What do sockets and switches installation services include?

Trained and certified electricians work on socket and light switch installation tasks so you won't have to compromise you and your home's overall safety. They can assemble wirings and cable, connect them to power sources, and inspect if the electricity is flowing adequately right after. Thinking of booking our switch installation service? Here's what you can expect:

Powerpoint installation

Before installing your appliances, it's crucial to secure enough power points to support the electricity flow. Electricians can help you plan, install, and replace or add powerpoints to maximise your area. They start by inspecting your place to identify specific spots where you'll likely need power sockets. The installation process typically involves:

  • unscrewing the cover plates
  • retesting the power source
  • connecting extra cables to existing electrical outlets and stretching them to different locations
  • rewiring cables to the new electrical socket or powerpoint
  • Light switch installation

Light switches are responsible for connecting your electrical lights to the power source. If you need to replace an existing light switch, your electrician can disconnect them for you. Keep in mind, however, that the replacement switch needs to have the same functionality as the old one.

We can help install new light switches if you're in the process of building a new home or renovating your bathroom or kitchen. The process mostly involves rewiring and connecting new cables to the power source and mounting new faceplates. In case you want multi-purpose electrical lights, you can also request for dimmer switch installation.

Outdoor electrical socket installation

Professional electricians can also install outdoor sockets on your balcony, patio, or turf. This way, it's easier and safer to connect your appliances, especially if you're planning to have an outdoor kitchen or barbeque area. 

It's also essential to consider the size of the landscape area, the structure conditions, and all the equipment you're planning to utilise. Electricians can handle the drill, connect cables from indoor to outdoor wall, and rewire your new outdoor electrical outlets accordingly.

Fix/Replace 8 Kitchen light Sockets

£200

Surrey Quays, Greater London, SE16

6th Apr 2024

No budget in mind so will listen to quotes. 6x defective light sockets, and 2x more in the oven hood. Seems to be an issue with the original wiring as I've replaced bulbs previously, and some lights worked sometimes, but sometimes only when I flicked them/was physically pushing the bulbs in before they then turned off once I stopped pressing. Looking for a quote to either fix the wiring/sockets, or alternatively replace them in full (if needed).

In our Master Bedroom, most of the power sockets do not work. We need a certified electrician to establish why and to reinstate power supply.

We'd require certification for all projects. Budget is for first visit to scope the requirements. Still hoping everything can be completed in one visit. - Due date: Flexible

Install two double dimmer switches in our living room

£60

Kingsland, Greater London, E8

11th Dec 2023

We have 2 x double dimmer switches in our living room controlling 4 lights. One dimmer switch is broken (just needs replacing like for like). The other dimmer switch works well for one of the lights, but hardly dims the other light at all. This light is COMPLETELY dimmable (I've check specifications, confirmed with the manufacturers and seen it done in store). So it's a mystery why our dimmer doesn't dim it. We'd like you to fix that please. - Due date: Flexible
