Single to double
One socket by the bed. Now two doubles.
Singles swapped for doubles either side of the bed and behind the TV, before the room was decorated, with the least damage I could manage.
Extra sockets and lighting
How long does it take?
Usually a few hours for one or two sockets.
Will it make a mess?
A small amount. Cable is run inside the wall where possible, and the plaster is made good ready for paint.
Can you price it without visiting?
Often, yes. Send a photo of where you want it and of your consumer unit.
Recent work
Extra sockets in a two-bedroom house in New Cross.
Electrics can look fine and still not be safe.
Most electrical faults are hidden behind a faceplate or inside a wall. The only way to know an installation is safe is to test it and read the results, so that is where every job starts.

A weatherproof double by the back door, so no more extension leads through the house

Questions
How much will it cost?
Small jobs are often priced from a few photos the same day. Bigger jobs get a written quote after a visit, before anything starts. The fixed from-prices are on the prices page.
Will it cause any damage?
Small jobs leave little or nothing behind. Rewires and new circuits mean chasing cable into plaster and lifting some floorboards, and your quote says exactly where before work starts.
Do I need to be home?
For a visit or a job inside the property, yes, or a key holder. For outside work, not always.
Two ways to start
On a job? WhatsApp me and I'll reply the same day.
