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.

Emergency electrician

The moment you sense something odd with your control panels, sockets, and switches, or notice a burning smell, spark, or flickering of lights, get in touch with a local electrician immediately. With Airtasker, finding available emergency electricians in your area is fast and easy! You won't even have to worry about not having any tools on hand–most electricians are already equipped with their own professional tool kits, which they can bring with them for any service that you may need.

TV mount on wall with bracket and associated electrical/aerial work

£400

Elephant And Castle, Greater London, SE1

22nd Nov 2025

Electrical Works: Move and recess two (2) power sockets to the new concealed location directly behind the intended TV mounting point. This work must be completed by a Part P Certified / NICEIC Electrician, using deep back boxes to ensure the plugs do not interfere with the flush mounting of the TV. An MEIWC certificate is required upon completion. AV & Aerial Works: Move and recess one (1) TV aerial socket to the same concealed location, ensuring signal quality is maintained. All necessary AV cables (e.g., HDMI) must be routed safely within the wall cavity, ensuring zero cables are visible after installation. TV Mounting: The contractor must securely fix the client's supplied full-motion/sideways articulated TV bracket to the stud wall and mount the TV. Given the complex nature of a full-motion mount on a cavity wall, the installer must use specialist, high-load fixings to guarantee stability and safety. Finishing: The entire job must be completed by professionally patching the original socket locations and skimming the new recessed area to a smooth, paint-ready finish.

Urgent: Repair Bathroom Light (No Power) and Leaking Electric Shower Description: Hello! I'm looking for an experienced Tasker with electrical expertise to resolve two separate but urgent issues in my bathroom. Issue 1: Bathroom Light Failure · The problem: When I flip the light switch, the light does not turn on. There is no light, and it seems like no electricity is reaching the fixture. · The task: Diagnose the cause (could be switch, wiring, or fixture itself) and perform the repair to restore light safely. Issue 2: Electric Shower Malfunction · The problem: My electric shower is leaking or overflowing water from the unit itself, not from the pipe connections. This is a concern for both water damage and electrical safety. · The task: Inspect the shower unit, identify the source of the leak/overflow, and either repair the unit or advise on replacement if necessary. Please only apply if you have proven experience with similar domestic electrical and plumbing tasks. Safety is my top priority.

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 😁
