Sockets and switches explained
Modern households use more electrical devices than older properties were designed to support. Adding dedicated sockets removes the need for trailing leads.
- Period cottages and conversionsTerraced cottages around Shaftesbury Park in Battersea or East Hill in Wandsworth often have only one double socket per room. We add flush points to keep everyday appliances connected safely.
- Apartments and shared buildingsIn flats around Queenstown Road and King's Road in Chelsea, we confirm the location of the consumer unit and intake before running wiring for new switches, dimmers or kitchen points.
- Garden and exterior powerOutdoor sockets bring power to courtyards, patios and garden tools in Fulham and Clapham, fitted with weatherproof enclosures and residual current protection.
What happens on the day
A few straightforward preparations ensure the installation goes smoothly on the day.
- Clear access to the work areaMove furniture, desks or appliances away from the wall locations where new sockets, switches or cabling will run.
- Consumer unit accessEnsure clear access to the fuse board or consumer unit, as power to the relevant circuits must be isolated during the work.
- Confirm faceplate preferencesDecide on your preferred plate finishes, such as white moulded plastic, brushed steel, or integrated USB sockets, before the visit starts.

WhatsAppCan an extra socket be added from an existing one?
Yes, if the existing point is on a suitable ring final or radial circuit, we can spur an extra single or double socket from it. We check the existing wiring and load before connecting.
Can you change standard sockets to USB charging points?
Yes, standard double sockets can be replaced directly with faceplates that include integrated USB A and USB C charging ports, keeping the same back box where depth allows.
What is required for an outdoor garden socket?
Outdoor sockets require a weatherproof enclosure with an appropriate IP rating and RCD protection. We drill through the external wall from an existing indoor circuit or run a dedicated cable.
Will installing new sockets damage the plaster?
Surface mounted trunking avoids wall chasing, but flush mounted sockets require cutting into the plaster. We keep chases neat, though fine filling and painting remain the customer responsibility.
