ELECTRICAL RE-WIRING
Electrical installations in properties over 30 years old are likely to need re-wiring, and some of the most common reasons include:
- Too few sockets – using extension leads and multi-plug adaptors to meet all of today’s electrical appliance needs risks overloading the circuit designed for just a handful of electrical appliances.
- Loose socket connections – this wear and tear may lead to over heating and cause a fire.
- Rewireable fuses – outdated fuse boards do not meet the current safety standards.
- Perished cable – rubber cable is likely to have been used in properties of this age, in which case it would almost certainly have perished over this time frame.
ELECTRIC UNDER FLOOR HEATING SYSTEMS
Electric under floor heating provides warmth throughout the entire room, giving a whole new meaning to heating and comfort. The increasing popularity of electric under floor heating systems is due to their numerous benefits as a heat source:
- Suitable for every type of project – new build, refurbishment or renovation
- Compatibility with different floor types including stone, tile, wood, carpet, vinyl, Karndean and Amtico
- Energy efficiency – requires less energy to run while producing even, comfortable and radiant heat
- Choose the best suited system for your project – do you want electric under floor heating to be the primary heating source of just to provide a comfortable, warm feeling to those cold tiles?
What ever type of system you are after we are here to offer help and advice to point you in the right direction with your decision. We offer the complete service from design to floor covering and finishing.
EXTRA SOCKETS
Plug sockets, TV sockets, aerial sockets, USB sockets… we seem to be needing more and more power outlets in our homes and businesses as we rely more on technology for everyday living and in our work. This is fine, as long as the sockets are not over loaded with extension leads and multi-way plugs.
LIGHTING
The range of lighting available to choose from is HUGE… There are recessed lights for kitchens, wall lights, floor or track lighting, chandeliers, adjustable height lamps and touch sensitive lighting to name a few. Then there are dimmer switches, double switches, chrome and brass finishes…the list is endless. Whatever your purchase, the next call needs to be to a reliable electrician who can install your lighting safely.
REPLACEMENT CONSUMER UNITS
Why should you replace your consumer unit? You might not be aware that your old consumer unit could be putting your home at risk of fire of yourself at risk of electric shocks.
If you think your consumer unit is old, damaged or has re-wirable fuse wire it is highly recommended that you upgrade to a new consumer unit with MCBs and 30mA RCD protection. A P Electrical can offer a free visual inspection of the existing unit and can advise you on the best course of action moving forward. We can install replacement consumer units, upgrade you to a larger type to allow for future expansion to your home or re-position your existing consumer unit to a more accessible and convenient location.
