Electrician Needed

£250

Warley, Essex

12th Oct 2026

Circuit for spotlights in the kitchen does not work. Rest of the lights in the kitchen work fine, potentially just needs one of the bulbs to be replaced, but not too sure. There are also some spotlights that need putting in for the living room after the room was re-plastered. The plasterer had covered up where 2 spotlights were, and they need putting back in. Fire alarms also need looking at. Again, not sure if anything needs replacing but they need a re-install at a minimum.

Electrician

£200

Woodford Green, Greater London, IG8

10th Oct 2026

Looking for a qualified electrician to complete a few straightforward lighting jobs in a ground-floor maisonette in Woodford Green (IG8). Jobs required: * Living room: Install new ceiling light (old fitting already removed). * Hallway: Remove existing ceiling light and install replacement. * Main bedroom: Remove existing ceiling light and install replacement. * Second bedroom: Remove existing ceiling light and install replacement. * Garden: Remove existing floodlight and install new PIR security light. Old light flashes once but doesn’t stay on, so wiring/supply needs checking. * Bathroom: Check stiff light switch and repair or replace if necessary. All five new light fittings have been purchased, although I’m waiting for a few deliveries. Ideally looking for someone on Thursday 22 October, with all work completed in one visit. These should be straightforward jobs. Please confirm your electrical qualifications, availability and whether your quote covers installation and testing.

Wonderful. Thank you.
