED conversions. Outdoor and low-voltage landscape lighting requires weatherproof fixtures and GFCI-protected circuits.
Learn more
Install hardwired, interconnected smoke and carbon monoxide detectors on every floor and outside each sleeping area — required by most building codes. Electricians wire units to a shared circuit so all alarms sound simultaneously. Battery-only detectors are a code violation in most new construction and renovation projects.
Learn more
Same-day emergency response for power outages, tripping breakers, burning smells, exposed wiring, and shock hazards. When electrical problems pose an immediate safety risk, licensed electricians dispatch within hours — never attempt DIY repairs on live wiring. Emergency service is available 24/7 from most licensed electrical contractors.

Common questions from London homeowners about electrical projects, costs, and local pros.
Yes — electrical work in London that is "notifiable" under Part P of the Building Regulations must be carried out by a NICEIC or NAPIT registered electrician (a Part P Competent Person). Notifiable work includes new circuits, consumer unit replacement, and work in kitchens and bathrooms within a defined zone. The electrician self-certifies the work to Building Control. For minor repairs (like-for-like replacements), a Part P registration is still strongly recommended for insurance and safety reasons.
A consumer unit (fuse board) replacement in London typically costs £500–£1,200 installed by a NICEIC or NAPIT registered electrician, including all materials and Building Control notification. The new unit must comply with BS 7671 wiring regulations and include RCD protection on all circuits. Get 3 quotes from registered electricians — prices vary by panel size, number of circuits, and any rewiring of non-compliant circuits discovered during the work.
Level 2 EV home charger (7kW) installation in London typically costs £500–£1,000 including the charger unit, installation, and registration. The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant covered up to £350 for domestic installations — check gov.uk for current program status as funding has evolved. A NICEIC or NAPIT registered electrician must perform the installation and register the completed work.
An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a safety inspection of your home's electrical installation, required by law for rental properties in England every 5 years. Homeowners are strongly advised to obtain one every 10 years, before major renovations, or when buying a property in London. An EICR costs £100–£300 depending on property size. A NICEIC or NAPIT registered electrician performs the inspection and issues a report categorized by risk level (C1 danger, C2 potentially dangerous, C3 improvement recommended).
Under Part P of the Building Regulations, notifiable electrical work in London includes: new circuits; consumer unit replacements; additions or alterations to existing circuits in kitchens, bathrooms, and gardens; and new circuits outdoors. Your Part P registered electrician self-certifies this work to Building Control within 30 days. Failure to notify Building Control can create legal issues when selling your home and may void home insurance. Minor repairs are typically non-notifiable.
Homeowner's insurance typically covers sudden electrical damage from lightning strikes, power surges, and accidental shorts. Wear-and-tear, code upgrades, and wiring remediation (knob-and-tube, aluminum) are excluded. In ENG, some insurers refuse coverage for homes with Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels until they are replaced.
Before You File a Claim
Document all damage with photos and video immediately. Contact your insurer to open a claim and get a claim number before starting any repairs. Request that your contractor be present during the adjuster's inspection so scope and pricing can be confirmed on the spot.
