What do electrician services include?

Local electrical contractors can handle all electrical projects, whether for residential, commercial, or industrial properties. If you are building from scratch, they can help construct an efficient electrical framework for you. They can also establish new electrical wiring and control panels, and test the electrical flow for your safety. 

As for existing properties, electricians can routinely maintain, repair, and upgrade your power systems whenever needed. They can also handle electrical equipment and machinery for factories and manufacturing plants. Here is a better overview of electrical services you can book:

They can also assist with installing various electrical appliances such as electric heaters and showers, in case you're looking to upgrade or planning a renovation. All while ensuring they follow all building regulations.

Depending on your establishment's requirements, they can fix lighting, heating, and cooling systems or install fire alarms and other security equipment if needed.

Help replace water cooling system in PC

£50

Longford, Kent

6th Jun 2025

Hi! I am replacing the water cooling system in my custom PC. It is a MasterCooler all in one water cooler system, but I don't want to do it myself as I have never done it before. The rig was put together professionally, with cable management etc., and I don't think it would be complicated for someone who is comfortable with PCs.

Waiz was extremely helpful and kind, he not only fixed my PC, but he also ran numerous tests to make sure it was all working well!
