Local facts from: en.wikipedia.org
The age and type of a building decide most of what we find when we open up the electrics. Here is what that means in Filton.
Homes from the 1920s and 1930s
In Filton: Homes in Filton Park are mostly privately owned semi-detached houses built in the 1930s.
Many have been partly rewired over the years, so it is common to find old and new cable side by side. Original lighting circuits often have no earth, which limits the light fittings you can use. A new consumer unit with RCD protection is one of the most common upgrades.
Post-war houses and estates
In Filton: Concorde, the supersonic airliner, was built at Filton in the late 1960s and 1970s.
Homes from this period often have older consumer units and fewer sockets than people need now. Before adding an electric shower, an EV charger or an extension, we check the supply, the earthing and the protection on the board.
We will tell you honestly what needs doing now and what can wait, and you get a clear price before anything is booked.

What customers say
Having found a load of random things in our new house, we were able to rattle through chasing, new sockets and fuse board in just a couple of weeks - and this included a detour to rewire the living room after we unexpectedly needed a new floor! Great and flexible service - and very reasonably priced.
Azzeddine was most helpful with fitting me into his busy schedule to complete an electrical safety certificate so quickly. He did this on my food trailer as well as fixing a broken plug on the lead which goes into the vehicle that tows it, for the lights. Very impressed with the service received and would definitely use them again.
Azzedine was excellent in both service and customer care. We required our house to be rewired at very short notice due to a faster than anticipated house move, as well as complete electrical safety checks. His handy work with creating new sockets and switch locations around the house to meet our needs was outstanding. He kept the house tidy following his work, moved our fuse box to a better location and provided guidance on additional improvements when requested. He provided good quality sockets and switches and installed new outdoor lights/plugs too to help with our new setup. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to have trustworthy electrical work done on their homes.Thanks again Azzedine, will be using you again on our next projects!
Really efficient got on with the work and gave us an EICR certificate. Will be using again. Thank you
I needed 4 wall lights, a pull cord and plug socket disconnected and removed after moving into a place, as well as 2 new extractor fans fitted. Azzeddine was quick to respond and available at short notice, which suited the timeline of work I had. Communication was clear over phone/whatsapp, quote up front, work was good and he was happy to discuss different options and give a sense of what would be involved in potential jobs I had in mind down the line. He also procured the extractor fans I required, so all round professional, effective and amenable. Will be returning for further work when the time comes.
The service from Azzeddine was absolutely spot on. We had a number of quotes and his came out the best. It is a smaller company so I think you get a more personal experience. Our outdoor lights look fantastic and we get lots of compliments for them.They also spotted an issue with our electrics which we wouldn’t have known without their thorough testing. This really caught out our new build developers in their lies and made them look rather silly! Thank god for these guys though who had to patiently wait until It was rectified before they could come back and finish the job. I’d recommend them to a friend!
