Electrician – Replace Existing Wired Floodlight with Reolink CCTV

£70

Bromley, Greater London

12th Nov 2026

I need an experienced electrician to install my Reolink Elite Floodlight WiFi CCTV camera (P757W) on the external wall overlooking the garden. The camera has an integrated floodlight, so only one unit needs installing. **INSTALLATION** - Remove the existing external PIR sensor floodlight and replace it with the Reolink CCTV camera, preferably using the same mounting location and electrical supply. - The existing PIR light operates automatically when the internal wall switch is OFF. Turning the switch ON keeps the light continuously illuminated. This indicates that a permanent electrical supply is already available. - Inspect and test the existing wiring to confirm it is suitable for the Reolink camera's permanent 230V supply. - If additional wiring or modifications are required, explain these before proceeding. - Securely mount and connect the camera, ensuring all electrical connections are safe and weatherproof. - Ensure the camera receives continuous power, independently of the internal wall switch. - Test the camera, integrated floodlight and electrical installation. - Connect and configure my Reolink Home Hub (Hub 1) with the camera. **REQUIREMENTS** - Experience with outdoor electrical installations and hardwired CCTV cameras. - All work must comply with applicable UK electrical safety regulations, with appropriate testing and certification. - Your offer must include all necessary electrical materials, cabling, fittings and labour. - Remove the existing PIR light carefully and leave it with me. **IMPORTANT – READ THE MANUAL BEFORE OFFERING** Please download and read the manufacturer's installation manual before submitting your offer: https://m.reolink.com/files/docs/specs/QSG/elite-floodlight-wifi/EN-Elite-Floodlight-WiFi.pdf Please confirm that you have read the manual and can complete the installation. **The installation date is flexible and can be mutually agreed.**

Electrician to fix or replace broken thermostat dial

£75

Clapham Common, Greater London, SW4

9th Nov 2026

My thermostat dial appears to be broken - since the last time I turned the heating on it hasn't turned off. I believe it's a problem with the dial mechanism as I'm not hearing a click when I turn it either way. Today would be amazing - please also advise whether I should buy a new one prior to your arrival. Edit: please note I have a small puppy who may bark at you as she is a bit scared of strangers but she is harmless!

Juan fixed our problem within minutes (replacing a broken thermostat dial) and was very friendly and professional! Thank you very much, I would definitely recommend!
