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:

Domestic electrician near me

Electrical safety is paramount when it comes to your home, and that's when residential electricians play a vital role. They follow safety regulations and make sure that all electrical components and control panels, including electrical wiring and cables, are in good condition to avoid any incidents that could put you and your family at risk.

Domestic electricians can establish power points and switches to support your household appliances. 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.

Commercial electrician near me

Not to be confused with domestic electricians, commercial electricians are mostly involved in large-scale projects for buildings and various businesses like restaurants, hotels, and corporate offices. Depending on your establishment's requirements, they can fix lighting, heating, and cooling systems or install fire alarms and other security equipment if needed.

Industrial electrician near me

For engineering projects or tasks that involve higher voltage systems and more complex machinery, it's better to connect with a licensed industrial electrician. Their services include electrical construction and maintenance for industries like factories and plants. They don't just install lights and electrical heaters. Most of the time, they also deal with different types of manufacturing equipment, including hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Industrial electricians can also troubleshoot problems and repair them as they see fit. They can even create tailored maintenance programs for your electrical motors and generators.

With Airtasker, finding available emergency electricians in your area is fast and easy!

Add New Electrical Socket

£200

Muswell Hill, Greater London, N10

6th Nov 2025

I need a qualified electrician to install a new 13A electrical socket on a stud wall. Important details: The nearest power socket is approximately 3 metres away, so a new cable run will be required. The floor is concrete, but the wall is hollow stud, so the cable will likely need to be routed via the ceiling void or another appropriate concealed route. All wiring should be hidden within the wall cavity — no surface trunking. Minimal disturbance preferred, with any small access holes neatly repaired. Must ensure the socket is correctly spurred from a socket circuit, with appropriate protection and testing. Sensible quote, availability in the next few weeks

Replace pressure relief and showerhead on a Triton T80 electric shower

£100

Pimlico, Greater London, SW1V

29th Aug 2025

My electric shower unit Triton T80 had its pressure relief go, which means there is pressure built up in the system or the showerhead. The pressure relief needs to be replaced, as well as the showerhead. Please give me a complete cost including the spares (showerhead should be a medium priced one, not the super cheap ones as that is what blew the relief..) and everything included, i will not renegotiate pricing after a deal is made, as the landlond needs to OK it. Looking at how much a new official showerhead costs as well as the pressure relief, i would also like to know the total cost of replacing the whole unit as some of them can be had (the same one, more modern i believe) in screwfix for £120.

Great Comms quick work same day replacement of the shower unit. Very pleased 😁
