Rewires, consumer unit upgrades, new circuits and lighting on Balham homes.
We carry out electrical work for homeowners across Balham and SW12, usually as part of a renovation, extension or kitchen project. That runs from a full rewire of an older house to a new consumer unit, extra circuits and sockets, or the lighting in a new open-plan room.
Older Balham houses often have wiring that is past its best, with too few sockets and an old fuseboard. A renovation or extension is the natural time to put that right, because the walls and floors are already open.
We handle rewires, consumer unit upgrades, new circuits, sockets and lighting, and the electrical work an extension or new kitchen needs. Electrical work is notifiable under the building regulations, so it is tested, certified and signed off correctly.
Covers: Rewires, consumer units, circuits, lighting
Best time: During a renovation or extension
Certified: Notifiable work signed off

Usually as part of a wider build.
Balham's Victorian and Edwardian houses were not wired for how we live now, so a renovation is the sensible time to rewire, add sockets and update the fuseboard while the walls and floors are open. On a conversion flat we work within the freeholder and lease conditions.
