Electrician in Cheltenham

Homes built across those four decades vary a lot, but the electrical issues are predictable. Older ones may still have rewireable fuses; mid-era homes often have a board with one safety switch covering only the power circuits; and nearly all were designed for fewer appliances than they now run.

We'll inspect your board, explain what protection it gives you now, and quote any upgrade as a fixed price.

Planning policy marks the area within about 400 m of Cheltenham station as a Major Activity Centre, and the suburb is seeing steady redevelopment. New townhouses and units come with modern switchboards, but owners still want to add outlets, lighting, data and car chargers after moving in.

We plan additions around finished walls and ceilings so there's as little patching as possible, and check the board has room for the new circuits.

Repeated tripping is a symptom, not the fault itself. We switch off and isolate circuits one at a time, test the wiring and the appliances on each, and only replace what the testing points to.

You'll get the fault explained and a price for the repair before we fix it.

If you'd like to check a few things yourself first, our guide to why a safety switch keeps tripping covers the usual causes.
