What We Do — Electrical Services Wherever You Are

Domestic Electrical Services

Full and Partial Rewires
Whether you are renovating an older property or extending your home, REF Electrics provides full and partial rewires that bring your electrical system up to modern standards. We carefully assess existing cabling, replace outdated wiring, and design circuits that meet current regulations while minimising disruption. Our team works efficiently and neatly, ensuring your home is left safe, compliant and ready for future electrical demands.

Consumer Unit (Fuse Board) Upgrades
An outdated fuse board can pose safety risks and limit the performance of your electrical system. We install modern consumer units with RCD and RCBO protection to improve safety, reduce the risk of electrical faults, and comply with the latest wiring regulations. Upgrading your consumer unit offers greater peace of mind and a stronger foundation for additional circuits, EV chargers or renewable systems.

Lighting and Power Installation
From additional sockets to complete lighting redesigns, we install practical and visually appealing electrical solutions for every room. Our services include indoor and outdoor lighting, garden power supplies, feature lighting, security lighting and energy-efficient LED upgrades. We help homeowners achieve better functionality, improved ambience and reduced energy consumption.

Home Electronics, Smart Systems & Media Setups
We design and install smart home technologies that improve comfort, security and convenience. This includes smart lighting controls, heating controls, home networking, audio-visual systems and integrated entertainment solutions. Whether you want a simple upgrade or a fully connected home, we tailor systems to suit your lifestyle.

Electrical Safety Inspections & EICRs
Regular electrical inspections are essential for safety and compliance. We carry out Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) for homeowners, landlords and letting agents, identifying any faults, deterioration or safety concerns. Clear reports and professional advice ensure your property remains safe and legally compliant.

Heritage Property Electrical Restoration
Working on period and listed buildings requires experience and sensitivity. We provide sympathetic electrical upgrades that respect the character of historic properties while discreetly installing modern wiring, lighting and power systems. Our approach balances safety, aesthetics and preservation.

We provide complete electrical design and installation services for commercial and industrial projects. From initial planning and load calculations through to final commissioning, our team delivers efficient, scalable systems that support your business operations now and in the future.

Regulatory Compliance & Safety Testing
Maintaining compliance is critical for any business. We carry out inspections, testing and certification to ensure your electrical systems meet current regulations and health & safety requirements. This reduces risk, protects staff and customers, and supports insurance and legal obligations.

Infrastructure Upgrades & Energy-Efficient Lighting
Older commercial buildings often benefit from infrastructure improvements. We upgrade cabling, distribution boards and lighting systems, including LED conversions that reduce running costs and improve light quality. These upgrades increase reliability and support future expansion.
