Sockets & light switches
Need a socket in a more useful place, or want to replace tired sockets and light switches? Send photos of the visible fittings and tell us what you want to change. We assess the request before agreeing the installation or replacement.
Electrical work needs a competent electrician and appropriate inspection and testing. Before accepting a booking, we confirm the work, who will carry it out and what documentation is required. New circuits and consumer-unit work are not part of a standard fitting quote.
Jobs we can help with
- Replacing existing sockets, subject to condition and compatibility
- Installing additional sockets where the circuit and location are suitable
- Replacing existing light switches and faceplates
- Installing or relocating light switches, subject to assessment
- Reviewing dimmer or USB-socket compatibility before fitting
- Planning several socket and switch changes together
How the job comes together
Describe the change
We review the fittings, intended positions and any known problems, then identify what needs checking before a quote can be confirmed.
Confirm the electrical scope
The installation and product compatibility are assessed. We agree the work, electrical responsibility, testing and any making good before booking.
Fit, test and hand over
The agreed electrical work is completed by the appropriate competent person, with the checks and documentation required for that work.
What helps us quote
Include your postcode and as many of these details as you have:
- Which sockets or switches need replacing or installing, and in which rooms
- Photos of the visible fittings and proposed new positions
- Product links for any fittings you have chosen
- Any known damage, heat, buzzing or repeated tripping, without opening fittings
Have photos ready if you can. Start with the form below and we can discuss any extra details or pictures needed for the quote.
What affects the cost?
Replacing a suitable existing fitting and adding a new electrical point involve different work. The circuit, wiring condition, location, access and required testing need checking before the scope and price can be confirmed.
- Number of fittings and whether they are replacements, additions or relocations
- Existing circuit, wiring, back boxes and protective arrangements
- Cable routes, access, testing and any agreed wall repairs
Before the visit
Keep access clear and have product details ready. Do not remove faceplates or expose wiring for photographs. Tell us about any known fault before booking; a damaged or overheating fitting needs prompt electrical assessment, not a routine cosmetic replacement appointment.

Customer feedback
Customer reviews
Mock reviews for layout preview
The wardrobe and chest of drawers were put together neatly, and the room was left tidy. A really helpful way to get the spare room finished.
We talked through the position before anything was fitted. The TV sits exactly where we wanted it and the cables look much tidier.
Our curtain poles and blinds finally look right. Everything was measured carefully and the details were checked with us along the way.
We had a sticking door, loose cupboard hinges and a shelf to fit. It was so useful to have the whole list sorted in one visit.
The hallway needed a few repairs and a fresh coat of paint. The finish looks neat, and the space feels much brighter now.
